Short True Love Stories
We'll Remember You Part 3
She kindly responded that she wasn’t home but that he
was more then welcome to sit and wait for her if he wanted so
he did. Thoughts kept running through his head.
“Did I scare her?”
“Where could she be at this hour?”
“What if she didn’t want to run away with me but
was too frighten to tell me no?”
and then all of a sudden there was a knock on the door.
Frank immediately jumped up from the sofa where he was sitting
to get the door hoping that it was Audrey.
Standing on the other side of the door was not Audrey but instead
two police officers.
“Hi.” One of the officers said.
“I’m Officer Steven Mitchell and this is my partner
Officer Mike Jones. Is this the residency of Audrey Thao?”
Frank stood speechless and confused but nodded his head yes.
He wanted to ask why they were there but nothing would come
out. The cops asked if it was okay that they stepped in the
house and again Frank nodded his head yes.
“Are you her brother?”
“No. I’m Frank. She’s my girlfriend.”
he stated.
“Is she alright? I’ve been waiting for her to come
home.”
The Officers wanted to know if her parents were home.
“Yes, they are but they’re sleeping.”
he responded.
“What’s wrong? Where is she? Did she do something
wrong? Is she hurt?”
He knew that something was wrong and his eyes started to water.
The cops looked at each other and then glanced at Frank.
“Would you take a sit Frank.”
He knew it was going to be bad news but he was still hoping
that she could be alright.
“Now Frank, we came here tonight to let you guys know
that Audrey was in an accident. She was riding on the freeway
and witnesses say that she was headed north on the freeway when
she was hit by a drink driver riding south who had no headlights
on.”
Frank started to cry and scream louder then he had ever before
that it woke Audrey’s parents up. The cops explained what
happened and Frank left the house with tears in his eyes. He
could not believe what had happened. It was just earlier that
he had talked to her and tonight they was suppose to be the
first night of the rest of their lives together not the end.
Thoughts ran across Frank’s mind non-stop, then it brought
him back to the accident he came across way to find Audrey.
Flash backs non stop. Why didn’t he stop instead of rushing.
It was her. Maybe if he was there he could of helped her but
the truth was she was gone and there was nothing that he could
of done.
Audrey’s parents blamed Frank for her accident. He paid
for the whole funeral but yet that wasn’t enough for her
parents. For all they knew, they lost their daughter but didn’t
understand that Frank had lost the dearest thing to his heart
which was their daughter too. They blamed him because if she
hadn’t been on her way to see him then she’d still
be alive.
Death is harder for some then others. It took Frank three years
before he finally
faced reality and realized that Audrey wasn’t coming back
no matter how much he wanted her to before he could go and date
again. It’s interesting how life can all of a sudden come
to an end. Some are lucky enough to never go through it, for
the rest of us, we’ll always remember. There’s an
angel above us. Someone whom we loved and someone who loved
us.
