Two Weeks Later: Well it's been difficult but not to long before Shell left the hospital she got some good and bad news from the doctors. She was told that she can get pregnant but could end up in miscarriage. Michael has been by her side everyday. He always says if anything happens then they can adopt. Staying off her feet for the past couple of weeks has been a real pain in the ass for Shell but as long as she had Michael and her art she could always pull through.
Michael and Shell are sitting in front of the TV watching a romantic comedy movie. Michael was trying so hard not to fall asleep he couldn't stand these kind of movies he's more into thriller action movies but being the gangster who fell in love with an angel he'd do anything for her. Shelley- "Aww that's so beautiful how, did you see that? Michael?" She looks up at him, he's sleeping! Shelley- "Really Michael?!" Michael- "Huh? Wha... What? Oh what happened?" Shelley- "What happened is you fell asleep again!" Michael- "I'm sorry baby. I was just a little tired that's all." Shelley- "Yeah sure you were." Michael- "Man I'm starving. How's bout we order some Chinese." Shelley- "That's sounds good. I haven't had Chinese in two years." Their food arrives. Shelley- "Mmm I forgot how good egg rolls taste." Michael- "You think these are good my mother would make the best. Out of this world." Shell sees tears forming in his eyes. Shelley- "Are you ok baby?" Michael- "Yeah I'm fine. Just got something in my eye." Shelley stops eating, she walks over to a drawer and takes out the letter from his mom. Shelley- "Baby I know it's been hard on you but I think it's time you read this." Michael- "I-I don't know Shell. I don't think I'm ready." Shelley- "Trust me, you're ready. I'm right here with you." She lays the letter in front of him. Michael stares at it, after a minute he hesitantly takes and unfolds it.
Dear Michael,
I know you probably didn't read this when you first got it but if you're reading this now then I'm very happy to know that you haven't forgotten me. I know you probably don't wanna hear my apology for my outburst and I have no excuse for it. You were and always will be my pride and joy. I loved your father but what I wanted more than anything was for him to be a father. I never told you I never knew my father, so you see not only did I love your father but I wanted you to have what I didn't. After he left I felt that I failed, we both failed you my son. I'm truly deeply sorry. I never meant what I said before you left, I was so very happy when I had you. You are my entire world. I remember when you first opened your eyes and you smiled at me. I've never been more happy than I was in that instant. I also never told you not to long after you left I was told your father was killed in a car accident and they found a picture of him and you. I don't know if you remember but there was time he took you to the park and put you on a swing. I hope that maybe it will help you to have some closeness to him and one day maybe forgive him. I know one day you will find that someone to spend the rest of your life with and you will an amazing father. When you were six you always used to say, "Mommy I wanna be a daddy one day." and I would always say "You will be my son one day you will be and I'll be the happiest grandma in the world." I feel as though I may never get to meet my grand children but no matter what I will always be with you. I love you so much. I will see you again some day.
Love Always Mom
Michael and Shell were in tears. After reading it Michael held the letter close to his chest. Shell was hugging him laying her head on his shoulder. Michael- *sniffs* "I love you too mom." He takes the envelope and takes the picture out. "Oh my God I do remember that day. It was freezing out outside but he said "Gotta catch that wind it makes us tough." Yeah I remember those words like it was yesterday. I forgive you father." Michael and Shell look at each other. Michael- "Thank you for everything baby. I love you so much!" Shelley- "No problem. I love you more." They give each other a long passionate loving kiss. Michael- "I love you most. Shelley?" Shelley- "Yeah baby?" Michael- "Will you marry me?"
