Normal is Boring {Jeremike}

Epilogue

"To my Mom and Dad,

It's been.. three years since I've seen you last. I wish I had the time to come and see you more.

How is everything? I know you guys.. might be cold down there, but.. You have each other, so I guess it's not that bad?

Uncle Vince and Uncle Scott miss you guys too. But they're old too. Soon, I'm sure I'll be writing one of these letters for them...

You two had the truest love that I ever saw in my life. Even in death, you held hands and died with smiles on your faces.

I'd bet everything I owed that Mom was afraid of it, but you comforted him.. Didn't you, Dad? You probably kissed his forehead and held him close and told him you loved him one last time.

That was probably why you two were smiling.

It was so hard to loose you both at the same time. I always thought one of you would pass, and the other would still be here so I could hug them and tell them that I loved them.

But I was at your site with the rest of the family you left behind.

Fritz sobbed into his wife's chest. Vince shook in Scott's arms, while Scott had tears running down my own face.

I miss you guys so much sometimes...

Can you guys even read these letters I bring you? Perhaps not... But it won't stop me from doing it.

I think this is the only coping method that's keeping me sane. I lost my real parents almost thirty years before you took me in. My body was broken and my soul was a child's. But you took me in and raised me as your own. You turned me into the man I told you I wanted to become.

I cried at my wedding. I wish you two could've met him.

Because then, my parents that had loved me for so long. That encouraged me to join every club at school that I wanted. That encouraged me to go over and talk to the kids and make friends.

My parents that loved me when I was all alone.. They were gone.

I hope you can tell when I come to see you guys. I always bring flowers. Blue and Green.. Your favourite colours. Right..?

I wish I could hug you. Dad would put his arms under mine and pull me close, and open one arm to let you in, Mom...

Mom would pet my hair when he hugged me.

It hurts to come here. It hurt to see you guys in that casket together. But I just reached over and kissed your foreheads with a soft goodbye.

But I can't keep doing this to myself, guys.

I miss my parents. The ones that promised you would always be here for me when I needed you. But I need you now more then ever.

So where are you?

I almost hate you for leaving me here. Almost.

I couldn't stop pinching myself at the funeral. Fritz had to stop me because my whole arm was turning pink.

I'll never forget Vince's voice on the phone when he had to tell me you guys were gone. He was muffled and in tears and, Christ, he made it hard.

I still don't believe it. After everything, I really just think I'll be able to come over to your place and smile when you guys are curled on the couch watching Tv or reading or something other then laying in a coffin under my feet, guys.

I miss my parents. I miss my mommy and daddy... I just want them back.

These flowers are your favourites, mommy... Daddy always said that his favourite were your favourite... Remember that..?

I'll never forget you guys. Never. But...

Thank you.

Thank you for giving my life a second chance to be perfect. Because with you guys, it was perfect.

Love,
Micah, his husband, and our beautiful daughter Mary."
