But that same passion steadies me. It strengthens my resolve. I have not forgotten. And, like Jeremy said, I can never be expected to forget.
There are so many questions left in my mind. With Jeremy, and with us, there can never be a happy ending. I’m aware of that. All I can do is enjoy the good moments, and savor the previous few I stumble upon unexpectedly with him.
If I don’t, I will go crazy. I don’t know where our future will lead. I don’t know what sort of twists and turns remain in our path. I don’t know a thing about Rose, or Hugh, or their connection. I don’t know what’s happened to my mother, or what will happen to Paul. Can I convince Jeremy to let him out of the facility? Or is his mind too far gone for freedom?
Those are the concerns brewing somewhere in the depths of my mind. I don’t let them touch me now. I bring the last piece of toast to my mouth, and look across the table to meet Jeremy’s eyes. I am treated to the sight of a beautiful, unrestrained, and loving smile. And all I feel is…
Peace.
The End.
