"Beth" Corey called to her. She jsuted stared at him blankley. "Beth" He walked up and wrapped his arms around her. "I know your sad, I am too. It's ok to bed sad, and to feel upset but, we all love you and want to old Beth back. Please, all I want is to see you happy. My heart breaks when I look at your face... youre demeaner has changed, your white as a ghost, your eyes are hallow and empty, you slouch, and I haven't seen you smile since he died. Hunny, Please I love you. you can tell me, jsut tell me all you feelings."
Beth looked at him with tears in her eyes, and just held him. The tears began and they wouldn't stop, they racked her whole body. A month of paina nd sorry was released. Her entire body shook and tremors she jsut couldn't stop. her breath escaped her and she jsut ended up in a heap in Corey's arms.
He just held her and stroked her hair. After the tears subsided, she looked into his face, he looked back... he searched her eyes for feeling then he found it. her face was bright red, eyes puffy, and when you looked into them you could see her dispare. She could feel again, All her anguish, pain, anxiety and hopelessness had been released. Corey kissed the top of her forehead and whispered, "I love you more than anything."
"Corey I love you, But there's something I have to do,I'll call you tomorrow." She walked into the cement statue store and bought a single stone red rose. She wanted what she was doing to last forever. She went home and covered the petals in black paint, ever so carefully. She then painted the stem green and she took some card and wrote
To my loved brother Ken,
I will never forget you.
Love forever and always Beth.
The gold ink easily glided onto the white paper, She added a little heart at the bottom. Beth then took the card to the laminator place and had it laminated. She wraped a gold ribbont through it and tied it onto the rose. She then slowly walk to Kens grave, bent down and placed it at the base.
She began to silently weep. She look up to the sky and whispered, "Ken, We love you, I love you. You'll always be in my heart. I miss you so much. Please hear me, I dont want to be happy, not without you. Is it okay? Can I live without you?" Then the sun came out from behind the clouds and shinded directly on her and his grave. The clouds seemed to smile. She knew Ken had sent her a sign. She raised her arms as a warm wind embraced her and she simply mouthed the words "Thank You"
