The Grief

Adrian

“Dad, can I get my room painted pink and have bows painted on the walls? Pretty please,” Amy says as we drive home.

“You can have anything that you want darling,” I say.

I finally got to take her home. She is so excited to finally go home, but I can tell she is sad about losing her mum. Meghan’s funeral is tomorrow. I know it is going to be hard for Amy tomorrow. I told Amy that the funeral was tomorrow when I got her from the hospital. The service is being held by Meghan’s mum.

I called Meghan’s mum and informed her that Amy and I would be gracing the event. She kept on apologizing for everything that Meghan had done to us. I had asked her to keep the truth from Amy as I had not informed her of what exactly had happened. But I am glad to have her home with me finally.

We passed by McDonalds and got some lunch before heading home. I have a board meeting in the afternoon so I drop her home first. I had particularly asked the housekeepers to move her to the room next to mine.
