Roses... sweet roses...
That was what she had always smelt like...
My mother... I can still remember her warm and loving embrace... I remembered how I could always forget my fears and doubts in her arms...
My father had felt that way about her... that's probably why he fell in love with her so fast. They loved each other so much; their love was something else... strong and passionate--I could never feel that way...
But they were gone...
Both of them... gone. In not even a second--their lives had ended...
It was all because of some dumb-ass-idiot soc who should have been in the cooler for life with a fine for being under the influence... but no--he just got sent home, while my parents lay there--dead. If I had ever met him, I would have killed him right there.
Now, as I stare at their faces--their calm--peaceful faces... I wonder what it must have been like to die... what does it feel like, when you can practically taste the impending doom?
The sky was clear and blue--but that didn't stop the winds... the harsh--biting winds, unmercifully thrust upon me in my mind, my heart... and the very fibers of my soul...
Reality hit me--more than I needed--
My parents were dead.
