Saying Goodbye

I don't know if I can go through with this, Beverly thought, as she and her Dad waited in the parlor for Pastor Bree to get them. I am not ready to say goodbye.Last week, Beverly and her mother had been involved in a car crash with a drunk driver. Even though the drunk driver had survived, Beverly's Mom had not been so lucky. Tears filling her eyes, Beverly, like many, many times over this past week, wished that she could have taken her Mom's place. After all, it was unbearable for Beverly living with out her Mom.Moments later, Beverly felt her Dad's arms wrap around her."It's okay, sweetheart." Mr. Black whispered. "I'm here."Immediately, Bree turned around, wrapped her arms around her father, and started to sob.
