The Bear’s Capture

I sat there and stared at my wife and two children, the love I had for them bursting from me. For so long I’d been on my own, accepting the solitude and embracing it. It had been perfect for me, what my life had been about. But then Susie had come into my life and changed everything about me. I couldn’t even envision myself without her by my side, without the two beautiful children we’d created running around the property, looking up to us for strength and support.

There was a lot to be thankful for in the world, a lot I’d taken for granted for so long. But no more. I’d never take for granted what I had in my life, how lucky I truly was.

And until the day I died, took my last breath, I’d make sure Susie, Rooney, and baby Bailey knew exactly whose corner I was in.

Theirs.

The End
