Grace was in her bedroom, just laying there, on her bed, staring up at the ceiling like a broken soul cuz that's what she was

"Gracie?" She heard, being called through her house

"Upstairs," she called back, recognizing the voice and choice of nickname to be John and heavy footsteps on the stairs followed after and she rolled onto her back when he came through the bedroom door and sighed

"Hunter and Steph miss you at work," he said, sitting on the edge

Grace didn't reply. It was true though. She had taken some time off from work, she couldn't stand to see Randy at all right now, she would break down.

"How is he?" She asked and John sighed

"Angry and depressed, he doesn't talk to anyone besides me," John replied and Grace sighed and sat up next to John

"I miss him, so much," she told him and sighed

John pursed his lips as he watched Grace twirl the ring on her left hand, it wasn't the engagement ring Randy gave her, but it was the diamond ring he had gifted her for her 25th birthday. It was a simple diamond ring, but Grace loved it because it was one of the first gifts Randy had gotten her

"You know what it feels like to wake up one morning and feel like you have nothing to live for anymore?" She asked, eyes getting wet already as she sat up next to John

"What it feels like to know you fucked up the best thing in your life?" She continued

"How it feels to feel completely alone in a room full of people because the one person you loved with everything in you fucking hates you?" She asked, tears filling her eyes

"He doesn't hate you Gracie," John told her but she shook her head

"John, you don't know how I feel. I feel like I can't do anything without him. I used to hate people that said someone was their world but now I know, that when someone is your world, their your familiarity, your norm, what you need to learn and to strive, a home, a loving environment, filled with new things that makes you want to be a better person," Grace said and John looked at her

"Something that teaches you to love and how to be loved, what teaches you how to accept people's imperfections and to not think of them as flaws, but as assets, Randy was my world John," she told him and he looked down, feeling his own tears in his eyes
