100 Reasons Why I Shouldn't Be Alive

Precursor || Galen

Dear Galen,

You do not exist.

At least, not yet anyway.

It's far too soon to tell when our paths might cross, but I know one thing for certain.

And that's how much I love you.

Right now; at this very second, you could be coming from your mother's womb, crying your little heart out while immersed in her warm embrace. Wrapped in a soft cocoon of blankets and soaking in her love and appreciation for the beautiful baby she just gave birth to.

Then one day she's going to want what's best for you...and sadly that won't be with her.

And when that day comes, I will be right there to catch you before you fall into the wrong hands.

I will give you everything she would have wanted you to have. I will make sure you have only the best I can provide along with my pure undivided attention because you are my son and although I should have died by now, I know I'm still alive because you were destined to be mine. 

I have waited for you this long and I'll wait another twenty years if I have to.

Because although we haven't met I know you're out there and one day I will find you.

And when I do,

My life will be complete.

Your Father,

R.K.R
