A death in the family

I got an e-mail this morning that my grandfather passed away last night. My dad's dad. I didn't know what to feel. I've never been close to my grandpa. When I got back from school I decided to call my dad to make sure that he was okay. He sounded like he had been crying, which upset me. When I started asking him about the details and told him that I was sorry he got very quiet. I asked him if he was okay... there was no respnose for a few minutes. Then he said, in a choked up voice, "Let me call you back." That's when I got really upset. I wish that I could be there for my dad right now.
