It was around four o’clock when Audrey showed
up at my house. I gave her a hug as tears streamed down
her cheeks.
“You’re the best friend that I’ve ever
had and I wish the best for the two of you but, are you
sure you want to do this?”
She nodded her head and handed me a little box.
“Open it.”
Audrey smiled as I opened the box.
“This is an angel that I’ve had since a long
time ago, longer then I can remember. This is one of my
most treasured items and I want you to keep it safe for
me.”
I gave her a hug and we talked for a bit until she said
she needed to get going. Little did I know that this would
be last time that I would ever see my best friend.
It was about eight thirty at night when I got a call
from Frank asking if I had seen or talked to Audrey. I
told him that I last saw her at around five plus and she
said that she was on her way to pick him up. Apparently,
she never got there. Frank figured that her parents probably
found out about their plans and wouldn’t let her
leave or talk to him. He got into his car and started
to race towards her house. To make matters worse, there
was a car accident along the way that slowed him down.
The only thing that was on his mind was to get to town
and confront Audrey’s parents to let them know that
he was serious about wanting to marry Audrey. He would
do whatever possible to give her everything that she has
ever dreamt of and be the one to make her happy for the
rest of her life. Frank got to the front of her house
and sat there wondering how to put what he wanted to say
into words. He knew that as long as he had Audrey, he
would be happy.
He finally found the courage to walk up to the house
and ring the door bell.
Audrey’s mom came and answered the door.
“Is Audrey home?” He kindly asked.
She kindly responded that she wasn’t home but he
was more then welcome to sit and wait for her if he wanted.
Hence, he did so. Thoughts kept running through his head
as he sat on the sofa.
“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 frightened to tell me no?”
Then all of a sudden, there was a knock on the door. Frank
immediately jumped up from the sofa to get the door, hoping
that it was Audrey.
Standing on the other side of the door was not Audrey
but two police officers instead.
“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 he nodded his
head. He wanted to ask for the reason they were here but
nothing came out from his mouth. The cops asked if it
is okay for them to step into the house and Frank nodded
his head again.
“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. However, 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 tear.
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 still hoped
that she would be alright.
“Now Frank, we came here tonight to let you guys
know that Audrey was in an accident. Witnesses say that
she was heading north on the freeway when she was hit
by a drunk driver riding south who had no headlights on.”
Frank started to cry and scream louder then he had ever
done before and that 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. He had just talked to her earlier and tonight
was supposed to be the first night of the rest of their
lives together not the end. Frank suddenly remembered
the accident he came across on his way to find Audrey.
Why didn’t he stop instead of rushing through? It
was her. He could have helped her or at least see her
for the last time. However, the truth is she was gone
and there was nothing that he could have done.
Audrey’s parents blamed Frank for her accident.
He paid for the whole funeral but it wasn’t enough
for her parents. They knew they have lost their daughter
but they didn’t understand that Frank had lost the
dearest thing to his heart. They blamed him because if
she hadn’t been on her way to see him then she would
still be alive.
Death is harder for some as compared to others. It took
Frank three years before he finally face up to reality
and realized that Audrey wasn’t coming back no matter
how much he wanted her to. It’s interesting how
life can suddenly come to an end. Some are lucky enough
to never go through the pain of losing a loved one. However,
for the rest of us, we can always remember that our loved
ones never really leave us. They continue to watch over
us as angels above us.
