//------------------------------// // Ch 21 // Story: When a Door Closes a New One Opens // by coolpony01 //------------------------------// Today is the day I met my parents. It is a sorrowful day for today. I am not with my parents to celebrate. They are weeping right now no doubt. As am I. I can not help but cry for I loved them and they loved me and it is sad and quite unfair that we were separated. I sometimes wish I never ended up in this universe but that would mean I never would have met my family or Spike. And so I don’t regret what happened but still regret the pain and sorrow that have been clearly brought upon that of my parents.  Spike noticed that I was upset. “Moma you okay.” He asked in genuine concern. I turned to my son. “Oh Spike I’m alright I’m just missing some people.” I said. “You wanna talk.” Spike offered to try to cheer me up. “It’s alright Spike it’s not something for you to worry about it’s grown up stuff.” I said. “Okay Moma but I can still give you this.” Spike said as he gave me a hug I couldn’t help but smile. It was so… heartfelt. “Thank you Spike, you know that helped. Come on, let's make some breakfast.” I said. I then went to prepare ourselves some breakfast eggs and pancakes Spike and I love these. I truly did love the addition of pancakes to my breakfast once I got in this universe. I then turned to see Spike smiling at me. I might have lost much but I’ve gained much too and that helped to ease my sorrows and fill me with joy at the same time at least somewhat.
