Okay, guys. So, whilst writing my story One Second is All it Takes, this idea came to me. What if Fang wrote letters to Max?
And thus, this story, Hey, Max, was born. This is really just the letters Fang writes to her.
Now, onto letter one! Oh, wow. Talk about contradictions. Not that kind of letter to those of you who are scratching their heads in confusion.
Entry One...
Three Regrets...
Hey, Max. I'm not sure why I'm writing this. What gave me the idea. What compelled me, but here I am, sitting alone on the roof, the stars scattered in the sky above me. Writing in this journal I had found.
When I found it, empty and dusty, I just tucked it away in my bag, intending to find use of it someday. That was when you were still with us.
I just wonder. Why? Why did you have to go? Why then? Oh, some of the many unanswered questions of this world. Mysteries.
But, anyway.
I can't help but mull over the last words you said to me.
"Don't let the Flock get hurt." You said. "Keep them together." You said. "Stay with them, Fang." You said. "I love you." Were your last words. You last words before your eyes glazed over. Fixed on a point in the distance. You were still, unmoving, limp. Your heartbeat ceased. Your breath left for the last time. And you were gone.
"Don't let the Flock get hurt." I think your... Death is what hurt them the most. But we're dealing.
"Keep them together." That was your job. But, I suppose I can suffice, though I'd never lead quite like you.
"Don't leave them, Fang." Yeah. 'Cause I've done that before. And now... I really wish I hadn't been so stupid. But I won't leave them ever again. I won't.
"I love you." How long had I waited to hear those words? If I had known your death and those words walked hand in hand... I never would have wanted it.
I'm just glad that you're in Heaven now. Without the worries, cares... Hurts of the world. No. You're with God, living in eternal peace. Luckily.
Now. I don't have many regrets. But I do have three major ones.
One being that I left. Twice. I never should have done that.
Two being that I waited so long to tell you I loved you. I was a coward before.
Three being that I wasn't able to save you.
If only I had saved you.
I must go, now. Iggy and Gazzy are arguing about something. Again. Hopefully they won't throw anything this time.
Fly on,
-Fang
Another depressing story, brought to you by Kai. *Sigh* But, in my defense, it's a companion to the first depressing story. So... Yeah. I suggest you read that story. It'd be good for you. Well, maybe not, but you'll like it nonetheless.
May you keep a strong heart and a steady mind,
