It Was Meant To Be:Part Fifteen
hope ya like it....enjoy.. Time flew by on the flight and i woke up just before we landed and turned around to find everybody was asleep. When i turned i moved Michael and he woke up. Michael: (rubbing his eyes) morning..how are you feeling? Me: better.. He kisses me on the lips and we sit up. Then the pilot comes on the speaker telling us to put on our seatbelts because we are coming in for landing. This wakes everybody up and we all put our belts on. I look out the window and see green everywhere. This brought back memories of our last visit which made me feel bad again. I swore to myself last time that the only time i would come back here is if it was to get married, but now it was to go to my own motherâ??s funeral. The plane landed and we all got off. There to my surprise was my father, my brothers and my sister. Michael must of rang them off the plane while i was asleep. I ran to everybody and hugged them. At this stage we were all in tears. I turned and introduced them to the Jacksons. They all shook hands and shared their sympathy. Michael hugged my brothers and my sister and my father too which i was shocked by. We all went back to the house to organise funeral arrangements. I walk out to the garden were my father is standing staring into space and i stand beside him. Me: you never told me how it happened? Dad: (looks down) she just didnâ??t wake up..(his eyes fill up) Me: oh...(a tear rolls down my cheek) He puts his arm round me. Dad: come on..lets go inside.. We walk inside and a few of my close family members are here now to and they are all sharing memories of my mother and chatting with the Jacksons. We sit down and start arranging the funeral. We decide that we are going to have a private open coffin ceremony here in our house first and then go to the church and cemetery. We pick the local church and the cemetery where my grandparents and most of our deceased family are buried. Then it came down to picking the music. We had four songs picked out. We chose somewhere over a rainbow, arms of an angel by Sarah McLaughlan and i asked Michael and his brothers to sing ill be there. The last song i chose because it was one of my mothers favourites and i knew she would of wanted it. It was smile and i asked Michael to sing it and of course he said yes. We also picked out readings and prayers but i knew i couldnâ??t do one because i would be too upset to read but Katherine said she would like to read one and so did my two brothers and father. Finally we picked the tomb stone and it read: â??Linda Kelly loving wife, devoted mother and grandmotherâ? the date she died and her date of birth. At the end of the tomb stone it simply read: â??Loved too much to be forgottenâ?. We finally finished up everything that needed to be done. The funeral was in three days and the wake was in two days. It was a typical catholic ceremony. We all decided that we would just sit in with the two families and have a quiet drink or two and for them to get to know each other. It helped the mood because we all started laughing and joking again. From the corner of my eye i could see Michael talking with my father as i sat with my sister and all the women from both our families. I turned my head to try and read their lips because it was too loud to hear what they were saying. I couldnâ??t get what they were saying but it looked like a serious conversation. Michael: yeah she was upset but when you called the other day she was over the moon (smiling) Dad: (smiling) well i just really wanted to get to know you and start over..its just a pitty it has to be like this (looking down) Michael: i know sir.. Dad: but hey were going to be spending a lot of time together over the next week or two so maybe this is kind of good for us.. Michael: hopefully it wont end like last time Dad: well i highly doubt that (smiling getting up and walking to the kitchen) Im still staring over and i see Michael just smiling to himself. He sees me staring and gets up and walks over to me, sits down and puts his arm around me. Michael: so what you ladies talking about? Katherine: womens business Michael (laughing) Me: what were you talking bout with my dad? Michael: mens business sarah (he gets up smiling) Michael: would you like another drink? Me: yes please (he takes my glass, i smile and i kiss him on the lips as he goes to the kitchen) I cant help but watch him leave and when i turn back all the girls are smiling at me. My sister: aw your so in love (everyone nods and agrees) My cousin: so when will i be hearing wedding bells? (not knowing what happened) I just look down and my sister explains to her what happened. My cousin: oh im sorry i didnâ??t know.. Me: its ok..i think dad is going to give him another chance anyway.. Katherine: hopefully (smiling) i wouldnâ??t mind another daughter..after all my house is full of boys.. As she says that i think about my mother. i just smile at Katherine but really i want my own mother to still be here. The night passes fast and we all go to bed. I get washed and throw on one of Michaels shirts and hop into bed. Michael gets washed and climbs in wearing boxers. I lie there on my side thinking about the week i have ahead of me. Michael snuggles up to my back and puts his arm around me. Michael: you ok? Me: yeah just thinking.. Michael: do you wanna talk? Me: no its ok..im tired lets get some sleep we have a hard few days to come.. Michael: ok baby..(he turns me and kisses me) good night.. Me: night (i turn back and fall asleep) I wake up at 8:30 to the phone ringing..... To be continued......
