When someone dies: guilt, numbness and waves of grief, sentence 5

But nobody knew that Sunday was the last chance, and one missed visit does not cancel years of love; over weeks the sharp pain usually turns into a dull ache, and the day he forgets for a whole afternoon is not betrayal, it is healing.

Who acts: nobody, Sunday, one missed visit, sharp pain, pain, day · What happens: know, be, miss, not cancel, turn, forget · To what, where: last chance, dull ache, day, betrayal · Speech: someone speaks here
