Question

Last summer, after 16 years in America, I travelled to Moscow where I grew up. Mom gave me a m1.showing the location of my grandfather’s grave(墳?zāi)?. She asked me to visit it and I p2.to do it.

But I found no time to visit it until I was leaving. By the entrance to the cemetery(公墓), a lady was selling flowers. She had only s3.left. I bought them all, but it was then that I realized the map was l4..

I did not want to call my mother for I had already told her I’d gone to the cemetery. Then I found the office. An old woman looked t5.the records and found two Abraham Pikarskis with no further details.

I set off to look for them, hoping that at least one would have a p6.on the stone.

I found the two graves. B7.said Abraham Pikarskis, no pictures, nothing else.

I put three flowers on the grave in front of me and went back to the first one. I also put three flowers there.

I stood there with the last flower. F8., I put it on the grave. If this is really my grandfather’s, he got the most. If not, let this be a respect to the s9..

I flew home to New York the next day. When Mom saw me, she started crying.

“Son, thank you for visiting Grandfather’s grave. When you called and told me you went there, I t10.you were just comforting me. But this morning, my cousin called from Moscow, saying she saw your flowers on your grandpa’s grave.”

Should I ask how many flowers her cousin saw? Three or four?
