His proud blue eyes lost there shine as he slowly closed them and released a contented sigh. As I locked the door behind me there was no longer any sound of his light breathing.

"I'll keep my promise I swear." Words tumbled from my mouth as I curled up into the chair that my dad always sat in. Autopilot could drive Cara right now I had to take some time to think about all that had come to pass.
