This is the next part ot our story. If you have any questions, please ask me. ^^
「In another picture we've settled down in the green rocking chair in the conservatory. That picture has hung out here ever since Dad died. I'm sitting in the green rocking chair now. I'm trying not to rock because I am writing in a large exercise bok. Later on, I'll enter it all into Dad's old computer.
There's a tale to tell about the old computer, too, but I'll come back to that later.
It's always been strange having all these old pictures around. They belong to a different time from now.
In my room, I've got an entire album of photos of Dad. It feels rather weird to have to have so many images of a person who is no longer alive. We've got Dad on video too. I think it's a bit scary listening to his voice. My Dad had a really deep voice.
Maybe watching videos of people who aren't here anymore, or who've passed on as Grandma puts it, should be made illegal. It doesn't feel right to spy on the dead. I can also hear my own voice on some of the videos. It's squeaky and high pitched. It reminds me of a little chick.
That was how it was in those days: Dad was the bass and I was the treble.
In one of those videos, I'm perched on my Dad's shoulders trying to snatch the star from the top of the Christmas tree. I'm not much more than a year old, but I very nearly manage to yank it off.
When Mum's watching videos of Dad and me, she'll sometiems sit back and laugh out loud, even though she was the one who held the video camera and did the filming. I' don't think she should laugh when she watches videos of Dad. I don't think He'd have been happy about that. Perhaps He'd have said that it was breaking the rules.
In another video, Dad and I are sitting in the Easter sunshine outside our cabin at Fjellstollen with half an orange each. I'm trying to suck the juice from my half without peeling it. Dad's mind is possibly on some very different oranges; in fact I'm pretty sure it is」
If people like the story, I'll continue it. If you don't, we can try something different. Whatever helps you with English. ^_^
