Such a Tragic 2
Chapter 6: What they been through
I just can't. I had to skip the memorial of my friends because..because of Dad. I know I've been a meanie to him but I still love him no matter what. I just can't believe that happened. I still sat there by the wall. Tears were slowly falling. I had great memories of my Dad. I was very lucky that I'd got my memories back after the accident. Why this has to happened? Things I really need is no longer there. Serena came to the room asking me if I want breakfast. I wasn't hungry so I said no. Basically all because of my dad's passing. I was thinking of killing myself regardless. But like my wife said, never give up..NEVER! I'll try...

"Hey kids. How was school?" I asked normally.
"Mom. Dad. Something is wrong with Morgan. He's been depressed since we got on the bus to go home." Cindy replied.
"Morgan, what wrong?" Serena said
"I've been made fun of by kids at school. I don't know why. I'm just innocent. I didn't do anything." Morgan answered.
"People making fun of you?" I asked.
"Yes, they were calling me a nobody, lame, no friend..you know what I mean. Just because I was just quiet." Morgan replied back. He looks like he was about to cry.
"When this happened?" I asked again.
"Right after Grandpa died. I guess I was the next target to get picked on. That's why they bullied me."
"Morgan, whatever they say about you, it is not true. You're a smart, handsome boy. They are just jealous. Jealous of you doing better than them. Look at you. You are doing a great job. Like you do band, piano, guitar, making good grades, becoming a musician. You're such an extraordinary person. You are very talented. Even know I'd never did stuff you're doing right now. You are a very special kid and know that by heart. Those people one day will know that you're doing a great job but it will take a long time. You're always been a good boy ever since you was a baby. Never ever..I mean NEVER! Give up on yourself. Never!" As I said that, I was bringing flashbacks to those days I was bullied but I never gave up.
"You see Morgan, you're father is right, you see, I've been bullied too. They keep calling me ugly, poor, nobody, lame too. But I let those bad wordings go and let the good wordings enter. I don't care what people say. Sometimes you've got to stand up for yourself. Don't be scared. Just because you get in trouble for it. We know that you've stand up to them. Cindy don't always stand up for you. You've got to go all alone to do it too." Serena fully said that ongoing.
"My dad said this too...stay you, stay strong..." I'd remembered that word he said to me. Tears were again, slowly falling. I'll never forget what he said to me if I feel down. Even if he's dead..which he is now.
"Okay now go ahead and put your stuff down." Serena finally finished.
"Okay, thanks Mom and Dad. That helped me a lot."

"Damn. I didn't want this to happen. But we've helped him out anyways." I said right after the kids left.
"I know. Hope he knows that." Serena said.
"Yeah..hopes so."

Night-time
As I was still sleeping, I still couldn't believe that my dad just passed. Someone took his life away. I tried not to cry in my sleep. All I ever dreamed of...that my friends and family that died we're still alive. Everytime I wake up, the dream fades. I was still asleep until I hears something. Something...familiar.
Max..Max..wake up bud...
It told me to wake up. From where? As I woke up, I've saw the most astonishing thing I never seen since 19 years ago.
"...PJ? Is that you? " It's PJ..afterlife.
"It is me."
I literally was about to cry. Because I never seen him for a long time. He was dead 19 years ago and I really missed him.
"You missed me?"
"Yes! I really miss you! I really didn't want you like this. But here you are. In your afterlife."
"I really miss you too. Bobby said he miss you also."
"I'm sorry that I'd let you down, PJ. It's really harsh. It's all my fault. I didn't want to let you, Bobby, and Tank be killed. Now look what happened today. Your dad died and my dad..also died too."
"It's not your fault, Max. Just because you saw us dead does not mean that it's all your fault. Life can be gone early. Like me or Bobby or even Bradley or Tank. One thing I really wanted to know. Who killed me?"
"Bradley."
"It was him for the whole time?!"
I nodded.
"Well, thanks for telling me that...your dad died?"
I nodded again.
"I'm sorry about that...really am."
"You know. But I still got what I need. My kids, my wife. Those are the people who are important to me and make me happy a lot. My handsome son, my beautiful daughter, and my beautiful wife."
"Wow..kind of wish I was still alive. Have anyone miss me today?"
"PJ, I missed you, your sister misses you. Your dad before he died misses you. My dad misses you before he died too. Also your mom too."
"I just want to know. I still wish I was still alive today."
"PJ..let me talk to him for a second."
"D-Dad?"
"Hey Max, I'm really sorry that I didn't see you. I didn't want anything to be taken but the only thing that killer tooked was my life. But no matter what Maxie, I'll still be there for you. I'll always..on the bottom of my soulless heart...love you."
I couldn't say anything but just scream to him in tears.
"I-I love you more dad! I'm really sorry that I let someone take your life! It's all my fault..It's all my fault!" I was sobbing very hard.
"Calm down. It's not your fault Max. It was actually..my fault. I couldn't stop thinking about how Pete died. So I took a walk knowing that there is people who wanted to kill someone randomly. I was stupid... I was stupid."
"Please don't leave me Dad. I still need you."
"I'm sorry Max. But I have to go. But..we will meet again."
I said nothing once they disappeared.
But I only said this:
"PJ, Bobby, Tank, Pete, ..Dad. We will meet again."
That was it for chapter 6. Chapter 7 coming soon.
