Ten years later...
"Mom? Are you ready for dinner?" Audrey asks. I nod, breaking my gaze from the corner. I haven't really felt much purpose since he died. Sure I fed and helped the kids grow, but once they were old enough they did a lot on their own.
I didn't mean for it to be this way, but I'm always weighted by pain. I've tried hard for it to go away, nobody should treat their children as I do. I wish I could love them more, but each time I look in there faces I see him.
I push down my recliner and sit at the table. The only light in the dining room is the small lamp overhead, reminding me of an old time classroom. Audrey gives Tobias and I plates of baked mac and cheese and corn.
We eat quietly and slowly, only talking to ask for salt or a napkin. Audrey keeps glancing at me, but she does all the time.
I finish before them, and head back into my office. Audrey never remembers much of her father. I like that I am the only one that truly shared that connection with him.
While I'm sorting through bills, Tobias comes in to say goodnight. He never has even asked about his father. I prefer it that way.
This is how it has always been, this is how it will always be.
Short epilogue, I know, and honestly pretty depressing. Kind of like Katniss' mom. Wow this is really depressing.
FUN FACT, my dog died. Sad I know, she was 16 so I'm kind f sad right now and all I'm doing is writing.
BYE INITIATES!!!
