i got up on another lonely day. its been 3 weeks that jack was killed. 3 weeks of crying,3 weeks of lonely nights,3 weks of tissues and red-eyed. i got up and went to go take a shower. i showered in cold water. then i did hygiene things. i put on my black dress. i put my hair into a bun. i put on the black veil. i made sure my face looked okay.

then i got my things and my black clutch. i walked out my flat and drove to the mermorial place. i held back my tears. i can still smell jack cologne. i pushed back my tears. then i turned on the radio to get my mind off. then when youre gone by avril lavigne played. then i pulled over and cried.

He promised me that hell be back,he-he. i kept crying. why,why i thought. then i got angry and hit the wheel. the song kept playing and then i flashback to when we first met.

 

********************************** 12 years august,20,2001***************************

i just started my senior year at presscott high(made that up dont know if its real). ever since i was little i kept moving to new places. in my senior year my family and i was staying in london,england. i was walking to the office to get my schedule. the receptionist had gave me a map of school. so the first class i had was chemistry. i was late so i had to sit next to him.

at first we was rude to each other,but we got paired up as chemistry partners. we got close to each other and well the rest is history. he was rude at first.but he was actually helpful,hes really smart. so in december. we started going out. it was like when i was with him. he was enchanting.

it feels like sparks,you know when you find your prince charming cheesy i know i just felt  i found him.i heard knocking,it kept knocking then i snapped out of the flashback

**********************************************************************************************

i looked at the window and saw a police officer. i rolled down the window and said yes. mam are you alright he asked me. yes im fine ill be on my way now i apologize for any disturbances i said. alright mam he said and left. i wiped my eyes and drove onward to the memorial. when i was close to the memorial i heard thunder. what a great way to have memorial i thought sarcastically.

i arrived at the memorial and saw cars their. im not late i thought. i looked at the clock and it said it was 6:55. i got out the car and had jack umbrella. i sighed and walked over to the crowd. i went over to jacks family and hugged his mother. then she broke down. i held back my tears,but some slipped.

i wiped them away and pulled out the hug. then the priest came and the memorial had started. there were soliders everywhere. when it was my turn to go up.(sorry idk much about military,but i saw this movie). the general held my palm and place the flag on top it. he said something about benefits,but i didnt pay attention. my mind was on my deceased husband.

i walked back to my seat.then we saw jack. my heart broke. plz jack wake up like old times plz i thought. the priest started saying things,but i zoned out. i kept staring at him. then people went up and put a rose and whispered thing to him. then it was my turn i put his faveorite flower onto him. then i whispered i will always love you and be thinking of you i whispered.

i walked back and watched as they lfted my husband coffin and placed it into the dirt. he always wanted to be buried. he never wanted to be cremated. they put the headstone on and carved it read:
