What do you say to someone who has just lost everything? You can't say you understand what she's going through because you'd be lying. You can try to say Sorry, but that won't bring back what they lost. You can't just ignore it, because it's tearing you apart. You can stay quiet, but won't be able to hold the tears. So what do you say? What do you do? Do you hold her? Do you read her a scripture? That's if you can hold the tears long enough for you to read. What do you do?
All you can think about is What If? What if you spent more time with him? What if you were a better friend? What if you played one last Fifa 18 game with him? Just that one last shot. One last Goal. One Last penalty miss. One last cheer. One last scream. One last laugh. What if you grabbed just one last Heineken beer with them? Just what if?
What if you where in that car with him? You know scientists say just one small change in a time line could alter the future events. Maybe you were supposed to be in that vehicle with them. Maybe everything would still be normal by now. Just maybe.
Just when everything was going right in his life. When he just got married. When he just got a baby girl. So what do you say now to the widow? What do you say to this grieving mother? What do you say to this few days old baby girl? What do you say? What can you say?
