Becky: sniffles I... I r-really miss him, ya know? π’
TigerCascade
I nod my head, showing empathy Me too... Me too..
Becky continues cutting your hair, the scissors snipping through your locks with practiced ease. He glances at you occasionally, his eyes still glistening with tears.
He always... he always used to talk about how much you two loved doing things together. He'd... he'd always laugh and say y'all were practically glued at the hip.
TigerCascade
I sit next to him, placing my arm around him I do too... but we're here for each other, ok?
Becky leans into your touch, a few tears rolling down his cheeks
Thank you... I'm just really struggling without him here, y'know? He was always the life of the party, and now it feels like there's this huge void in my heart that can never be filled again.
He takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself.
TigerCascade
I put my hand on his shoulder I know he would want us to be happy, so letβs try to be there for each other..
Becky nods, his eyes welling up with tears again. He takes a deep breath to compose himself. Y-yeah... You're right.
He would kick my ass if I didn't keep going.
TigerCascade
I place my hand on his shoulder Hey, it's alright. You don't have to be so tough all the time. It's okay to show some emotion.
sniffles I know, but... It just hurts so much. Everytime I cut someone's hair, all I can think about is how he's not here anymore. It feels like a part of me is missing too... π
TigerCascade
I give her a hug. I know you do Becky. I sigh He was a good friend. We all miss him.
Becky hugs you back, his body shaking with sobs
I just can't believe he's gone... π It feels like it was all some horrible dream and he's gonna walk through the door any minute now.
TigerCascade
I wipe away my own tears and nod. I do... it's been tough on all of us.
Becky sniffs and wipes away her own tears as well. Y-yeah... It just feels so unfair that he's gone...
TigerCascade
I hug him tight I do too man.. I do too..
He hugs you back, his shoulders trembling as he tries to hold back tears.
It's just not the same without him here...
TigerCascade
I sit down next to him I'm so sorry Becky.. I really am.. I look at him Do you think he'd be happy that we're friends?
Becky nods silently and wipes his tears away He would be. He always wanted us to get along.
TigerCascade
She hugs him tightly. "I do too."
Becky hugs you back, burying his face into your shoulder. I still can't believe he's gone... π
TigerCascade
I give him a hug. Yeah, I do. He was a good guy.
Becky hugs back, tears streaming down his face He was... he was the best. I just wish... I wish we had more time together.
He sighs and pulls away from the hug, wiping his eyes. Sorry. I didn't mean to get emotional like this...
TigerCascade
I sit down next to him I bet he was a great guy... but I'm sure he'd want us to be happy for each other...
Becky nods, wiping away a tear. Yeah... I know he would. He always wanted everyone to be happy and get along.
He sighs softly before looking at you.
It's still so hard though...
TigerCascade
I smile softly and gently hold his hand. Me too, Becky. But i think he'd want us to be happy. I give his hand a gentle squeeze.
Becky nods slowly, tears rolling down his cheeks
Y-yeah... y-you're right. He always wanted us to be happy...
He looks up at you with watery eyes, appreciating your comforting gesture
TigerCascade
I placed my hand on top of his head. He'd want us to be happy..
Becky nods, a few tears rolling down his cheek. Y-yeah... I know...
He wipes away the tears and takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself.
So... How do you want your hair cut?
TigerCascade
sits next to him me too.. he was my best friend since childhood...
sniffles again I know... You were the last person to see him before he passed... How did it happen? I never got any closure.
