Never Let Go

by Letters To Her

Every year on April 15, Rose Calvert goes someplace mysterious, but where? Written at 12:00 am on a rainy day. Pointless, Pointless Drabble.

Never Let Go

I woke up from my bed, my husband still asleep. I tiptoed to the kitchen to make some toast, then I realized what day today was.

April 15.

I stood there in silence. I closed my eyes.

I'll never let go Jack, I promise.

I opened my eyes.

My heart burned.

I took passport and headed out the door.

"Flight to Southampton leaving in 1 hour"

As I boarded the plane, I figured I should let out my emotions. The emotions I've been holding in for 5 decades.

I left to to the bathroom and...let it all out.

"JACK! Jack! Jack...he's gone. And never coming back."

I wiped my tears and headed back to my seat.

As we were let out of the airplane, I headed for Southampton dock.

As I arrived...

*cue Hymn To The Sea*

I took out a note from my pocket.

Never Let Go

As I dropped it in the ocean, I smiled to myself.

Never Let Go, Never Let Go.

I won't.
