So hope you like the introduction into the sequel.

Prologue

...::Sally Jackson::...

Time, something we have no control over. It had been almost five years since the accident and so far, everything was going well. I was so close to achieving my BA in Creative Writing and English which has always been my dream. Well apart from my dream of going to NYU with the man I have always loved.

Poseidon Olympia, a man who had strived to protect, care and love me with all of his being because he is and has always stayed as the same amazing man he has always been. He was currently finishing his or Bachelor of Science with an accompaniment major in marine biology.

He really planned out what he wanted to do with his life from the beginning and he even still had a working job at the aquarium whilst I spent my time at home or in the library, finishing up the necessary tasks and assignments I need for class. The workload is no joke but its worth it because in under two months Poseidon and I will both be graduating.

In all honesty, these past four, nearly five years had been a tornado of emotions, heartache, healing and mending myself, putting back together the pieces of my broken soul and in all honesty, I couldn't have done it without Poseidon.

Christmas eve, we had reconciled and slowly but surely, I had started to heal, slowly because every day I made more and more progress. If it weren't for my family, my friends, for everyone who loves and supports me, I wouldn't still be here if it weren't for all of them. Through all the months of therapy, the hours of catch up I had to do in order to maintain my grade and graduate, they stood by my through it all and in just over a month, I graduate from NYU.

I was glad that Poseidon had taken a gap year and stood by me through it all, it just showed me the reason why I loved him as much as I did. I don't know how he managed to put up with me and my emotional explosions and outbursts. At times I thought he would walk out on me for good this time but he never did. He had kept his promise, he promised to never leave me, and he never did.

No matter how many times I tried to convince myself that I tried to convince myself that I truly did deserve him, I just found myself so undeserving of that very incredible man who by some miracle still loved me even after everything that I had put him through. It was hard to believe that I had such an incredible life even after everything I had been through.

The latest tragedy was my dad having a heart attack in his prison cell, but the sad thing was, three months ago, on April 15th, he passed away due to the heart attack. My mother had been so devastated, and so was I. I had visited him with my mother and Poseidon, we had been repairing the broken shambles of our relationship and slowly, we were becoming close again.

I had sent him letters every week, letting him know how I was doing, especially after I lost Percy. He had truly wanted to be there for me, he called every Friday to see how therapy and counselling was going, to see how I was doing. I already missed him like crazy, I still struggled sometimes to remember that he wasn't here anymore. Sometimes I still wait at the phone, expecting him to call, or get all excited on Monday's for the arrival of his letter.

Then I remember that they are never coming again.

I know it's sad but it's hard for to remember that he isn't here anymore. It was the same with Percy but to me now, I know he isn't here. It took a long time for me to let go of the self blame and move on with my life like I have now. We aren't that far away from the day of the accident, the day he died. Poseidon and I would both be at home, and we were both, more me than Poseidon, were finally ready to finally go back into that room and pack it all up.

I was finally ready to let my baby go, but little did I know that the next morning, my entire life was about to change and it all started on the morning of the 6th of July where everything started like any other normal day, until there was a knock the door...
