"It's been five years Michael. Do you still think of me when you go to bed? Do you still keep a coffee in front of you waiting for me? Don't you miss me welcoming me home? Do you think about me when you see happy couples? Do the pillows in our bed and stars that shine like stars remind you of me? Do you love me anymore? Do you miss me? Do you even remember me?
Because I do. I still wake up to your photo on the wall. I still think of you when I drink coffee. I still think of you when I see carnivals and happy couples. I still miss you and love you the same. Do you?
Five years and still can't forget you. Still loving you and waiting for you. Still waiting at night looking out in the driveway hoping to see your car. Hoping to hear your voice. I still am hopelessly in love with you. I hope one day you will come back to me. Jason is ten years old now. Looking at him reminds me of you. Hope to see you soon. I miss you and I love you.
With love,
Georgia"
Michael closed the letter, his eyes filled with unshed tears. "I miss you too baby. I miss you terribly. I still love you. But it's too late to say that." He looked outside at gloomy sky as he remembers her trembling hands, ragged breath, pale face and droopy eyes. He still remembered her last wish she uttered before going to sleep forever. A tear fell down from his eyes. He looked at the photo frame of wife. Her smile so bright that it could make even the coldest people smile. She was truly an angel. His angel.
A knock on his office door brought him out of his thoughts. He looked at the door to see his office door to see the miniature of his wife. "Dad its time." He sighed and got up from his chair leaving the letter with a heavy heart.
There laid in front of him was his worst nightmare. His wife's grave.
"In loving memories of
Georgia Walters.
Wife to Michael Walters
Loving mother of Jason and Grace Walters."
He stood up and turned around to face the grand entrance of the grand entrance hospital. "Georgia Walters Hospital"
"Father, c'mon its time." He held the scissors with shaky hands and went towards the ribbon. He cut the ribbon in half inaugurating a new cancer hospital. "She would be proud father. She would be happy that you fulfilled her last wish" He looked behind him to see his kids. "I just hope she forgives me."
His wife died in cancer and her last wish was to build a cancer hospital.
He could only hope he achieved her forgiveness by fulfilling her last wish.
