Two Is Better Than One

Prologue

" I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on..." I sang my mother's favorite song softly.I stared at her grave for a moment and finally broke down into sobs.

"Hey mom,well, it's been a year and it's time to let you go now.I'm having trouble though without you I'm lost.Dad and I miss you alot.Well, I guess this is goodbye I love you!" I stood up from the ground and kissed the top of my mom's grave.I wiped my tears and looked up to find my dad waiting for me in the entrance of the cementary crying.I ran towards him and hugged him tight.

"Oh sweetheart I'm so sorry for not saving her" He said as he was sobbing in my shoulder.This is the second time I've seen him cry infront of me, the first time was when he tried to save my mom but unfortunately failed.As you can see he was my mom's doctor and it must of hurt of him seeing her in pain.My father worked hard to keep me happy since she died but he hasn't thought about himself so he finally let all his pain go.

"Dad, it's not your fault.It was her time to go and our time to let go okay?" I said comforting him trying not to cry again.It was my turn to be strong for him,for the both of us.
Minutes passed and he finally stopped crying and looked up at me,I wiped his tears with my thumbs and said,

"I love you daddy" he smiled and grabbed my hand.

"I love you too sweetheart" with that we walked to the car with our heads up high and headed towards our new life.
Mom I hope your proud of us...
