Broken Promises

Epilogue

Dearest family and friends,

You probably never imagined this happening, and to be honest neither did I. Well, until a few night ago. I decided that a life without Blake would be torture for me. I want to be with him and now that you are reading this letter, I am. And I am very happy. I don't want you to be sad and cry over me. I don't want your lives to stop because of my decision. You need to live on and keep mine and Blake's memory alive. If you stay alive that way you'll be keeping us alive too. I will always be there looking over you and guiding you as you are the most important people in my life. 

Lucy, I am so sorry for everything. Me and you, we have known each other all our lives and it was a great experience to be able to grow up with you (Even though we never really grew up). You need to go and follow your dreams and live a great life. I know you can get through this. You're so strong, you don't even realise it. 

Nicole, thank you so much for everything. You have always been a great friend to me and for that, I am so grateful. You finally stopped being so scared and you started embracing the feeling of being in love. Don't let go of that feeling as there isn't a better one in this whole wide world. 

Lauren, you are a great daughter, a great friend and a great sister. You can get through anything because you are such a strong and loving person. 

Mr and Mrs Bailey, you have raised two amazing kids. In my eyes, you were the perfect family. Don't let that fall apart. Keep fighting for each other and loving each other. I know that a huge piece of it disappeared along with Blake but you can fill that hole with love. Let this tragedy bring you closer and let it make you stronger.

Savannah, Vanda, Jake and Spencer, you have been there at my lowest point. When I thought I could never be happy again you made me laugh and smile. The month I spent with you was one of the best times in my life and you all mean so much to me. Remember to keep following your dreams. Spencer, this doesn't change anything I told you. You need to keep living your life. One day you will find someone amazing and along with them, you will find happiness. 

Auntie Marissa, you showed me a different way of life. You are such an inspirational person and I am so proud of everything you achieved. And by the way, I completely agree. We are all stars, shining at our own brightnesses. Well seems like my star has gone dark and that's why you all have to shine to make up for it. Being yourselves and working hard for everything you want. 

Mum and Dad, I am so sorry for doing this to you. I hope you can forgive me. You are so strong together and I always looked up to you. You made me the way I am and for that, I am so thankful. 

I hope all of you can forgive me for this and that, as I mentioned before, keep our memory alive. We're together at last. And I couldn't be happier. 

Perhaps one day we will all meet again, up there. Until then, believe that I am happy and even though you won't be able to see me, I'll always be there, with Blake by my side. I love you all.

With love

Cassie Rose Valentine.
