I've been gone for so long I can barely say. All I know now is I want to stay -The Fray, I Can Barely Say

"According to the news, a pregnant woman and her son were robbed and attacked in a parking lot
today. Raven's murderer, the man in the black hoody harmed them" Avalon recounts sobbing over
dinner. Regina gives our daughter a nice big tight hug. "Emily and Killian Snow were the names of
the mother and son. Rogers and I visited them at the hospital. Despite their injuries, they are doing
fine" I assure them. "Papa, why must we experience pain and loss?" Solomon asks breaking my
heart. "I can barely say why" my voice cracks. "Raven's family needs peace. We all need peace.
I demand justice right now" Regina stresses. "Please be patient. Obtaining justice is not an easy
task" I advise her. "Sure" my wife sighs heavily. "Emma is alive. Emily Snow is her new identity
in this world" I reveal. I lift her spirits up some.
