Hey, I know it's a short chapter, but it has major plot factors. Please R&R...no reviews no updates...Sorry but life is busy...
The rest of that week flew by and we were on a plane on our way back to Glen Oak.
I was coming back for a week in the summer to see Aunt Susan, and I had promised her I would give Dad and chance and I had even promised to give Annie and chance too.
The plane ride seemed to take forever this time.
When we landed, Dad and Annie were at the air port to meet us.
I called Aunt Susan to let her know we had made it okay, and then we headed home.
I sat down and ate dinner with the whole family that night. After dinner, I went up to my room and unpacked the rest of the way. Lucy came up and said," How are you feeling?"
I said with a smile," Peaceful, it doesn't hurt to be here anymore."
She said," I'm glad."
Annie walked in and said," Hey, Sarah, can I talk to you?"
Lucy said," I'll be in the apartment if you need me. Good night."
I said," Good night Lucy."
Annie pulled up my desk chair and sat down.
She said," I just want to let you know that I'm here if you need someone to talk to. I lost my mom too. I know it's not the same thing, I knew my mom was sick, and it was sudden, but she had lived a long full life. I know what it's like to miss your mom though. I just want you to be able to feel comfortable talking to me. I'm here for you, and I do love you."
I said," Thank, and maybe with time I'll be able to tell you I love you too, but for now, can we just work on being friends?"
She said," That sounds like a plan to me. Good night Sarah."
She hugged me and walked out of my room.
My dad was the next one to walk in.
He sat down on the bed beside me.
He stared off into space and said," I miss her sometimes too. The past is what it is, and neither of us can change it. You will always be my baby girl Sarah. I love you. I have always loved you."
I said as a tear slipped from my eye," I love you too Daddy."
We held each other for a few minutes and then he said," Good night."
I said," Night dad."
He left and my room was quiet. I whispered," Good night mom."
Then I turned off my light.
