Epilogue: Without You

               Love comes slow, but it goes too fast. That was my life. I thought that the day I got married, I could live, be a normal girl again. But life as usual had other plans. 1 year ago from today, Max died. Sometimes I really feel everything I touch surely dies. He was all I had, and he too left. So it was just me, for the world. It was heartbreaking. But even today, I have one person. Maybe, this person will stay. I have Shana. Our little girl. That day Max died in a car crash, I was in hospital. I lost him that day, but I got her. She had just my skin tone. But her eyes, her hair, her smile: everything like his. He left, but he left with someone just like him. The stubbornness, giggles, tantics, smiles...just like his. It will be hard to go through life without him. But I will, just for Shana.

                   Sometimes, my life was just about finding good in the bad. In fact every time. But that’s what made the little memories in life. To me those little things will always count. Max used to tease, that our little kid will have blue eyes, little did he know. She really does have them. The perfect shade. It was always hard for me to believe in love. Each time I did, it was crushed. I’d pick up the pieces and start again each time. First dad, then mum and now Max. I guess Shana will stay. It will be hard for her. I know how it feels without a dad. But one thing I do know is that if her dad was here today she’d be the luckiest girl alive. It’s up to me now to raise the perfect princess, without a king by my side. I’ll try. I’ll live just for her. Shana Lorenz. I didn’t change my name when I got married; I always wanted to be Shanaya James. That’s what I’d grown up to be. But Shana needs something from her dad, that’s why she’s Shana Lorenz. Let me try to live once more. I’ll be happy once again; just for my little girl. But Max, going through life without you…hmm I will, I promise. Without you.

                    That was the story of my life. It can be an award winning theatre performance, I’ll say. Better than Romeo and Juliet. I can live without a dad and mum. But this time, I’ll try live without Romeo. Instead, just with a little princess by my side. But one thing I learnt in life is nothing lasts forever. Nothing.  But… Maybe this is it... This is my happily ever after.
