Lise covered Anne's body with a blanket and watched how the old woman breathed heavily, her breathing turned shallow with every second that passed.
After that, Lise turned off the light, as she walked out of the room and closed the door behind her to find Zuri leaning her frame against the wall behind her.
Her white hair was tied above her head. It had grown longer than the first time she saw her.
"How is she?" Zuri asked curtly, she looked at the closed door as if she could see Anne through it. "Is she sleeping now?"
"Yes, she is sleeping and no, she is not okay," Lise said and then walked toward the back garden, where Anne would love to plant all kinds of flower plants there. Zuri followed silently. She was just a step behind her. "Why don't you go see her?"
Zuri didn't answer that immediately, but then she murmured. "I am not good at dealing with a dying person."
