Dear Daddy....

Alone once again

June 14, 2011

Dear Mom and Dad,

Hello! How are you? What have you've been up to in the heavens? Is it cool in there? Do you sing and dance with the Angels? I have heard and read that, they love to sing in the heavens. I hope you do too. I always remember when we used to watch "I am singing in the rain", when I was 11. It makes me happy and makes me forget all the sadness and pain.

Mom, Dad.....I am so sorry if I haven't written sooner. A lot of things happened. It was like 5 days ago was my Graduation Day in Dalton as a Senior High School. I should be happy, because I am the batch Valedictorian and also I got the award as the best Warbler Captain of the year. But......I don't feel any happiness. I felt sadness and Pain.

I know that you are aware of the change of my name right? As Sebastian Garrick Smythe. But I know you also understand why I have to. Because, of my second parents - Antoine and Lilian Smythe. They were really nice and I love them so much as much as I love you both, please don't feel jealous, okay? And Mom, I am glad that you have a cousin like Mama Lilian. You know Mama Lilian and Papa Antoine, is so very patient with me during my first year of staying with them. I am so glad of the kindness of their heart. Because they know I am still grieving....missing you both so much.

Mom, I am glad that Mama Lilian is as loving as you.

Dad, I am glad that Papa Antoine is as strong, brave and full of wisdom like you.

Bianca, also loved me as her older brother. And I love her too, as my younger Sister.(I even mastered the art of Sign Language to communicate with her, I love it). And I helped Mama and Papa take care of her. I love her so so much.

But I guess these 5 wonderful years, will just be a part of memory.

Again....

I am all alone.....

Am I not really that lucky to have a family?

Sometimes I question....

Why?

Don't I deserve to be happy again?

I lost both of you 5 years ago and still, the person who did this is still out there.....

Mom....Dad....what should I do? Here I am suffering from the Flu....I should be with them....I should have met you sooner. But I guess Death hates me.....

I feel so alone....

I can't take this....

Love and missing you so much,
Your beautiful Boy Barry

Everyone, who is currently in attendance at the Senior High School Graduation gave their warm round of applause, as Dalton's Batch 2011 Valedictorian stood in all his glory on the stage. With a big grin on his face, bright green eyes shining with so much proud, love and joy. There were also shouts that can be heard from the background "That's our Captain! We live while were young! We love you Seb!" as the Warbler's cheered with glee. 'I love you too guys! ' as Sebastian mouthed them a response from afar, with his cheeky grin and wink, accompanied by a playful thumbs up.
