Chapter 28

Bellamy, son...

Since you got this letter and you're reading it right now, it means that I'm no longer here.

I decided to write it and send it to Alya. You must remember her and know that she's a good person.

Gale is what he is and unfortunately it cannot be changed anymore. I knew something like this might happen one day, and I promised myself that I wouldn't let him hurt you. You deserve a life of true happiness, about being surrounded by people who sincerely love you. Now's your chance, don't waste it.

You're eighteen years old... My dear adult son...

I love you so much, dear, and that's why I wrote this letter. Alya is a good person, she's like family to me. That's why, in a separate letter, I asked her that when I was gone, she would take care of you. I know that right now you're thinking that you're an adult and that you can do it on your own. I know perfectly well that you can do it, but I'm asking you to agree to it.

Alya agreed that you should come live with her. You know that she has never had children of her own, and both she and her husband love them very much, which is why I know that they'll take great care of you. And when you slowly put everything in order, you'll find a better paid job, a house, then you'll be able to move away from them, if you want.

I also very much hope that things related to Clarke will take on a lot more color. I know how much you care about her and I wish you luck. Clarke is a good girl so I'm definitely leaving you in good hands.

Son, I'm asking you to consider my request. I would like it to be a little easier for you in life. I would like to give you a new start, that's why... I was quietly saving money for you. Alya has your card which she helped me put on and she'll give it to you when you meet. Don't charge, spend them on things that are useful for you. I know I can count on you.

At this point, I don't know what will happen to me, but if you're reading this letter, it's means I'm dead. I don't know how... But I know whatever it was... Gale's doing or something else, please... Don't blame yourself. Nothing is your fault.

My only regret is that we didn't have a better life. If I could change it somehow earlier, I would do it for you, for us...

However, I hope that now your life will change to a much better place than before.

Take care of all our loved ones... And take care of yourself... You deserve to be happy.

I love you very much, son...
