It's been almost a year since the death of Jan, The guilt still reeks within me even though it wasn't really my fault. She was my one and only, my fantastic Mr fox! She was soul mate and I let her go...I will never forgive myself for what I've done, but life goes on and I will too. So let us begin our tale of loss and love at a place where it all began a ship...
The loud wind blew aggressively through my pointy ears and I could taste the salty sea water. As the boat left the docks, I felt like I was missing something as we set off or someone. I lugged my large overly packed suitcase inside, I swung open the door to find Hannah and Tadhg waiting for me inside. I dropped my suitcase on the floor and Hannah gave me a hug, "I'm proud of you Louise, you know that?" Hannah said in a calming voice. A tear dripped down my face and Tadhg gently wiped it away cracking a smile. I suddenly found myself in their arms while I balled my eyes out, "Don't cry, We love you Lou! It's time for the next stage of our lives...you can't hold on forever" Tadhg said softly. "I know, I know..." I said keeping back my tears. They held me in their arms for what felt like a thousand years, savoring every moment. But nothing lasts forever.
