Chereads / Lost Generation / Chapter 17 - Chapter 16

Chapter 17 - Chapter 16

I was never going to come here. But it felt wrong not to come so here I am.

I place a white rose in front of where he lay, buried in the ground. I guess I should say something now that I'm finally here.

"Hi Jason, how are you? Sorry I've never come before now but I just couldn't bring myself to come here. Hope you understand," I say.

This is stupid; why am I talking to a dead person? But I don't care, I don't care that he's not going to be listening, there's just some things I absolutely have to tell him.

"I just wanted to say some things to you. First of all, congratulations, all the higher ups of Amphibia are behind bars after what Jackson had revealed to everybody. Amphibia will no longer be a corrupt nation. The new leaders have vowed under oath to share their resources with everyone and establish diplomatic, cooperative relationships with all other nations. I'm sure everything is not perfect yet but I'm sure we're on the right path now, all because of you, Jason," I say with pride.

Now, I have given credit where credit is due. But he also has to hear what he has done wrong. He has to hear how hurt his loved ones are; what the consequences of his decisions are.

"Your mom is not doing well at all Jason. She lost two of her favourite people all on the same day. I understand that maybe this had to be done but it is still wrong Jason. Don't worry, I will take care of your mom, after all we're all we have left," I tell him.

A single tear runs down my face. I told myself that I would not cry today. I sigh realizing that that's just asking for the impossible.

"You saved the world Jason, you really did but who's going to save me now?"

THE END
