A True Goodbye

William Pov

I knew one day she would come to me. I knew one day she would see the vision. I just had to wait. It was hard and long. I was heartbroken but I lived a long life already. I made mistakes but I had loved and lost. She deserved to have that too. I knew she would find her way to me. I didn't care how long it took. I had to wait. I just had to.

It was a cold rainy day. I walked outside the church. Nothing was the same anymore. I knew Aria and James weren't here anymore. I wished I had the chance to say goodbye but nothing was ever a true goodbye. I looked up at the sky and felt the rain hit my face.

"Hi," she said. Her voice was like a dream. It was a melody I had missed. She smiled at me as if she couldn't believe I was standing in front of her but she was happy nonetheless.
