THREE WEEKS LATER
Taking up my bag from the couch I head downstairs.
Opening the fridge I take out a bottle of water.
Today is the day I will be laying my mother to rest.
I asked Annah to accompany me to the beach today and she will be driving cause you know your girl can't drive.
I'm just waiting on her to call me when she's outside.
Zyer is currently overseas for business purposes for the pass two days.
Opening the bottle of water I drink half of it and place it on the island.
My phone pinged and I look at it.
Annah ❤️
I'm outside.
Me
Okay I'm coming.
I take up my half drunken water I head outside.
Opening the car door I get inside."Wassup".
"Nothing, you okay" She ask looking at me.
Why everyone thinks that I'm sad.
"Yea" I replied. "Oh and we have to stop at the funeral home to pick up the urn".
"Okay" She started the engine and reverse out of the driveway.
•••
I step out of the car with the urn in one hand and my bag in the other.
I close the car door and walk towards the beach leaving Annah in the car.
The atmosphere was calm and all you could hear was the waves crashing on the shore and cars passing nearby.
I walk towards the sea and take the blanket out of my handbag and place it on the sand.
Taking a seat on the blanket, I place the urn beside and look out into the sea.
Whew what a life to live.
I spent 30 minutes just looking into the sea and clearing my mind.
Taking up the urn, I walk towards the sea.
Slightly picking up my dress as I walk further in the water.
I stop as the water reach my knee. I open the urn and take a deep breath.
"Although we didn't had a good relationship you're still my mother and I still have love for you in my heart, you didn't portray good deeds as a mother should to their daughter but through all the trauma you were somewhat there for me and I'm grateful for that. You didn't get to see me successful in life but I know you will be in heaven watching over me. It hurts knowing that you didn't die due to a natural cause but they took you from me. After all been said I love you and continue to watch over me."
Opening the urn I empty the ashes in the sea.
She always say that when she die she wants to be cremated and I have fulfilled her wish as her only child.
I watch as her ashes disappears into the sea.
This beach was her favorite so I decided to lay her to rest at her favorite place.
