Abner & Me
“MY MOTHER SCREAMED IN MY EAR AS I carried her across the cemetery.
I didn’t know where I was going. I didn’t know what I was going to do. I just wanted to get the two of us away from that flag before we got killed.
My mother is skinny. She weighs about a hundred pounds. I know that because she’s constantly telling me, “I have to go on Weight Watchers. I’m a hundred pounds. I’m so fat.” Women are always complaining about how fat they are, even if they are skinny. It felt like I was carrying a fe...ather. Bullets, explosions, and bombs going off all around have a way of distracting you from minor inconveniences, like trying to run through a graveyard while carrying a one-hundred-pound woman.
I almost tripped over a bunch of tree roots. Something landed ten yards to the left of me and exploded when it hit the ground. I kept running. If we were going to get killed, there was nothing I could do about it. I had to make a run for it.
I was looking around frantically for a place for us to hide from the explosions.MoreLess
