I gave him one last hug before he left.
....
I grabbed a small glass of whiskey and chugged it down before it was empty.
"You're not doing so well....what's up..?" Ametri asked.

"I'm having a break from him...a-and he left...and he knows that when I'm sad I come here...! I did something wrong!" I yelled.
She hugged me.

"No you didn't." She responded.



I was in bed most of the time, mostly on his spot.
"Please....come back...." I whimpered.
I felt arms coil around me and I began to cry.

The grip got tighter.
"Max....I miss him...." I whimpered.
"He misses you too dad...." a feminine voice said. "I know Bianca....but does he really....?" I asked.



A week had past and I've been to that therapy class.

I could walk better now.
....
"I don't want him over here. Not now. Not ever." I responded. "Why not? He's your husband!" Dad yelled. "If He was he would've stayed with me in my time of need!" I yelled. "But you love him! He's your mate!" Mavis smiled.

"Ok no more kids for us! One because it's too much. And two if we did people would freak out and a special someone would be stressed trying to remember them all!" I said.

"Naomi is with her little girlfriend. Bianca has her family. Ethan and Nathan are somewhere. And Zoe is with Ivan." Ametri said.

"I guess you're right...." I whispered.
A lady rushed inside.

"Someone has been added to the room of souls." She said, looking at her clipboard.

"State his name Marilda." Darin demanded.

"Maxwell Dunes. Age: unknown. He doesn't talk about it...." Marilda murmured.

"Cause of death....?" I trembled.

"Loss of a loved one. He thought he did something wrong so....he got himself in the gut." Marilda spoke.



I walked into the room of souls.
Max looked at me and tilted his head slowly.

"You're still....beautiful aren't you...?" He asked.

I had tears running down my cheeks.
