Set My Heart On Fire

21 'The last goodbye'

Aiden was staring up at the ceiling, she started to put on her clothes, she grabbed her cellphone from the bedside walking out the room and exiting the house. Aiden climbed into her car and started the engine, driving to the one place she needed to go to finally feel free.

She parked the car then climbed out, walking through the gates, and pausing at the gravestone, "Hey" she smiled and sat down in front of it.

Nancy Grace Owens

"It's been a while since I last talked to you... well, a few weeks but hey, I'm here" she smiled at the grave.

"I'm sorry" she said and felt a tear roll down her cheek, "The house it's... really fucking empty. Sophia she misses you and well... I miss you too" she wiped her eyes.

She took a moment before starting again, "I didn't press charges against Noel, he had to do a bit of time though for unlicensed weapons. I'm actually gonna go pick him up after this" she laughed.

"But this is my last goodbye Nance" she sniffed, "Everybody keeps telling me that I need to get over myself, but I just say get fucked" she chuckled again, "But they're right. I'm unfocused and I keep coming back here talking to a grave. I'll come back. But not yet" she tucked her legs into her chest.

"I love you Nancy Owens" she smiled and touched the name engraved into the stone.

She stood up and looked down briefly then back up at the rising sun, "I always will".
