A Day of Remembrance by Eryk Wenziak

He did something else. “Was THAT it?” he asked all a third time. “No,” all said, “I apologize. It was indeed something.” “I wish you’d told me that, then, all,” he said. “I knew it was something!” “Well, you see, after you finished doing something else I remembered it was something that I wanted you to do, not another something or something else which, had I remembered it was something from the beginning, I would’ve stopped there and congratulated you on doing something. Again, I apologize for all this.” “Then, is that all, all?” “That will be all,” all replied.
