Her house stood before me. Two story huge 12 bedrooms house. I expected to see her on the porch quietly singing to the radio that played though the opened window. Laying on the swing a book in her hands. The door opened and her mother stood in her place. "Slater." She hugged me and let me go up.

Her room was bare. It was just an empty pink room. Sitting on the floor I pulled out her next letter.

Slater,

Why do we live if were destined to die? It scares me sometimes. Sometimes I cant believe you were going to do it at one point.

But why does fate suck sometimes? Was I destined to be walking past that bridge? I hope so. But why wasn't I there to stop him? Why did fate not save him? Why Slater? Why?

You told me once that you felt alone in the sea of people around you. Is that how he felt? I'm so sad Slater why did he have to go? I guess I don't have all the answers I thought I did.

You promised me
