I drive up into a parking stall right in front of the doors. Patrick left me when he found out I'm Bi, so I've been, raising Mara alone for the past 10 years. She's 15 now.

"Mel," I turn and see Anna standing next to her and Sam's daughter, Rose.

"Hi Anna." Tears build in my eyes as we turn to walk into the church. When we get to the room we rented, I see a black casket. Frank comes around the corner.

Mara looks up at me, "I'm going to see Grandpa Gee."

I simply nod and Frank walks up to me.

"Hey, Grandpa Frank," Mara mumbles as she walks past. She was always closer to Gerard than Frank.

"She's taking it really hard," I say to Frank.

"We all are. Oh, I think it's time for your speech."

I give a slight nod and walk up to the alter.

"Gerard was the best dad I knew. He was sweet and always understanding. He loved the band Nirvana, as you can tell by his signed guitar we put up by his casket," I start to cry and I realize that I won't be able to continue my whole speech. "Uhm, sorry, uh, he-he told me that he wanted an MCR song lyric in my speech for some reason, so all I have left to say is, so long and goodnight, Dad."
