Reggie's Sister

Divorce

1 week later-

Today is my Dad's last day in this house. Since the divorce my parents havent talked unless it was about who gets what??. It feels like the house is even more quieter these days and all you could see is loads of boxes all over the place. My parents havent decided what they were going to do with mine and Reggie's stuff. I don't even know if hes going to come back and help go through our things but it dosent seem like any of them want to do it. They havent talked about me since my funeral which was really hard to sit though.

Watching everybody talk about me like i was a good person or as if it wasant my fault for what i did. Everybody feels so sorry for me and are all acting like they care about me when i honeslty dont even like half of the people there.

Anyways my dad has been up packing all of his stuff up since they got a divorce. Today is his last day in this house and he hasant decided where he was going to live but his friend is letting him live with him for awhile. As for my mom she has been going out with her friends a lot. Going to clubs and just trying to shut out her problems with alcohol. I always make sure she gets home safe, so I keep an eye on her whenever she leaves. They dont talk unless its about his moving progress and where he is staying or who gets what.

The moving truck pulls into the driveway and my dads friend comes in to help him move his stuff. I come along to see where he was moving to. I dont really know my dads friend because he lives kinda far from us but I know that he has some kids around 6-8 years old. His house is huge and they even have a guest room which my dad is staying in. All the funiture that he got is going into a storage space since he dosent really have his own place yet

Once my dad was all moved out my mom came home and i could see that she seemed a bit happier. I do wonder whats gonna happen now that there divorced but I'm glad that both my parents are better now. The house is quieter but oddly filled with joy that I can't explain. I watched as my mom danced around with a bottle of wine celebrating her victory and for just this one night she could be happy. For this one night she could forget the problems of the world and focus on this small win.

Once she went to bed, I proofed to the park where I had that picnic with Rose. I couldn't help but think about my relationship with rose. I mean how could I possibly get someone so great? She really is the best but why did wait so long to tell her? Why did I put her in this situation and for what my own happiness? I do not deserve her in any way and a part of me knows I need to let her go. I cannot stay in the way because she deserved somebody who is breathing and alive. I'm dead and faster that I realize it the easier would be to let all of this go. My heart is breaking but I know what I have to do. I know that sooner or later it would have came down to this. I really do love you rose and I'm sorry but I can't let this go on...

I got up and walked to her house thinking of the correct words to say to her. As I walk into her room there she is sitting at her desk doing some homework for the night. I freeze in my spot analyzing her as she turns around feeling me staring at her. "Omg V/N you scared me" she says holding her hand to her chest. " sorry I just - wanted to see you" I say still standing awkwardly by the door and deciding not to tell her yet. The rest of the night goes by in a blur and I know I need to let go but what is just one more night...
