Promises (COMPLETED - Short Story)

The cold wind hit me and sends chills down my spine I shivered from the sudden cold I felt inside myself. This place looked vacant no sign of a life, the trees were naked, the road was cover with snow the only noise I could hear was of the wind passing by and my heart pounding in my chest. I was finally here standing in front of my sister’s grave.

I kneeled down and touched the tomb with shaking fingers as a tear escape my eyes I was too late to give her a proper funeral let alone saving her life. I was ashamed to call myself her sister. I couldn’t even be there for her in the time of need.

“I am sorry but I promise I’ll look after Jenna and love her like my own, I don’t know what James did but if you wrote and inform me that Jenna is not safe with him then I’ll protect her even if it means protecting her from her father! R.I.P Julia I love you forever and always” I whispered and placed the black roses down, near her tomb and got up and left to fulfill my new quest.
