After both my parents passed away, we decided to have the funeral on the same days as moms. My phone keeps buzzing all day of RSVP's from ppl saying they will be attending the funeral.

The day finally arrives. The funeral. It's going to be the saddest day of my life. I put on my black dress and boots and head to Abigail's room and see her looking beautiful as always. 'Hey...."

I caught up with a lot of my parents friends. It was pretty depressing, bc everyone was bringing up my parents, which made me fell uncomfortable. 

The funeral finished and we said our goodbyes to all the guests. We began cleaning and I came across a cupcake. It had a smiley face on it. It brought back so many memories. Dad, mom and I would always make these cupcakes and play together, laughing and having a great time. Abigail came to me and told me it was time to go. By the time we got back to her old place it was time for sleep. I couldn't be bothered getting into my pj's so I went to bed, in my dress...
