"Those sparkly blue skies,
Those teary blue eyes,
In the corner she silently cries,
Smiling she gracefully lies."
(original)

"Bye" I say hugging Jane.

"Bye see you soon" she says smiling.

"I love you"

"I love you more" she says before shutting the door. I walk to the car with the help of my mom and she helps me inside.

"So mom how are you?" I ask her after she starts driving.

"Oh well sweety I'm fine" she says gently smiling at me.

"I'm really sorry sweets I love you so very much. I just wish all this wasn't happening to you to your sister. She doesn't know everything. She's living with your aunt right now. She'll probably live there for a while. I told her that your father and I are filing for a divorce she just was very upset. I hate seeing you kids like this." She says caressing my face.

"It's okay mom I love you too and it's not your fault at all" I tell her. Seeing my mom so helpless is devastating. She has always been strong and confident but now she just looks so exhausted.

She's wearing her work clothes, a grey pant suit. Her hair looks like se hasn't combed in days. Her eyes look red and her dark circles more prominent. Her face looks pale and her eyes look lifeless and dull.

What happened to the mother I once knew and looked up to. She's struggling.

We reach home and my mom helps me out.

I plop down on the sofa as my mom sits next to me.

"Hey sweaty if you want anything I'm right in my room just call out my name and I'll be here before you know it." She says and kissed my forehead. She leaves me alone and I log into Netflix.

"Sweets wake up its time for your medicines"
I hear someone say.

"No please let me sleep" I whine

"Beth wake up" my mom says and I open my eyes with some difficulty and look at my mom sitting next to me with my medicines.

"Do I have to?" I ask making a puppy dog face.

"Yeah" she says shrugging.

"Okay" I say and take my meds.

"Okay now you can sleep" she says and puts the blanket over my body.

"Night mommy" I say.

"Bye sweety " she says and I let sleep take over me again.

I wake up to the sound of shuffling. I immediately shut my eyes as the brightness in the room blinds me.

I slowly adjust to the light and get up only to fall back. Right my leg I forgot. What time is it anyway?

"Mom" I call out and she comes rushing in. She seems worried.

"Hey sweety how you holding up today?" She asks nervously.

"I'm fine mom what happened your seem worried?" I ask her concerned.

"Oh honey you've been sleeping for 16 hours. It's 12 already." She says. "It was a long night"

"What happened mom you're scaring me" I tell her.

"Oh sweety it's about Jane" she says taking a deep breathe as her eyes fill with tears.

"What happened mom" I ask her fear visible in my voice.

My heart feels heavy and I feel a lump forming in my throat.

"Jane had an accident yesterday. She held up sweety, she fought so much." My mom says. Dread fills me and I feel like all the air is sucked out of my lungs.

"She passed away today at 11:07" she says.

My mouth starts feeling foul and my heart feels like it's been smashed.

"Beth" I hear my moms voice but it's faint.

My surrounding start to blur I try to get up but everything is spinning out of control. My mind gives up and I faint.

So how are you guys doing. I know you did not see that coming.

Question of the day

Are you sad about Jane dying?

You answer: I'm so sad. I really like her character but I just could not do anything with her anymore and I wanted to give her a proper goodbye.

In the loving memory of Jaqueline Amara Mikealson (Jane)

Till next time

Bye for now ❤️
