A month later, everything had picked up for us. Kai had set up a bakery and for me I was just happy to see him smile. It finally felt like all the weight that his mum had put on his shoulders had finally been lifted. We could live our lives with nothing to worry about and I truly thought kai was finally happy . He had been struggling so much emotionally over the past 4 years as his dad was brutally murdered. I remember seeing him looking so sick. Pale skin, so pale he looked like a ghost. I remember him breaking down every time 'stop crying your heart out' played,it was played at his dad's funeral that he had to skip because it was too much. Seeing him like that hurt so much... It felt like my feelings had trapped me in a cell because the person I loved the most in the world was standing on the edge and was  ready to let go. I never want to return back to those months when he really lost it and couldn't do it anymore.I am so proud of him though. He's still here and he's happy again just like when we would go fishing with his dad or when he spent Christmas with his family when we were 12. I miss it, I really do but I'm glad I have my kai back to normal.
