Chapter One
“I miss her too much, Dad!” I cried into his arms.
“We’re making it through, hun. I know it’s been hard, but look at how far we’ve come.”
The tone my father used to get through to me made me feel like a weight had been lifted. Just one word escaping his mouth could make life feel a tad less stressed. The stress needed to be taken away from me, especially after all that has happened these past couple of months. If I didn’t have my father with me, it would’ve seemed like going on was a miracle.
Losing her, my own mother. It was a nightmare I couldn’t wake up from. We had always been so close, never wanting to be apart for a minute. Even when we found out she was diagnosed with cancer, we still weren’t apart. When she was in the hospital, dying, we still couldn’t be separated. Now, we’re in two different worlds.
“It’s been just a little beyond hard,” I whispered.
“It has been for all of us, Beach. You’re not alone in this,” He clarified.
I pulled myself out of his embrace and walked closer to the ocean. The cool water came closer and sunk into my sneakers. I looked back at my father. I turned back in the other direction as soon as I saw the tears streaming down his face. Anytime he cried, it made me feel more guilty. I couldn’t help but bring up my mother’s death and how it’s been affecting me. The painful memory always made him feel incomplete.
“I love you, Mom,” I whispered to the sky.
“Bridget, maybe we should head back home now. It’s getting chilly out,” My father called out.
“Okay, Dad.”
I wiped away my remaining tears. I noticed he did the same, only he tried to hide it from me. He never wanted me to know. I ran closer to him and slowed down when I was finally by his side. We walked close together, away from the beach. Life will feel more complete when I’m with you again, I thought, hoping my mother caught that bit of my thoughts. It’s what she needs to know right now.

Thank you, Angila!
This is slightly offtopic, but whatever: TBP.net is closed for good. Will you be continuing your story elsewhere or is that over for good, too?

It really is closed for good? I heard that rumor, but wasn't sure... I was thinking of bringing it over here, but should I start over? I mean, post House Of Wolves and then Gone Baby, Gone when that's done? I know a lot of members are from tbp.net and have already read it, but a few might not have. I don't know, Kaylee, what do you think? I'm not ready for it to be done, not at all! By the way, you're welcome!

I think you bring it over here. I might add my sequel's sequel to here and forget about LCFR. LCFR was over anyway pretty much. I'll just add the final chapter before the sequel's first.

Yeah, that should work. I'm actually thinking about this one just being the sequel to LCFR. It has basically the same plot.
