Grave Mistake

Be Jake:

Today's the day I visit my father's grave. To give him her note and to say a few words. I walk slowly, we'd barried them close together. Father and daughter, together again. My mother is loosing it. She can't handle the pain of losing both her children's father and her baby girl. I didn't care much when my father died, but Jade too. That crossed the line. If I didn't have Janey, I doubt our family would survive much longer.

I stop at the grave, the dirt had just been placed over Jade's casket. A tear rolled down my face as I stood there. My 8 year old sister had choked herself to death. My father died of a disease.

I heard some footsteps behind me. I turned around seeing the boy my mother had yelled at before. "Why are you here?" I said.

He looked at me with a scared face. "To give my respects.." he said.

He walked up to Jade's grave. "Hey Jade, I'm sorry for what I've caused. I got the note. I'm not happy. I thought this happening would make me happy, but it doesn't. Knowing I was the cause of this, makes me feel guilty."

Anger started to build up inside me. This boy, standing in front of me. Caused her death. He ended my little sister's life.

I came closer to him. "You did it. You finally did it. I never thought I'd find someone I hate more than I hated my father. But you did it." I said, balling my fists.

I finished my business with him. He's only 8 so I went easy. But he'll always have a scar to remind him.

I dropped the note on my father's grave, kicked him in the stomach one last time, then left to go back home.

I got back home, texting Jane and saying hi to my mother. She's been curled up in her bed for days. I hope she comes out of her hideout soon.

I sit in my room, the lights off, the only glow coming from my phone. Janey's face upon it. I think I'll visit Dirk again soon. I wonder if he's lonely.
