Toss it asside

    You toss aside the letter the old man gave to yo earlier and forget everything that just happened. I mean who would believe an old geezer who attends sheep all day!? You would have to be crazy to follow an old mans advice like that. Sad to say, later on you find out the old man was found dead not too far from your apartment a day later. It seems he had another letter addressed in your name delivered to his house again. The letter this time had your name in red ink and light blue writing on the back of the envelope reading "why didn't you come. We were expecting you?" Because you didn't do anything and considered the envelope the old man gave you as junk and not as a letter to take seriously someone has died. Now you are forced to live your life with the guilt that because you didn't open one letter you are forced into the reality that you have led a man to his death and his grandson without a grandfather.
