Goodbye for now. I love you. Xoxo, Lili

Lili's POV

Today is the funeral of my baby brother.

He was amazing and is still amazing.

I wanted to give a speech but, I couldn't. I know if I did I would breakdown in front of everyone.

It's how weak I am.

I did keep myself busy with the preparations and the gang thing which Ryder helped solved.

He made a deal with them but I don't remember what or he didn't actually tell me.

I look at my packed suitcases on my bed.

I sighed and prepared myself for the strength I'm gonna need today.

Just a few more hours, Lili. You can do this.

I nod and huffed.

I really am sorry.

The event went by like a breeze. Ryder helped me through most of it but I only felt guilty.

I left before the event ended.

I was now in my room, writing a decent letter this time to everyone.

Mom, dad and Kyle

I'm sorry. I need space and time. I know I'm being selfish but I hope you guys understand. Running away is my brand. I'll come back when I'm ready. I can't heal here, it's too suffocating. It's too much. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine. Thank you for everything, I love you guys more than anything in the world. (Except for Ryder)

....

Ryder,

I can't begin to tell you how sorry and grateful I am. I'm sorry for breaking our promise but here's a promise I'll live to, one day we will live up to our dream. I love you so much that I obsess over you. You're amazing and I promise I'll be back when I'm ready. Just not now. One day. I love you.
