    Author Notes:

    “I looked around, taking the small space into my system, trying to memorize every last detail”; Helena finds the courage to conquer the walk-in.

    “My beloved Helena,” Bette wrote, “I’m sure you remember this infamous jacket. Are you surprised? While you were at work today, I was rummaging through our closet and found this lying in a sad dusty corner. I had to get it washed, my beloved, this jacket holds too many memories for us. I still remember the day we were at the movies; I knew you were freezing, but you refused to say anything until I offered you my jacket. I remember your surprise when we found out later that we wore the same size of clothing! And baby, there is definitely no way that you are fatter than me. It’s just not possible. Now, as you hold onto our jacket, I must ask you to carry out a most difficult task. By now, I would have been gone about six months. My love, it’s time…”  

    “No,” I whispered, fearing what was coming, “No, Bette, you can’t ask me to do that.”  

    “…it’s time to pack up my things, my clothes and let that part of me go. Baby, you don’t need to keep my things to keep me alive, because I will forever be alive in our memories together. Keep the jacket, but everything else, you don’t need it. Make some space for new things that will come into your life. I love you forever, right up to the moon and back.”  

    My wiped away my tears, turning to look at our shared closet which was still filled with Bette’s things. From the day she passed, I couldn’t bring myself to let that part of her go; it brought me a strange comfort to still see her clothes hanging there.  

    I took in a deep breath, walking towards the walk-in.  

    How could I possibly bring myself to pack her up into yet another box?  

    Then, I remembered my promise to her; no questions asked.  

    “For you, my love,” I said, trying to control my tears and this overwhelming wave of sadness, “I’ll do as you ask."

     

    ***

     

    It was my day off from work and I had asked Mummy to take Becky for the day. I knew that I needed the time to conquer the impossible task at hand. After having a cup of coffee and spending the morning in serene silence, I finally took a breath and with my fingers clutching a large cardboard box, I went into our walk-in.

    1. My Beautiful Dragonfly… I am so happy you are back… I have missed you so very much… not only your words but your presence… you are magical and serene and all those things… as for this story… I must admit I continue to read your stories on a regular basis I had just finished reading this this morning at work when I came home to find you here with more… you are magical… you can take my heart and hold it tight and make me feel safe with your words… even in pain you make me feel safe… I love you my beautiful Cuzzie… and I’m glad you are back… you never missed a beat, JC

    2. Don’t matter how hard I tried, it is still hard to come to Bette death just like this (tears all overmy face). It’s hurt so much. It’s like I can feel Helena’s pain. Becky will grow up woithout know how fantastic was her other mother. Its hard, heart breaking. welcome back eunichick. Great to have you back. PPVS

    3. Hi, dear sweet niece Eunichick! *waving* Wow! This is certainly a fantastic surprise! Yaaayyyy!!! *doing happy dance* We really missed this story, sweetie. It was hard to read, because we could feel the pain that Helena was experiencing, while trying to follow Bette’s instructions to get rid of her things and clothing. However, it was a necessary step for Helena, so she might be able to move on. In the end, she got the silent message that Bette wanted her to understand: Becky was more important than some pieces of clothes. Thanks for this wonderful update, dearest niece. PPS Lucero & Marsha (The Salsa Aunties)

    5. Baby, I’m so HAPPPEEE that not only am I back here but I get to read the surprise update as well. IMU lots while I was in Europe. Just dropped all my bags and I’m on my way to see you =). Kisses

    6. Hey euni glad to see you’re back among us.What Hel’s had to do is one of the most difficult things you have to do after losing a loved one. Cleaning up their stuff means saying good bye to them for ever. I still think Bette couldn’t have forced this on Hel’s, you have to be ready for it and do it at your own pace and clearly Hel’s was not ready to say good bye to those things yet. PPS thanks

    8. Prima now this is a great surprise and what a heartache it was for Helena to have to once again open her heart and see the things that belonged to Bette and have to give them away because it was best for her in order to start living again without Bette. Glad that tina was there to help her and seeing a sign at the center was perfect! Great chapter and please try to keep up,,LOL only kidding Prima!

    10. Ah, this story always chokes me up… I’m glad Bette’s sending these notes to Helena. I think it’s helping her let go, but not forget. Great chapter, glad to see you back. Thanks

    12. Welcome back! This is still a hard story to read but one that has it place to be told. I enjoyed it when you started it, and I’m sure I’ll enjoy it when you finish. It’s good to have you back!!

    13. i feel like my heart was just ripped out…in a good way though….i understand what it feels like to lose someone you care about but you don’t want to get rid of their things….its the last thing you have of them physically, even though u still have them mentally. Post soon.

    14. So I have spent the better half of two days reading all of your stories which I loved! Most especially this one. I was so moved by the depth of love and emotion conveyed in this story I simply could not stop reading. While my heart broke for Helena’s loss my heart soared because of the love they share. Thank you for this story it’s in its own way allowed me to believe in the power of love again!
