It was the time of the year when I feel most heavy-hearted, because it's the time of the year I get to be reminded that I lost two of the most significant people in my life. I was on my way to the Cemetery slightly earlier than the common high time of people visiting their deceased. I arrived at around five in the morning, there are already a few people starting to build tents, I made my way to the far back of the cemetery where my mom and dad were buried.

They are buried in a mausoleum because we want them to be safe from the public's eye. The place was air-conditioned and it does have a rest room, a small kitchen and a small bed room at the upper part, it was designed to look like a home because I tend to spend so much time there when I was younger. I was now in front of them, they have their portraits pinned against the wall, and I smiled at the view of them together.

People told me before that I look exactly like my mom, and took most of my character from my dad of which I am proudest. At least I get to have both of them with me always.

"Hi mom, dad... how are you? I hope you both are having a good time their with God. If you'd ask me the same question, don't worry I am good like always. Although there are things that bothers me. Anyway Uncle Steffan and I are doing our best for the company and all our properties. Dad, I am now the COO I never imagined I would be, but then Uncle Steffan told me that it's going to be a good training for me to gear me for being the CEO in the near future. I just hope it's not that near cause I don't actually think I'm ready enough. You see, I found her. Camila, and I'm going to try and fix everything about us. Don't worry I'll introduce her to you guys when everything's settled. Promise. I still miss you both, and I'll always will. I'll visit more often after I fix things. I love you both so much. I'll be going now, don't miss me too much."

After a few more minutes, I gathered my things and locked the gates and left. There were more people now and I got to get going to not get caught in traffic.

When I finally got home I found my Uncle at the dining room having a breakfast so I decided to join him.

"You already visited your parents?" He asked with newspaper on hand.

"Yeah." I said smiling while waiting for our maid to set up my plates and all. "You going too?"

"Yes, after breakfast."

"Uhh, Uncle..."

"Yes Lauren?" He said now eyeing me. "Do you need money?" He joked.

"What? No!" I laughed, well be both did.

"What is it then kiddo?"

"I, uhh.. I think i'm ready? I'm gonna get her back Uncle." I said softly.

He put down his newspaper and out his hand on mine while wearing his signature cheeky smile.

"Now we're talking! About time you grew a pair of balls." He laughed at his own lame joke and patted my head like a dog.

"Why are you so excited?" I teased.
