Lou felt left out... He got home from work with empty stomach and get to bed ONLY to dream his stomach is full with his wife's famous meatball pasta... His wife wasn't even home yet... She's with Mindy, her so-called soul sister.. whatever...
Mindy and Mandy is now at the bar... Mandy have special secrets to tell her best friend.. She is pregnant with Lou's baby and she decided to give Lou's the surprise on their romantic dinner tomorrow... Mindy is so excited that she almost fall off her chair... She couldn't be happier...
*************************************************************
I am sitting on the couch after the funeral looking at the casserole sent by my friends at work... My body is numb... I keep looking at the photo near the TV which taken by Mandy...
It's our first kiss under the mistletoe at my grandmother's birthday party... It's the day Lou proposed Mandy and the day my parents announced that they will get divorce and a week later my sister, Natasha gave birth to a healthy little girl, Coleen...
I still can't believe Mindy will kill herself... Two weeks before the wedding where we already made reservations at the diner where we first met... I remembered how nervous I was looking at her.. She was with her friends... That big green eyes... Those little pink lips... She just smiled and that time even I am pretty sure it wasn't for me, it felt like all the world's sorrow have been lifted and replaced with sunshine and rainbow... I wipe my tears on my cheek...
"Chris....?"
I look around... I could've sworn I heard Mindy's calling me...
"Chris....?"
This time I feel something icy cold on my left cheek... But it feels calm... It feels like Mindy.. Only Mindy can kiss me and make me feel calm
"Mindy... I miss you" I cry... I wish Mindy is here with me... I don't care if she's back as the scariest looking ghost... I just want her
Last thing I remembered i fell asleep on the couch with Mindy's memories playing in my head
*************************************************************
I cry and cry on Chris' chest hoping the pain go away... He hug me tight... Mandy only have me... Now nobody have her.. She just drop dead and leave us (especially ME) behind...
They lower the coffin into the ground... I am still crying in Chris' arms... then there's strong wind...
I open my eyes seeing Chris wiping his tear and my parents hugging each other... Mandy is wrapping her arm around mine
"Time to say goodbye Mindy..:"
"But.. I'm not dead... You're dead... I got wedding to plan"
"It's over" Mandy smile and pull me and we leave the cemetery to a small rusty steel door "We have a new home now.."
