Until now It was as if there was a void feeling in my head, like i was tired of the repetitive days and night. And when it was finally time to leave, it felt like all this while i was complete and leaving would mean losing everything that i have had until now.

julie sat beside me on the porch. we stared at the lake in front of us, thinking about all those times we were carefree, away from all the problems that we didnt know was going to come our way. "when i'm gone, will you be able to come back here? if not stay, just to see it?" she peered at me with her hazel eyes that was once filled with sparks. "this is our home, no matter what i''ll always come back, not to just see but to live my days." i responded with a smile.

i never smiled much after everything, her going away took away the tiny bit of light i had, but today i realised if i wasnt going to bring the light she will keep losing hope on herself more and more every passing moment. "I cant imagine you looking like a grandpa" she giggled as she spoke staring at the lake.

i chuckled "i'll look young even if i grow older" she tried holding in her laughter "too late already have a picture of you with a big fat tummy and dentures hanging loose like gramps". i grinned at the 8 year old smiling and holding out my hand and just like that we were off to our new place, maybe its not going to be so bad.
