'Y/n' Taylor said softly as she ran towards me

'Are you okay?' asked Taylor

'Yeah I'm fine, it's just that I remembered something' I said as I wiped the tears from my eyes

'Don't lie to me' Taylor said softly as she slowly rubbed my back

'I'm not lying it's just that I remembered my grandfather, I remembered the last moment we had the last moment he drew breath, I don't know what brought it on, but I..sigh.. I don't know'
