•Issachar•

I walked down the street, humming, as my hands stuck in my pockets. As I went to call Juno back, my phone buzzed. I looked at the notification, and saw the text message.

Juno: Look up.

I scowled at the text, as I had a specific destination to go to. Nevertheless, I looked up, to be met eye to eye with Juno.

Tears streaming down my face, I ran towards her. I'm not usually sentimental, or emotional, but I haven't seen her in seven years.

"Issachar..."

"Juno."

She wrapped her arms around me tightly, and placed her head over my shoulder.

"Oh, I've missed you Juno." I spoke softly and placed my hands on her back.

"I've missed you too. You know why I came back, right?"

"No, I don't."

"It's daddy, Isa."

"What about him..?"

"He's gone."

I stopped breathing. He can't be gone. He can't.

"Tell me you are joking. PLEASE. TELL ME YOU ARE LYING!!" I shook her shoulders heavily.

"I'm not. I'm sorry Isa. I know how you and him were close. It will all be okay. We can get through this. You and I."

I nodded slowly as I engulfed her into another hug.
