Captain Man came up to his daughter and placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Cheyenne, sweetie?" Captain Man said, in a concerned tone.

Cheyenne looked up at her Dad with tears in her eyes.

"It's okay, sweetie. It's going to be okay. I know it's hard for you right now but, eventually, you have to learn to let go." Captain Man said as he knelt down and hugged his daughter.

Just when he said that, Cheyenne hugged Swain's body.

"Ray, you made it worse..." Henry said, in a irritated tone.

"It's true though." Captain Man said.

"Ray, you need to be more gentle to her." Henry said, in a whispering tone.

As Ray and Henry were talking, Cheyenne placed Swain's body back into the coffin and she then looked up at the ceiling, with tears in her eyes.

Jasper looked into the coffin and realized that Swain's body was back in.

"Captain Man?" Jasper said.

"Yes, boy?" Captain Man responded.

"Talk to Cheyenne again. I think she has changed. She just placed Swain's body back into the coffin." Jasper said, in a eager voice.

Captain Man then turned around and saw Cheyenne standing there, looking up.

He placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Are you okay? You're awfully quiet." Captain Man asked as he looked at her.

Cheyenne then turned around. She had a smile on her face.

"I'm fine, Dad. God and Jesus both talked to me about where Swain was and they said that I could visit him anytime up there in Heaven." Cheyenne said as a few tears were dripping from her eyes.

Captain Man then hugged her.

"I'm glad you're okay, sweetie." Captain Man said as he was hugging her.

"Me too, Dad. Me too." Cheyenne said as she was hugging him, looking up at the ceiling.

6:20 PM

"Will everyone come with me into the next room for the eulogy?" Reverend Thomas Shanter said.

Everyone began to walk out of the room, including Cheyenne. Although she missed Swain so much, she had to be close to her father.

Everyone met up in the room beside the body visitation room.

The Hart family, the Hammels, the Rolloffs, and the Busbys joined in, along with Cheyenne, Captain Man, Jasper, and Charlotte.

Hazel sat down on the left side of Cheyenne while Captain Man sat down on the right side of Cheyenne. Both of them were holding Cheyenne's hands, making sure that she was calm.

The Reverend took his place behind the podium.

He then looked at everyone.

"Today, we honor a groundhog. Tomorrow, we honor the special girl who was close to the groundhog. May the girl who is special please stand up and come up here to deliver the eulogy." Reverend Thomas said.

Hazel looked at Cheyenne, along with CeCe, Cate, Michelle, Dan, and Amy.

"Cheyenne, that's you." Amy Rolloff said, in a whispering tone.

Captain Man and Hazel stood with Cheyenne as she got up.

She then let go of Hazel's and Captain Man's hands and she went up to the podium and stood right behind it.

She looked at everyone and just before she was about to open her mouth, her heart broke in two.

Tears began to form in her eyes but, when her Dad smiled at her, she began to smile.

"Friends, family, I know this is hard for me to let Swain go but, I've talked with the Lord today. He said that Swain is in a better place, up in his Kingdom. Let this be a praise. Don't be brokenhearted, like me. Be happy. Swain'll be happy if you are happy. But, at the funeral, let us praise Swain for the best job that he ever had. He told me to take his place and, Swain..." Cheyenne said, before she took a pause to look up at the ceiling and she saw Swain, in white robes, a golden halo, and angel wings.

He was chittering happily.

He looked down at Cheyenne, with a smile.

"I'll be glad to take your place. Thank you." Cheyenne said.

Then, everyone started clapping.

(Wow. So, Cheyenne finally realized that letting a close family member go wasn't so bad. Do you think that she'll be happy at the funeral or will she be sad? Please tell me in your review. What will happen next? Well, you'll find out in the next chapter so, stay tuned! Continue to review! Thanks😊
