What we do in life.. Echoes in Eternity
Go to them
It's strange how
strong he looks even now as he is lying dying in the sand. He can finally rejoin
with his family after revenging their death.
He was the strongest man I have ever met in my life. And I don't think I will
ever meet a man like him again.
He once swore that he loved me. But I was week and let my father chose the man
for me.
I often wondered if I made a mistake.
Perhaps if I had fought for him, he would still be alive.
It's too late to weep over the past
I must look into the future
I must raise my son
His son
Our son...
I wonder if he ever suspected that he was the father of my child?
I hope so.
I hope that he's soul has find peace with his wife and child.
I'm glad he found happiness after our break
I'm glad he had a couple of good years
She was lucky to find a man life Maximus..
But I'm glad we never met
I don't think seeing the woman that made him happy would have been good for
me.
Sometimes I wonder what she looked like, if she reminded him of me or if she
was completley different
You're home
I
was never his home.
I know that now.
I maybe loved him, but I was never in his future.
We both knew that.
We stole the time we had together.
Perhaps this is the price for our happiness.
No man or woman can live a life without feeling it's hardness.
No one can love forever. And no man can live forever
At least he will live on in Lucius.
I will not weep for him.
I will be strong.
I will raise a boy to a man.
And I will one day hope that he will be a as great as his father.
As Maximus

The End
Short
story, but I felt I need to write a short story after watching the end of gladiator
(again)
