The Sky is Blue

The day was a little cool, but still beautiful. The glorious sunny weather did not cheer him up, however. Steve Paxton felt a mounting unease as he walked towards Hannah's grave. This will be his first visit since her funeral. He used to visit her every day, now he had no time for her for two weeks. He felt guilty of neglect.

He felt guilty also about something else. All too often his mind had flashed to someone other than Hannah. The girl lived too short a life to leave something permanent and to live in the memory of many people, so who will remember her except her parents and him? As for her parents, her own father abandoned her after the accident, forgot about her and started a new family. Will her younger siblings ever find out about Hannah's existence? Will he ever come to lay flowers on her grave? So if not him and not her mother, who will remember this beautiful, cheerful girl who passed away so tragically and so sadly?
