Dad. It's Cedric. It was quite difficult wasn't it? Seeing me on the floor like that? It definitely wasn't my best moment but that's okay. They say that there is an unbreakable bond between parents and their child. Even when I'm not there, I still am. I hurt you guys beyond words and for that I'm internally sorry. But, don't worry about me okay? I had Harry bring my body to you guys. I miss you guys beyond imaginable but I'm doing okay up here in the stars. Matilda and Christopher are taking great care of me. I know that you guys will be in pain for awhile- but please don't be. I'm always here next to you guys, okay? I know that I will see you guys again someday. Whether it's up here or in a other life. A parent never loses their child. I tried making you proud y'know. I fought every last moment. I passed my Arthmimicy class. It actually was quite interesting. You were right about that one. I would like it. I said I wouldn't so you get 5 galleons. Remember the time you taught me how to ride a broom when I was like 5? You had to help me balance on it barely a foot from the ground. Then it went out of control remember?  I went flying in the air and learned how to turn and control it after five minutes of craziness. I will never forget  the look on you and mum's faces. I also won't forget the amount of times you had to help Madleyn and I understand quidditch. She thought the beater had the job of the seeker and I thought the seeker had the job of a beater and then you had to visually show us the difference after explained numerous times the difference. Patience I tell you. Dad. It's like when I was learning quidditch and you learned to let me go. Let me go crazy in the air and figure it out. That's what you need to do now more than ever. Let it go. Let me go. I need you to take care of mum and Madleyn okay? Mum's been sick and with this going on it's not looking too good. I need you to move on like nothing happened okay? Attended the Hufflepuff games and graduation. Madleyn's still graduating and she wants you guys there more than ever okay? Can you make sure mum's okay for me? Giver her the meds she needs to recover and make sure she's knitting again. Madelyn's gonna need it for when she had kids of her own, which I know she will. You are still going to get grandkids okay? That's a guarantee. It won't be from me but it will be from Madleyn. Dad. I just need you to get out of the past and move on from me. I know it's hard because I was your son but I never left. I'm still here. In Godrick's Hollow. Get mum to smile again okay? Get her to cook again and tend to her garden. When she's happy you are happy. When I'm happy, it's because you guys are. Your anniversary is coming up. Go out for the night to celebrate okay? I insist. I'll watch over the house. It will be like I never left. I need you to be there for mum and Madleyn okay? I need you to be there for yourself. Just be there. Okay? Also, I am here with Christopher and planning my wedding with Madleyn that I hope to have one day. You guys got front row and father daughter dance with Madleyn. And, you guys have full control over the pictures that are laid out. Anything you want will be displayed. And the cake? It's mum's victorian sponge. I'm so excited for it. You will love it.  I love you and I will never leave you. I'm always here.
