"Daddy! Daddy!" You yelled, as you got off the bus from school. Your dad, Ivan was waiting at the door for you with a sad smile. You ran up to him and hugged him tight. He hugged back just as tight. He led both of you back into the house. Both of you walked over to the kitchen table and you sat your backpack on it. You turned around, only to be engulfed into a warm embrace by your dad. You hugged him back knowing what today was. 

"Hello, Sunflower." Your dad said sadly. You both pulled back and tried to smile but both of you failed. 

"We can skip homework for today, sound good, Da?" Your dad asks. You only nod your head. Ivan takes you over to the couch and you both sit down facing each other. Ivan's lip was slightly quivering, as he gave you his best close eyed childish smile. You felt a single tear fall down your face. Ivan took notice and pulled you into his lap. You buried your face into his chest and started crying hard. You missed your papa dearly, and so did your dad. You pulled back and looked at him thinking about what your teachers were talking about earlier today. One was talking about how they found their soulmate. You had asked them what that was, an they couldn't tell you, since they themselves, did not know. You sat with your back against your dad's chest and heard him softly crying. You were just so curious, that you had to ask. You looked up at your dad and asked the question, that would change not only your outlook on it, but life itself as well.

"Daddy... What's a soul mate?" You asked innocently. Ivan started to wipe his tears, though he felt a new wave of sadness overcome him. Images of Matthew flooded his mind. He looked up to the ceiling and looked deep in thought before answering.

"It's uh... Well, it's like a best friend, but more. It's the one person in the world that knows you better than anyone else. It's someone who makes you a better person." Ivan explained holding back tears. Matthew had always been there for him. He never left him alone like everyone else. Ivan had changed once Matthew came into his life. He became a better person. People had even started to warm up to him. He continued.

"Actually, they don't make you a better person, you do that yourself because they inspire you. A soul mate is someone who you carry with you forever. It's the one person who knew you and accepted you and believed in you before anyone else did or when no one else would."  Ivan started remembering how no matter what, Matthew always loved him and never judged him, even when he deserved it. Matthew made him want to be better. He was there when no one else was, because they were too afraid of him. And then They adopted you. Neither could have been any happier than in that moment, when they brought you home. You both were crying at this point.

"And no matter what happens, you'll always love them. Nothing can ever change that." Ivan said hugging you close. Memories of Matthew laying in the hospital bed, the night of you birthday came to both of your minds. He was getting your present, when he was robbed, shot, and left to die on the sidewalk. The call came in the middle of the party. All the countries were there just for you. Ivan answered the phone and dropped everything, grabbed you, told everyone it was an emergency, and headed to the hospital. Everyone worrying as well, followed. Matthew was in the hospital bed. He didn't have long. The doctors did what they could, but the damage was too much. Everyone made their visit and cried and said goodbye. Then Ivan and you. Ivan cried and held Matthew the best he could. You were crying and cuddling up to him on the hospital bed. He died holding you, after telling you both that he loved you and that he was sorry. It was hard after that. Neither of you smiled like you used to. It was just you and Ivan. 

You looked at Ivan with tears in your eyes and saw Ivan was sobbing now.

"Daddy? Was papa your soul mate?" You asked through tears. 

"Da Sunflower, he was." Ivan said holding you close.

"And I loved him so much, and I know you did too. Just don't ever think he didn't love us either. He loved you more than anything." Ivan said.

"He loved you too daddy. I saw how you both looked at each other." Ivan didn't reply to this. Just kept holding you.

"I miss him so much.." Ivan finally whispered. You looked up and smiled sadly at him.

"Don't worry daddy. He's with the angels now. He's waiting for us. You're still soulmates. Just far away." You said trying to comfort him. Ivan just nodded and held you close. Both of you still crying.  Eventually you both quieted down and laid on the couch. Sleep was about to take over you, as you kept thinking of your papa. Even after three years, it doesn't get any easier to let him go.
