Paige

Its been 24 hours since I said goodbye to Dylan, it hurt knowing that I would probably never see him again....my dad decided to let me begin doing school work from home that way he could keep a close eye on me when he was with me. I was sitting in my room talking with Dylan on Skype when I heard a knock on my bedroom door.

Dad: hey Paige I am heading to the store do you want to come along?

Paige: sure dad, I will be down in a minute.

Dad: okay...

He shut the door and I put my shoes on before I continued talking to Dylan.

Paige: I hate to rush, are you going to be on later?

Dylan: Its almost 11 at night here if I don't answer than I will call you back later...

Paige: okay Dylan, I will talk to you later. Sleep well....

Dylan: good night Paige.

I closed my laptop and headed downstairs and out the door with my dad following behind me as we got in his truck.

Dad: so how is your friend doing?

Paige: he is doing good....

Dad: I know you miss him but I just want you to know that we will go visit him when I get time Paige...

Paige: its fine really, you can't help where you have to live dad but yes I do miss him but we will see each other again one day...he promised that we would.

Dad: don't be disappointed if that promise gets broken, something could happen that forces him to break that promise to you Paige and I don't want to see you get upset if that happens.

Paige: I understand that daddy, I just can't stand the distance between us any longer, if mom never did what she did I would still get to see him everyday...

Dad: your mother's death was tragic but it wasn't your fault Paige, she loved you and still does, we both love you...

Paige: I know you both love me but I just don't understand why she did what she done....I miss her dad....

Dad: I know you miss her and I don't know why she done what she did...
