Four years after Ted had gone, he was into random flings. On the other hand, I somehow got into a serious relationship and wanted to experience the joy of love with another man.I went home that Christmas to spend time with my family when the closet door opened again. Ted and I reunited and the situation got complicated because of my relationship with another man. According to Grandma, the door opened because our love was slowly fading. Eventually, I ended up with Ted. We married and soon we were blessed with a beast disguised as a baby girl.
There were many ups and downs in our marriage. At one point, I started living separately with my daughter from Ted. But the closet worked it's magic again and now Ted and I were like glue and opposite poles of a magnet.
At the age of fourty, I saw much in life. My life had been crazy, but I loved it. My parents were on a world tour, Poppy, Bobby and Joe were still weirdly unmarried. There was a conflict over Bobby, Poppy and Joe were both fighting over him. I didn't know about the end result, but I could assure you that their lives was filled with happiness too.
Phar was living his last days at his village due to tuberculosis. I did feel pity for him but everybody recieves according to the deeds they did in life. Grandma lived a long life and yesterday was her first death anniversary.
I sipped my tea as I read the newspaper. Suddenly, I heard loud noises from upstairs. I quickly got up and rushed towards my sixteen year old daughter's room. I barged in and saw her closing the door of her closet. She whirled around and I could see sweat trickling down her forehead. Her eyes were wide as saucers and she stuttered, "Mamma, y-you won't believe me, but I saw this cute boy on the other side of t-this closet which shouldn't exist."
"Oh hell yeah, I do believe you."
