Sticky Notes

21 - Funeral

Dylan's P.O.V

I stood there all dressed in black, stood next to Arabella in front of her headstone. There was a small gathering of about twenty of us. Close friends like Aaron, Noah, Daniel, Whitney and Lizzie gathered round holding hands and close family members gathered round, tissues fixed in their hands.

She lived a good life I thought to myself as I looked at the headstone in front of me. I was thinking about all the good times we have had when I got called up to talk about Tanya. I kissed Arabella on the cheek and told her it's going to be okay as I walked away to talk.

Arabella is two now and she is a spitting image of Tanya even though she is at a young age.

"Tanya was...the best thing that happened most of us here and I can't thank you enough for her being here in my life. She was a successful you tuber who gave advice to others and she was a great friend. She had been through a lot in the past with her friend Alice but she always looked on the bright side trying to make sure everything had the best outcome." I told everyone crying my eyes out at this point.

"She would always ask others about themselves rather than talk about herself individually and it was never about her, it was always about others no matter what was happening. She was the best wife and best friend I could ask for and I could go on and on about her and talk all day but I can't because it's too painful." I carried on picturing her beautiful face and captivating eyes which were soon to be six feet under.

"But she lived a great life and I still love her. Just because she is gone I won't stop loving her because that isn't how it works. Another soul has gone to heaven. Can we have a minutes silence to remember the good times of Tanya and after the funeral feel free to join me at the local pub for some food so we can all remember her and tell our stories about her. Thank you" I said aloud, and looked at the tears welling in everyone's eyes as I stood there in silence. I had a whole sheet of paper I was going to read out but I couldn't because it was too painful.

But she would want me to still live a good life even if she is gone, so I will do that. For her.

This is kind of sad but after this it's only the epilogue left, but it will be happier as I don't want to end on a sad note! {Edited}
