I went back to the hotel, when I opened the door and a letter came falling down. I let it fall and then I picked it up. Yet again it was father,

                Dear Ariel,

Thanks for wanting to meet up with me. How about tonight at eight? Anyway baby girl it’s sad to hear that you’re not dating him. He seems like a nice guy but I don’t want to tell you how to run your life. I can’t wait to see you

From, dad

                 I got worried. I haven’t seen my father in over four years!  I put on my black suit with bonze coloured beads, my flights and threw my monster book bag over my shoulder and walked out the door. I walked to the café. My hand were shaking and my palms were sweaty. I turn the knob and waked in. I looked at the far right corner of the shop… there he was sitting there drinking his coffee. I slowly walked towards him.

Um Hello” I said awkwardly

“Ariel?” He said standing up

“Yeah, it’s me” I said

“Wow you’ve grown so much.” He said with a huge smile on his face

“Yep. I see you’ve gotten better”

“Yeah, I was rehab for almost a year.”

“Well I’m glad” I said giving him a small smile

“Valentin-““Don’t call me that” I hissed

“Ariel, I’m sorry for everything I’ve done to you. I truly am.” He said“I know you are.  Do you remember when I was little and I got into a fight?” I asked and he nodded “mum said Ariel don’t waist your time filling your heart with hatred when you can fill with love. When you forgive,it doesn’t mean you forget. You forgive because that’s what god asks you to do and you don’t forget because every memory is a lesson learn and that makes you” he simply nodded “Mum said to forgive and forgive I will but she also said don’t forget” I said getting up to leave

“Wait… Ariel! I found this song to your mum wrote… I thought you might want it” He said putting it in my hand

“Thank you’ I said and went on my way

                I got back to the hotel and opened to folded paper.  It was a music sheet with lyrics. I pulled out guitar and started playing with being cords

You're not alone

Together we stand

I'll be by your side, you know I'll take your hand

When it gets cold

And it feels like the end

There's no place to go

You know I won't give in

No I won't give in

Keep holding on

'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Just stay strong

'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

There's nothing you could say

Nothing you could do

There's no other way when it comes to the truth

So keep holding on

'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

So far away
