Beautiful End

Ceteres Baribus

Mrs. Brendon

I had the shock of my life when I entered the room and saw Sandra sitting on the couch, It took me sometime before I recovered and went to sit by her.

Elvis had still refused to come in, saying she was a ghost.  He gathered the courage to after he realised she wasn't.  I stood there and watched as she began to apologize for causing my son pain.

All these years, we thought she was dead, my son had grieved over her for so many years, and then after all these years, she appears out of the blues and wants my son to forgive her.

I watch on as she goes on her knees pleading for forgiveness, one thing is true about her though, she's truly  sorry for her actions. I pray my son forgives her and things go back to how they used to be before her disappearance that tore my son apart. I excuse myself as the mood between them got intense. I spot my date at the entrance, and beckon to him.

He immediately comes towards me, holds my hand and walks me gently to his car.

' Well that was something  ', he said as he opened the door as a true gentleman for me. I took my seat and he zoomed off.

We went to his apartment. As soon as our feet were in the doorway, he captured my lips in a kiss. We moved gently at first, then it got intense as he led me to the couch, God!, it had been so long since I felt this way for someone else.

I have always had this notion that my late husband will never be replaced. He was my ideal man  from the day we started going out, to the day he died.

He was my everything, and I didn't know what to do sometime after his demise. For once, I was glad I met him.

==========================================================

I got to my apartment around seven in the evening to meet the  two lovebirds on the couch asleep and cuddling each other. I smiled as I went to shoo them away to bed.

I woke up the next morning fully refreshed as I went about making breakfast and humming beautiful day by Jamie Grace undertone.
I felt a presence and turned.

Sandra stood at the entrance of the kitchen smiling, I smiled back as she came to join me. ' can I help ' , she asked as she took the plates and went about setting the table without waiting to hear my response.

Breakfast was oat with eggs and bread, I enjoyed it, that and the comfortable silence that reigned. Elvis was sitting by Sandra as he gazed into her eyes. Sandra was too concentrated on her food, to notice.

After breakfast, Sandra left for her room, as Elvis stayed behind to listen to how my date went. 

I headed for work shortly after, but not before telling Sandra to be careful with my Son. He had been through so much, and I didn't want him to go through what he went through a few years back again.

We have come a long way as a family, and I didn't want anything to jeopardize that.
