Uncle Charlie


My friend's dad died earlier this week in Manila, so I was attending a mass via Zoom. Part of me remembered everything about chruch-going but I wasn't really attending mass: I was there to show up for Tito (Uncle in Tagalog) Charlie, who was always kind to me when I was his son's best friend. But it was a memorial service so there were lots of people talking about how they remembered their lost family member, and I doodled away on a notebook while some strangers talked.
