Isabella POV
" honey are you okay.."
dad knocks on the door.
" all square and good dad" I answered
" you know that you can tell me anything that's bothering you.."
" dad I am fine.. gosh I am your big girl remember.."
" yeah but big girls tend to be stupid sometimes.."
" i swear I just need a good sleep.. "
" alright honey.. just remember I am just a step away.. "
" goodnight dad.."
" goodnight honey.. I love you.."
once I heard his footsteps fainting away I let the tears rush out, I didn't want to be a sober but emotions won't cooperate do they, the more I try to get over it the more it get worse, you see I lost the love of my life, my love and my husband Marcus in line of duty. he was posted in Afghanistan a month after we got married two months later soldiers carried his coffin home.
I never image life would be this cruel given the fact i lost my mom to cancer two years ago. the universe seems like an empty meaningless square of globe.
when Marcus propose me I thought happiness have finally found it's way to my life, I thought all the troubles of my life has rewarded me a blissful life when I met Marcus.
I flip over our old photos how happy we were that we found eachother, he was a perfect man, the man who promise to hold my hands till the last of his breathe. our journey was short yet so painful to
call it a past and a forgotten memory.
I just wish I had enough time to take care of him and return a little love of what he gave to me. the future ahead looks like a dark horror movie, where do I began and how do I pretend it's too easy to move on from him.
