I had some time to myself due to getting off work early, since it was still light out, I decided to go to the cemetery to talk to Isaiah.
I'd have to pick up Mason in about in hour from my moms since she was going out with a friend of hers and didn't want to be late, but I hadn't been to the cemetery since the funeral and I promised that I'd come talk to him.
After purchasing some flowers from the local flower shop, I made my way there, it felt so weird being here by myself but I needed to come tell him what's been happening.
Finding his stone wasn't easy at all, it took me about ten minutes to do before I finally just got out of my car and walked until I found it, stepping on tombstones and apologizing for it as I approached his grave.
Letting out a breath I rested the flowers against his tombstone before sitting in the dry grass, I wasn't worried about my jeans getting dirty I'd just brush them off when I stood.
Reaching my hand forward my fingertips grazed against his name engraved into the large grey stone.
The tombstone displayed his full name and birthday along with the day he passed, I felt a lump forming in my throat as I blinked away my tears.
"I'm so sorry that I'm just now coming to see you, things have been crazy... As you know and I'm sure you can see Mason is now three, baby boy is so smart.. too smart sometimes." I chuckled before sniffling. "I've decided to go back to school, but I'm just not sure of what I want to do as far as a career, you know me indecisive as hell." I said wiping a tear that rolled down my cheek. "God, Isiah I miss you so much, somedays are easy but others are so difficult, but I know I have to put on a brave face for Mason." I smiled softly thinking of my baby boy. "Now before you get all upset at me, I met a guy... his name is Chris and he's so sweet, caring, compassionate. He honestly reminds me of you and I feel like you brought him into our lives for a reason... I think I might even be falling for him. I hope that doesn't upset you.. I mean I don't think it would especially when I feel like you and God are tag teaming at this point." I sniffed before hearing my phone chime in my pocket, already knowing who it was I kept talking.
"Anyway, I love you and maybe you can send me a sign that everything's going to be alright, lately I've been feeling down and I know I should probably go to Chris about it or maybe pray, but.. I don't know Isaiah..." I paused as my voice cracked, I put my head in my hands and stared to cry. I hiccuped and wiped my eyes before seeing a red robin sitting on his tombstone, I furrowed my brows as the bird hopped closer to me and landed on my leg. I pet the little bird softly and smiled knowing that Isaiah was with me.
"I love you, keep watching over us." I whispered as the bird flew away. I stood to my feet and brushed my jeans off before kissing my two fingers and pushing them against the tombstone before leaving.
