Munchkin_2
I can kinda relate to what the old lady said. I also am 17 and I lost my dad few months ago due to heart disease and it was so painful that all I wanted was to die. I didn’t get to see him for a last time and like Aria I couldn’t speak for two days, rather I didn’t want to speak I was too shocked it was too sudden. It was because I knew that my mom needed and was holding on to support me that I started to talk again. Time has passed since then it doesn’t hurt as much as at the beginning, but every time I think about him and memories of happy times floods back it’s like an old wound opened up again. In the end I cry myself to sleep. I know the pain will never fade away and I will have to live with it.
