Dear Olivia

Dear Olivia..

"ava?" I slowly opened her door knocking to see if she was awake

"omg delilah" she whispered getting up, she was curled up on her bed, tear stained cheeks and a red nose

"I was so worried about you" she ran over hugging me, we didn't let go of eachother for a good amount of time.

"Is Olivia.. gone?" I quietly asked, pulling away
hoping that maybe she survived

ava just looked at me, tears started to run and she slowly nodded her head

it felt like someone stabbed my heart, twisting the knife
I can't imagine how her parents and ruby are feeling

~~~~~

Two days later, Olivia's funeral

My heart ached hearing that ruby was still in hospital, he'll be so hurt that he couldn't come to this.
her funeral ceremony was beautiful, if Olivia were here she would've loved it. that's how funerals are meant to be. I made sure to get videos to show ruby

everyone that ever loved Olivia, which was a lot of people, came and everyone sat outside on chairs in the sun

there was a flower archway, almost like a wedding, but it was over her casket

the whole time we listened to people saying speeches about her, my eyes stayed on the casket, imagining that she would open it and be fine

I snapped out of my gaze feeling a tug on my shirt,
ava was asking if i wanted to say a speech for olivia

of course I did.

I stood up walking over to her casket and the microphone right next to it, I slid my hand over the shiny casket when I walked past.

my eyes widened at the amount of people staring at me

but I knew exactly what to say, so I just started to speak

"Olivia was such a beautiful woman, and it makes my heart ache knowing that she only got a few hours to be a woman. I only met Olivia a few weeks ago, and every single day with her was one that I'll remember forever.
losing someone you care so deeply for is a type of pain I never knew existed until right now, but I do know Olivia wouldn't want any one of us to be angry, or pained from her death. she would want us to continue to laugh, and smile, and every time we see that beautiful flower in the bunch, to think of her
I love you Olivia and I'll do everything I can to keep that piece of you that got torn from my heart" I cried a little bit towards the end, feeling her empty presence beside me.
everyone else that wanted to had already done their speeches, so I was the last one
music started to play as I walked back down to ava

Dear Olivia.
I miss you.

4 days after the funeral

Delilah pov

I finally decided to get a job, I need money to buy a car so I don't have to taxi with ava or oscar
but I had no idea where to start

after the funeral I've been fumbling everything, and been way more forgetful of everything so obviously I need to do something to distract me

ava told me that mario got a new job, which meant that maybe there's a spot at the liquor store, I started there

"Buenos dias" the old lady sitting behind the counter greeted me

"Buenos dias, I was wondering if your hiring?" I asked walking up to her
