Living

Chapter 5

(10 years later.)

"Hey Seth, I want to talk to you."

"About what dad?"

"What ever you hear about me and your mother, just don't assume things. Come and ask me first. I will always tell you the truth. Always, I might not like it nut I'll have to."

"Alright dad. What were you like when you were, say 18 years old?"

"I was crazy about your mother. And I was reckless. I flipped a white convertible once. Your uncle's just laughed and said I deserved it for acting crazy."

"Did you love mom?"

"Of course. She was my life. Then she passed and left me to deal with having to raise you by myself. I was truly scared."

"Dad, I love you."

"I love you too."

Thank you for letting me stay alive for this little boy. I am proud to be living today.

END.

A/N: thanks to all reviewers. I got part of the idea for the story from "A walk to remember".
