He saved me.

Epilogue

Graduating was not as exciting as I thought it would be, With my dad not here to be seeing me graduate and with Aaron leaving for Canada the next day, It was pretty much a 'smile and don't cry' day for me.

My mom kept on saying how proud she was that I was the second person of our family to graduate. Don even proposed me to come and study at his university which wasn't that far from where we lived, He also wanted us to move out and buy a new home, But my mom refused. She felt like dad was still with us in this home and if we sold it and bought a new house it wouldn't feel the same. At the end Don and I with the help of little Jack decided that it was time to re-decorate our house.

We wanted to buy a new house and move away to have a 'fresh beginning' but mom refusing to move out, got us all thinking. 'What if we just re-decorated the house?'.

And that's what we did. We painted our living room walls beige and a light brown. Our kitchen was left how it was. But the rest of our house looked brand new. 

When Aaron left, we both cried like two nine years old being torn away from our toys. We pretty much hugged each other for the longest time ever,before he left.

But We still FaceTime each other, He showed me his beautiful new house and told me how school was treating him. I talked about us redecorating our house and myself attending university with Don.

But afterwards I would just cry, I missed him so much it physically hurt, there was like a pain in my chest each time he hang up. 

But months passed and I made new friends, I met two of Don's friends. They were twins, Cole and Nate. They both looked alike, they are twins after all but Cole has one dimple and blue eyes whereas Nate hate two cute dimples and green eyes. Not to mention that they were the opposite of each other. Cole was pretty much the sarcastic,Clever and annoying type. and Nate was the funny and annoying one also.

It felt like I had two more brothers, with them constantly being around and helping me when  I struggled made the pain in my chest go away. 

Nate,Cole and Don graduated before I did. I had one more year left and I was free from this hell.

I sat down near daddy's grave and starting telling him everything.

"Hey old man" I chuckled before continuing " How's life up there, I hope god is taking good care of you. Um, Don graduated, just thought I'd let you know, And our little Jack has a girl friend, even though he is just 12 now. Her name is Ally, I met her and gave her a really hard time, but afterwards I started liking her and her goofy side. And Don, well he is still a player, I doubt he'll ever get married." I sighed at that.

"And Mom is also doing well, she found a stable job and Don and I occasionally work to help her with the bills. And I, well I'm holding up" I sniffed feeling the tears wanting to come out of my eyes. "I Miss you so much, It's been 2 years? and I still miss you daddy!." wiping the tears that fell out of my eyes, I continued.

"I also miss Aaron, we talk every Friday but it's not the same, I wish I could just hug him one more time-"

"what's stopping you" I heard a deep voice, My eyes widened as I turned around to find Aaron leaning against a tree, smiling at me.

"Aaron?" I whispered, slowly getting up and walking towards him.

"Aaron!" I ran up to him and engulfed him into a hug. "I- i can't believe you're here" I said closing my eyes and smelling his familiar perfume.

He chuckled before pulling away from the hug and kissing me on my forehead. "You can believe it now, because I am here" He smiled once more before pulling me into a big hug.
