Hello. I'm still alive, just incredibly busy. This one started as a drabble but I had an idea to continue it. I'm going to add more some time. But it won't be soon. I'm also going to finish Missing. If you want to know when look at the last sentence. I'm very grateful for all the reviews. Please keep sending them. They encourage me to write more.Once again thanks.

The first question is: What happens after?
It wasn't so bad after all. I didn't feel any pain. It was just a moment when I closed my eyes and I was there. I even began to pray. I think that maybe it helped a bit.
I saw my mom. I felt this motherly warmth radiating from her. And understanding. And then I realized how much I missed that caring, gentle person she used to be. Always loving me no matter what I did. She brushed my cheek and wiped that helpless tear that somehow was rolling down slowly. I couldn't control it any more. "Maritza." She said patiently. And then I knew. That's what mothers are for.
She confirmed then that she has been waiting here for me. All this time. And I think that's what I wanted. My mom to welcome me to this place.
I looked back and Letty was standing there. The one I saw so often in my dreams. And my father with whom I haven't talked since he left us. I wasn't sure at first. But they were both looking at me with tenderness. I felt the closeness we once shared. Before regrets appeared.
No sorrows, shame or guilt. No pain. None of these things that has mounted up during last years. Just peace.
