Third Person POV

John was at the graves, looking at both of them with a sadness.

"Sherlock why did you have to leave? You left me, Mrs. Hudson, Greg, Molly." John turns away, silently trying to calm his erratic heart.

"And you, Isis, Rosalina or whoever you are, getting your job done. You didn't have to die. You could've been fine, sitting in 221B with us, drinking tea and talking about the X-Factor and who has a bigger nose or something. But you didn't have to die, neither of you did."

He goes to turn around, yet a hand stops him.

"Time heals, yet there will always will be scars. Don't be afraid of scars because they define who you are and what you've been through."

Rosalina Pierre says, hiding in disguise.

"T-Thank You." He says.

"You always need to breathe to live. Never stop breathing, and live on." She walks away, at peace with herself.

John Hamish Watson remembers that day and that woman clearly. That woman made him realize.

Time heals.
