Three days had passed and it was the day of my mothers funereal. I felt betrayed by her for leaving me in the dark and get I couldn't be angry, I suppose she hoped that she wouldn't have to tell me.
I was due to leave the country to go and live with my god parents Shayne and Julie in Texas USA. I don't know why my mother wouldn't let me stay with Joe and Sarah but she must have a good reason.
I had left Brooks heart broken in Tamworth. I couldn't even think about him it hurt my heart to much. I didn't say much to him, I pretty much just put all my stuff in the ute and Joe drove me home, leaving him in the dust. It was what I thought was best. I hate goodbyes.
I took a seat in the church and the music started playing. The most sick part about this funereal was that at the moment it felt like a wedding, in the church happy music playing. No tear fell. I wouldn't let them, I had cried to much last time, it was time for me to grow up and cowgirls don't cry.
Oddly enough that song by Brooks and Dun started to play.
I sat there for the whole service staring out the big glass window, even when I spoke at the alter I spoke in a monotone voice, I refuse to believe that I had lost both of my parents with in 5 years of each other and orphaned at the age of 14.
The service was over and Joe was driving me to the airport. About half way Joe turned up the radio and The Band Perry song Don't let me be Lonely came on. I quickly turned the radio off.
"Sorry," I said, "I just cant do music at the moment."
"Its ok Aud, it will get better I promise," he said.
I just looked at him side ways.
"How is it going to get better! I have lost both my parents and I have no one left!" I almost screamed at his face.
"Im sorry, but its hard on all of us not just you, She was my last family, my sister. And you still have me, you still have Brooks and all of your friends, you are not alone in this, trust me."
I instantly felt bad, I was being selfish Uncle Joe lost a sister, "I'm sorry."
We made it to the air port with all my stuff and I boarded after saying my last goodbyes to Joe. He promised to call me once a week.
I sat in my seat and let everything sink in. I rebel tear rolled down me cheek but I quickly wiped away the tear and prepared to fly away. Away from everything that I was, everything that I became and everything I loved.
The End
