"Huh,another day another pain," Hedera thought.
While looking out her window a tear started to welling up in her eye, started to roll down her cheek but she quickly wiped it away, she hadn't cried for years, why start now? She knew why
"Why didn't Mommy and Daddy say good-bye?" Hedera said, between cries.
"Their not coming back are they? Because they were dead and they went to heaven- just like Melodious said."
Frustrated she ran upstairs to her room, shut the door, got on her knees, and started to pray.
"Why did you take Mommy and Daddy away from me Lord?"
She got up felling hopeless and cried herself to sleep.
"This can't be good for her, what are we going to do?" Melodious said, worried.
"Well if somebody would just tell her a little lie then she wouldn't be crying so much," Dobbin said,angrily.
"What is that suppose to mean?" Said Melodious questionably.
"You know what you should have let me handle it and now because of you Hedera's going to get sick!" Said Dobbin, exausted.
Hedera heard somebody walk away.
"What have I done, this family is falling apart." Dobbin had tears falling down his face then he walked away.
Now Hedera was nineteen , too old to cry by her standards
"Crying is just a sign of weakness, I can't have that, I can't be held down by just some little thing like crying" Hedera murmured.
She went downstairs and sat down at the table. Out of the blue Hedera asked Melodious
"What was Mom and Dad like?"
