We could have a life, us two.. (Completed)

Grief

Finding herself once again in a black mourning dress, a widows cap with a veil that Louise brought her Nellie sat on the settee looking at the place where he always was sitting. His armchair that now was empty.. She denied anyone from sitting there and no one ever could. It was like Sweeney took the life of her with him. Her heart stopped beating the moment she recieved the news. The moment they made these clocks stop in their house. Stopping the clocks at the hour of deathhe like it usualy was done during mourning. She actualy didn't know what she was doing between this people that came to offer their condolences when they heard the terrible news and helping her prepare the house for mourning. Her windows and mirrors drapped in black cloth, her curtains where drawn, their wedding picture layed face-down. She felt like he would come in at any moment and be mad at what the hell was going on here. She still couldn't prosess anything that happened or believe Sweeney left her for good. She was in completely denial and wouldn't be able to believe all of this unless she sees the corpse of her much loved husband.

The news she last night recieved ripped her heart out of her body. She felt so much pain right now, totaly lost and desoriented without him. She had lost people in her life before but it was nothing compared to this. Loosing the love of your life was so much worse nothing could describe the pain she felt at this moment. A couple of tear rolled down her cheeks thinking about the moment she opened her eyes after she fainted when receiving the horrible news.

"Victoria"
"Victoria"

"Mrs Lewis please open you're eyes"
She heard her name echoing while someone slapped her cheeks in a more gentle like way. She then recalled the familiar voice that was calling her. She opened her eyes and blinked a few times contemplaiting where she was, was this a nightmare? It must be.. she then started to realise the picture before her eyes. People gathered around her, one of them was a familiar face.. Louise.. She then moved to get in to a sitting position from where she was laying on what was the bench looking around to make sense what happened.

"Thank god" Louise looked with worried eyes seing her waking up. She was so afraid something would happen to them luckily they were just in time to catch her when she fainted. Than she knew she had been unconscious after hearing the devastating news. She wanted this to be a nightmare, but the fact that Louise looked like that and she saw the group of people as she looked around sadly told her that this was not a nightmare just the opposite it was real.

She squeezed her eyes shut remembering her own despared heartbraking cries just before everything went black.

"No you're lying he isn't death! You're lying!" She cried her brain denying the possibility of him leaving one morning and not returnig back. He couldn't leave her like that, not now, not when everything was alright, not when she carried a piece of him inside her. Louise hold her on her arm thightly afraid she would faint again.

"Where is he? You're lying he can't be death!" She wanted to see him otherwise she never would believe him going for good.

"I'm sorry, my sincere condolences mr Lewis" one of the officers that came to there spoke to her "They will bring the bodies home for a final goodbye and we can give them afterwards a proper burial." The man says with so much pitty.

"I want to see my husband, I wan't to see him! While she was crying hopelessly, the other people didn't quite know how to react. The scene playing out before their eyes was heartbreaking and so there was not much to do but let her grieve her loss.

"Dear please try to be calm" Louise could not face the sight of her as her knees weakened and she sank down in the sand sobbing heartbreakingly, her tears of sadness falling like a waterfall as she sobbed, her shoulders trembling with the force of her emotions. Crouching at her side Louise held her close and stroked her back.
