Levi's POV

It's been weeks. It was her funeral today. It was hard, so hard. Part of me didn't even want to be there, hearing everyone talking about her. Speaking her name. I'd rather be at home, thinking of her alone. But, it's good to remember the ones we love. Remember the good times with her, the times all of us were happy, together. The times of Petra Ral's smile.

Walking through the golden fields I think to myself about everything. I'm still somehow in disbelief, mostly shocked. But I understand the way she felt. At least I think I do. She knew me to well, she did the right thing. I would have worried, I would have probably unknowingly treated her differently. I miss her so much. Although, I am 'happy', that she did what she did, it means that my last memories of me and Petra, together, are happy. Not just me, worrying about how long we had left together.

"Thank you," I whisper softly as I smile slightly and gaze up at the beautiful, clear, blue sky that is just starting to shift to shades of orange and red as the sun begins to set on another day.

Still. Maybe I do wish she had told me, I fear she felt alone. I know she had Hanji there for her but, I feel like I should have been comforting her. They way she acted in her last week, it all makes perfect sense now... No. She did the right thing, I've already told myself this many times now. She was right, to do what she did. Smart. A beautiful, smart girl who was taken from this earth to soon. Far, to soon.

This field holds a lot of memories of Petra. We would always walk here, we dreamt about one day owning a dog and bringing them on walks here, with a... Family... but, life is cruel. And some dreams, just don't come true...

I wonder what we would be doing right now, if Petra was still here... I wonder what she wants me to do now that she is gone, now that I am alone... She'd want me to be happy, right? And for me to remember her? But, only the happy times. Our dreams. For me to live the dreams we made together.

As I slowly start to walk home, alone, I think about how much I miss here. All I want to do is hold her, one last time. Tell her I love her. Kiss her. Just see her smile, see her stand in front of me. Happy...

I put the old key into the door of our house and turned it. I moved back home a few days ago, I stayed at Hanji's for 3 nights. It helped having her there. We were there for each other...

I open the door and stand there, staring into the lonely halls, of what was once our happy home. I notice something on the floor. A light in colour, tan envelope with small, delicate, gold swirl patterns lining the edges and writing in a copper pen on the front. I pick it up to read it, "Dear Levi," was written in the centre. My eyes widen and my heart sinks as I read what is in the bottom right hand corner, "from...
