Blank

"Hello, how are you? I'm sorry, I have bad news but I have to tell you. Our friend ____ has passed away and her family wondered if..."

After that point, it was all blank. All of it. All I could see was her face and her smile. Nothing else seemed real. One of the sweetest people I know, the most gentle and giving heart. 

Have we been pranked? Was there a mistake? 

And then I couldn't remember the last time I saw her. All our conversations started evaporating from my mind, almost as if my brain has envoked a defense mechanism to distance itself from the pain at hand. I just couldn't remember a thing.
