A Note To Say Goodbye

last update Last Updated: 2021-06-17 00:33:11

The time is going by faster than I have been counting.

It is crawling to two weeks at a rather alarming pace and yet, there is no improvement in Tyler at all. I beg Doctor Cane every day just to give it one more chance. We have been stealing chances and I fear the day that they are going to run out.

I am not ready to give up on Tyler. I know that he is in there, he just needs to find his way back home. Each night, as silly as it may seem, I burn a candle hoping that it will help him find the light and step back into our world.

Yes, the rambling thoughts of a woman that has almost no strength in her left. Yet, I need to be strong for our baby. I cannot give up on living and I cannot give up on hope.

But giving up is a question that we have been talking about a lot lately.

The thing is, that day when I found Tyler on the floor, I found his gun only but inches away from his body. The blood was so much that I could not see if he was should or mere

    I cannot believe this is happening to me. Detective Fletcher is arresting me for what he believes is Tyler’s murder. Since when does a simple accident become murder. Yes, I can still not believe that he took his own life either. Nothing makes sense at the moment, and I know they want to lock me in a cell until it does. What Detective Fletcher fails to understand is that it is not going to happen. First of all, I am not leaving my husband alone while he is fighting for his life, and second, I am pregnant for. But even the most, is that I did not do it. I know the note does point in a different direction, but not even that direction is making sense. Why would Tyler want to take his own life when only, but before the accident, he was so excited that he was going to become a father. I understood that the demons in his head would not go away that easily, but to take your own life so suddenly, that is not Tyler. But, I think I need to take a moment and step back to

    I think I can safely say that my secret is now out. Brooke has just burst through the interrogation room’s door and called for the interview to stop. I do not know who was more surprised by the move, Detective Fletcher or me. So if it is said that he is beyond furious, then that shall be a slight understatement. But, the best part is yet to come, “Are you charging her with anything, or can I take her home.” The next few seconds are the most agonizing that I shall ever experience in my life before. So it is in anticipation that I wait for Detective Fletcher to answer, “Yes, I am charging her with attempting murder.” I watch as Brooke’s face grows in shock while I can only but gasp.

I am being stuck in a cell for something that I did not do, and no, I cannot see him either. Why do I feel so helpless? When did I become so

  • Chasing Broken Dreams   Not Who You Seem To Be

    I have a very frustrated Brooke sitting across from me, demanding answers. Well, she will only get so much from Detective Fletcher, and then there will be the amount that I am going to allow her to get. I do wish that this is not something I had to discuss when Tyler is not here to hear what happened, but I am not discussing this until I have seen Tyler. So with her wanting to nearly murder me, we make our way back over to the hospital. This could have been avoided if they just did not mind their own place and let me look after my husband. But trust some want-to-be rooky detective that is looking for his next big promotion to start something that was never a problem. Yes, I want to know why and what really happened to Tyler, but I did not do anything to my husband. I would never hurt Tyler. But now I need to explain to his sister every same thing… But something that needs to be explained to me is why they are not allowing me to go into his room. As we

    Brooke has just heard the words that she has waited for to be spoken. To say that she is not slightly shocked would be a lie. So as she eagerly awaits for me to finish my story, I only but shake my head at her, “I want time alone with Tyler.” Much to her protest she finally gives in and leaves the room. Tyler looks so peaceful. He is going to be so devastated when he has to find out. He needs to understand that I had to keep it from him, I had to protect him. Even more, now that I know that Mark is out. I am writing this letter as a token of my love to him, as a keepsake for him to treasure, and as a reminder of my commitment to us and to our life together. "To my dear husband, I want you to know that I love you, ALL OF YOU, and I always will. I am committed to our marriage until death does us part. At times, in moments of deep frustration, I may have questioned otherwise, but that was my immature way of seeking love from you when I sh

  • Chasing Broken Dreams   Save Us From Our Fate

    Tyler had his eyes opened for what is only but a few seconds. With only but one word and breath left in him, he could only utter my name. He has now fallen back asleep and has not moved since. I don’t know how much he had heard of what was said, it breaks my heart that our marriage is falling apart over secrets that I should have never kept from him from the start. So I am left here with nothing but my thoughts. With that, I sit back into the chair and let her close her eyes to rest. The edginess inside me is killing me, so I take a nearby piece of paper and scribble down my thoughts. "I want to thank you for bringing so many pleasant, beautiful memories and emotions. For giving me so much affection, warmth, and care. For the lovely nights. For the minutes when I am near you. For your smile. For the kind words. For all the good that is between us. I realize how dear you are to me and that you are the person with whom I am ready to go through life with

  • Chasing Broken Dreams   Words To Take Away From Life

    There has not been any movement from Tyler again. The Doctor is writing it off as a freak moment that his brain showed activity. I am wanting to believe is that I shocked him so bad that he does not want to come back to reality. Is this what our lives are going to come to? Apart from my battle with trying to get Tyler to come back home, I still have Brooke waiting around for answers. Detective Fletcher has also snuck his head in regularly keeping an eye on Tyler’s condition. My life is a mess. So I guess that life goes on. I would love to believe that I am doing fine, but my heart has now, in fact, seized to exist. I cannot bear the pain anymore. It has been suffocated to such a brink that it is only but lying like a dormant vessel in my body, one I can by all honesty say, I do not wish to revive. What has revived itself with a newfound urgency is the rate that the bleeding irises find themselves watering up with tears every day. I am trying t

    After what has been the longest month of my life, Tyler has opened his eyes and is speaking. There is no word to describe how I feel that he has finally seen that light and followed it home. But apart from being back here with us talking, I can see there is a confused look in his eyes. There is still something that is haunting him in those eyes. I need to be patient with him to see what he can remember, I need to see if he can remember what happened that got him here. The thought of having to deal with a ghost of a man all over again does set the fear into my horror. So yet, I wait patiently for him to speak while Doctor is giving him a quick check-up. “Jenna, what happened? Why am I in hospital.?” I look at Doctor Cane, waiting for him to tell me that it is okay to Tyler what has happened. “Tyler, you were in an accident. Can you not remember?” He touches the bandages on his head and that confusion grows even more, “What type of accident?” I

Yet, the only thing that remains in my mind that is a constant is the fear that I will not see beyond the eighth hour. Everything pays the price…even love. We are paying the price for the bad things in our past, for the bad people we have left behind.

    As the ambulance gets to the hospital, we find the Doctor is already waiting for us on the steps. But the moment that Tyler sees the wheelchair, he changes his mind. "I will not go in there if you put me in that thing. I can walk!" "Tyler, you are still very weak; please, you won't be able to walk so far." "No, Jenna, I say no wheelchair." I nod to the Doctor that very reluctantly pushes it away. He comes and helps them to help him out of the ambulance. The instant he sees how pale his face is looking, he is immediately concerned. "Let's get you to a bed; I need to do more tests." "No tests!" If I thought that coming to the hospital mean that they can do tests, it seems that I have completely misunderstood the concept of why we are here. "Tyler, please, remember how we said they must see what is wrong?" "Yes?" "Now, please, they need to do tests to see what has changed from the last time we were here."

At least we know what we are fighting for. And even though I feel somewhat awful, the dizziness at times seems to be rather unbearing. But I feel as if I have had a breath of fresh air; I know that I can get through this, no matter how bad it gets.But first, I know of a little woman that needs a good spanking, for she has just slapped me on my ass. Before she even knows what I am doing, I throw her over my shoulder and start to carry her out of the kitchen to the bedroom.

    Tyler really struggled last night, the headaches and dizziness were beyond what he could bear. I sat with him in my arms the whole night while he was crying in complete agony. Every single second was pure torture for me, once again I cannot help him. Just the way that his body trembled in my arms was enough to render me helpless. I cannot protect the man I love, what type of woman does that make me.After much protest this morning, I brought him out to the creek. It is early morning and the sun is just starting to tickle the horizon. I lead him towards some shaded trees right in the middle of almost nowhere. The smell of sweet flowers that are coming into bloom fills the air. Nearby on a tree branch sits a bird humming a beautiful song welcoming the new day. Everything else almost seems quiet; it's peaceful, it's perfect.I thought I would do something nice for him and make him a picnic out in the fresh cool air. He has been stuck inside for most of the day since we go

Can we please go home? I am really not feeling well.""Don’t you think that we need to see a Doctor? We are here now. It is the second time that you have fainted in two days now.""No, please, can we not just go home?"With that, I hook my arm around his waist and pull his frail body off the chair. His entire body is shaking, and he has gone paler than all fifty shades of white. My heart sinks, and I feel completely helpless; it looks as if he is in total agony, and there is a terrified look in his eyes.And terrified we make our way to the car, not for one minute do I let go. I lay him down on the passenger seat and cover him with my jacket. His body is still trembling, but he tries his best to hide it. God, it breaks my heart.

We are going to be late for our appointment.” “He can wait for me.” “Baby, the doctor, can’t wait for you; that is why you make something called an appointment.” Well, here comes a pillow flying at me. "Baby, I am going to drag you out of bed in that godawful pajamas if you don't get up now."

    It is with great concern that I sit with Tyler’s head resting on my lap. He seemed to have fainted, and we are patiently for him to wake. Brooke believes that he must be completely exhausted, for he has not slept but a wink since I have been gone.So as I watch him flutter open his eyes, there is a great relief that flows over my body, “Baby, are you okay?”He mumbles softly under his breath as he grabs at his head, “What happened?”“You fainted. Are you okay?”He goes silent for a few seconds, I can see a fear creeps in his eyes, but he only waves me off, “I am just exhausted. Come, let’s go home.”The drive home is fairly quiet; not much is said about what happened. Nobody dares to mention how reckless I was. I know the conversation shall come up; if I am going to be prepared, well, we will have to wait and see that.I might have said this before, and I shall say it once again. Li

Not truly, but there is nothing so satisfying as the dumbfounded expression on Brendan's face. Her face has gone from a slight pink to completely pale.But before he can ask me once more what it is that I mean by my words, I watch as a rather intimidating man, who is only but for a few inches away, presses his gun into Brendan’s side. His voice hitch, and his entire body stiffen. In total surprise, he looks at me."Brendan, you do need to be careful what you wish for. You of all know that you should not tempt fate.
