The conclusion of chapter 3.
She raced out of the hospital and down toward the park. She stopped at the first bench she came across and sat down on it. She hid her face in her hands and began to sob hard.
She didn't even notice when someone softly asked, "Are you all right?"
Amy was quick to shake her head as she continued to sob. "My brother died."
"I'm sorry for your loss." The voice responded.
Amy looked up and was surprised to see that it was Jacen's sister, Kayleigh. "I really liked Steve." She said. "Jay called me after you left. He thought you might need a female friend to talk to."
"Then you know Steve didn't approve of me dating your brother?" Amy asked.
"Yeah, well the difference is I do." She said. "You two have been good for each other." Kayleigh sat down next to Amy and sighed. "Steve felt you were taking his friend away from him which is why he was upset. I overheard him and Jay arguing."
"I would have never let that happen." Amy said and sniffled as she started to calm down some.
"I know." She said. "I was asked to give you this by my brother. Its from Steve. He wrote it before he died."
Amy sighed as she took the paper. This wasn't in an envelope. She sighed as she opened it.
Amy,
I'm sorry for upsetting you. I was angry. I thought you were stealing my friend away. You know how much I love you. I would never try and take away your chance for love. I do want you to be happy.
I know I am not going to get any better so I want you to know I am okay with you two being together. Just protect your heart and don't let him force you to do anything you aren't ready for.
I love you so much, sis. Please never forget that. I will see you up in heaven when its your time to join Mom and I.
Stay safe!
- Steve
Amy sighed as she folded the paper, as a few stray tears fell down her cheeks. She smiled to herself. "Steve gave us his blessing to be together."
Kayleigh grinned at her friend and nodded. "I thought he would." She said.
Both girls got up from the bench and walked back toward the hospital. It was time to go talk to the others....especially Jacen.
