"Aunty Gale!" He shouts and rushes over to me. I pick him up and hold him close. A tear runs down my check. He looks at me. "Why are you sad Aunty Gale?"
"Um .. I need to go and talk to the man inside the office. Will you stay outside and be a good boy?" He nods eagerly. I walk into the office.
"Ah, you must be Miss Armstrong." I nod, "so down to business. I know that you must be in shock, and that it's a lot to take in. I assume that you probably have no idea what to do, which why I am here to help." I nod. Shock preventing me from doing or thinking anything.

"Aren't they going to fetch me Aunty Gale?" He asks. I shake my head."No honey. They have gone to live with God. They can't leave heaven. So that means that you have to stay with me. They can't come back, but they love you very much, and that love will always be in your heart forever. They will always be alive in your heart and your mind." I hope he understands."Oh." His face drops. "So will I ever see mommy and daddy again?" I shake my head. A tear drops down his cheek, and I pull him close, as sobs rack both our bodies, and I hold him tightly as we cry together. I have him. That's what matters."I'm sorry baby. I'm so sorry." He says, and sobs into my shirt, making it all wet. I don't care though. I hold him close, even though I meant to be comforting him."So does that mean that now, you are my mommy?" He asks, through his tear face and I suck in a breath.

She understands that I will get a car, which I will now have to drive Theo around in.I let her inside the house."So, as you well know, I don't have any furniture for Theo's room, but I have already made arrangements to get it today.

“Hello, my darling.” She says softly. I try to smile, but it doesn’t help.I walk up to my parents and my brother, and we join in one big hug, and as if it was a mutual cry, we sob together, and sink to the floor slowly. We stay like that for a few minutes until Theo interrupts.“Guess what Granny and Papa!” He says excitedly, “I get to stay with Aunty Gale now!”My parents look at me heartbroken and at the statement, my mother wails in agony. I try to give Theo a smile and pick him up.“Alright. Let’s get you home young man. It’s really late.” I hug my parents goodbye.“Drive safely Gale.” They state, looking at me with tears in their eyes. I just nod. I drive Theo home and lead him upstairs."Here is your room Theo." I show him his room, I take him by the mad and let h

It’s Thursday morning. The funeral is tomorrow. Theo nods. I take his hand. We head downstairs.“Would you like some a peanut butter and jelly toasted sandwich?” He nods eagerly.I make it for him.

He loves that movie.I quickly get change into my own clothes, shorts and a tee shirt, along with flip flops of my own. I make sure that Theo has brushed his hair and his teeth.

The funeral service was beautiful. It was sad at the same time. The attributes to my sister and her husband were beautiful. I gave a speech, and brought Theo up with me. It's Monday today. That means I have to go to work. I drive Theo to his kindergarten. I walk out with him, hand in hand. A lady comes to greet me. "Hello. You must me Miss Armstrong. Theo's godmother." I nod and smile. "Hey Theo, why don't you go play?" She says and he laughs, joining his little friends. "So," She smiles and rubs my back. "I know this journey is going to be long and hard. I'm here to help you. You haven't done this before. I have. Three times. My name is Kyla. I'm here to help you through this. Alright?" I nod slowly. "Thank you. That means a lot." I smile sadly. "Sure." She rubs my back.

I head over and bury myself in work. My watch buzzes. It's 11:45. I quickly drive to pick up Theo.He runs over to me. "Hey mommy!" He smiles and runs up to me and grips me in a hug."I made this for you mommy." He gives me a painted picture. It's of a little stick figure, and a bigger stick figure."Is this you and me?" I ask, he nods eagerly. "I love you, baby." I pick him up and buckle him into his chair."Alright. I bought you some coloring in books and crayons. We are going to mommy's work. You can sit at my desk, and you can watch Tom and Jerry. Is that alright baby?"He nods eagerly and I hand him his books. We arrive at the office and I lead him hand in hand to my office. I brought in an extra chair for Theo. However, I find him turning around in my chair happily, colouring in with an orange crayon. I laugh."What are you coloring in baby?" I ask, holding a file, and filing pieces into it.

I stare at him open mouthed. "Like seriously?" He raises an eyebrow. "Yeah." He says, and looks at me pointedly, as if to say, "Well, duh." "Well then no." I say. His mouth drops ope . He laughs, and then looks at me. He stops laughing. "Wait ... You just declined my offer." He says, as of it sounds foreign to him. Like he doesn't quite understand. "Yeah." I smile. Nice one Gale. "Wait ... You're serious?" He looks taken aback, and the signature smirk which lines his features is replaced by a look of complete surprise. It is quite amusing, actually. He can't quite believe it can He? "Yup." I smile, innocently. "Well, it's getting super late, and I have my kid, so I better get going." I smile, and Aidan still looks at me puzzled, as if he can't quite place his fing
