Then visitors talking about Nana’s life. because they know more about her. Luke wanted to go  they were leaving to go home there were going to Nana’s coffin. Then the mum gave him a chocolate biscuit. Luke took one bite. He said “Yuck!” It tasted like sweet twisted salty tears. The boy kicked a stone because he had no story to tell about Nana. Then the mum came and said just leave Luke alone to the dad.

Later that day, there was a lot of people who died and his Grandad and dad , Emma , Mum went to the Graveyard .  A boy put flowers that were beautiful with a gold ribbon. Luke put pink, white, purple flowers. He put a nice dandelion on top of Nana’s coffin. Luke didn't want Nana to stay out there in the cold breeze, even underground.

The next day,Grandad and mum came went back to the grave again. Luke picked pink, white,purple flowers again. It was his last flower to get from the garden.He got another ribbon it was a yellow.Then Grandad felt a fantail on his toe.
