Goodbye Dear
She went to see him one last time before leaving. He might never realize it, but it was thanks to him that she was finally able to tear herself away from this life. Without him she might never have realized just how much she hated this life.
There he was sleeping stretched across his bed. The years had been good to him; she was glad for it. She noticed a wet spot beside his mouth where he was drooling and smiled. She smiled because she would never forget him and his kindness. Because the thought of his energy would be there to bring her energy. She smiled because even after all these years and all he had taught her about courage, she still wasn't brave enough to say goodbye.
Blowing him a kiss she turned and left, and not once did she look back on the sleeping village she was leaving behind.
