The Last GoodBye

Amelia had always been close to her father. They would spend hours fishing on the lake, talking about everything from the happy moments to the difficult ones. But when Amelia received the news that her father had passed away, she was devastated.

It was a warm summer evening when the news arrived. Amelia was sitting on her porch, lost in her thoughts, when the phone rang. It was her mother. "Amelia, your father passed away," she said, her voice breaking with emotion. Amelia couldn't believe it. He had been healthy, strong, and full of life. It was a shock to everyone.

Amelia decided to go to her father's house, to be close to him one last time. She drove through the winding roads, past the green fields and rolling hills, until she reached her father's lake house. It was a beautiful wooden cabin with a porch overlooking the lake.

As she walked up to the porch, she saw something moving on the water. She walked down to the dock and saw a small boat heading towards her. It was her father's boat.

Amelia watched in amazement as the boat pulled up to the dock. Her father stepped out, looking as healthy and strong as ever. He smiled at her and hugged her tightly. Amelia couldn't believe it. Was she dreaming?

Her father explained that he had been given a second chance. He had been in a coma for weeks, and when he woke up, he felt like a new man. He wanted to spend his remaining days doing what he loved most: fishing on the lake.

Amelia spent the next few days with her father, fishing and reminiscing about old times. They talked about everything, from the happy moments to the difficult ones. It was as if they were making up for lost time.

They fished for hours, casting their lines and waiting patiently for a bite. The sun beat down on them, and the water glistened in the sunlight. They talked about Amelia's childhood, her father's work as a carpenter, and the time they had spent together on the lake.

As the days went by, Amelia saw a new side to her father. He was more relaxed, more at peace with himself. He had always been a hard worker, always pushing himself to do more, but now he was content just to be on the lake, fishing with his daughter.

On the last day, as the sun was setting, Amelia's father told her it was time for him to go. He had been given a second chance, but he knew his time was up. He hugged her tightly and told her he loved her. Amelia couldn't hold back her tears. She didn't want to say goodbye.

As her father walked towards the boat, Amelia saw a figure in the distance. It was her grandfather, who had passed away many years ago. He walked towards her father and hugged him tightly. Amelia watched in awe as they both disappeared into the distance.

Amelia knew that her father had found peace. He had been given a second chance, and he had made the most of it. She felt grateful for the time they had spent together and knew that he would always be with her, in spirit.

And so, as the sun set on the lake, Amelia said her last goodbye to her father, knowing that he was at peace and that she would always cherish the memories they had shared. She sat on the porch, looking out at the lake her father loved so much, and remembered all the times they had spent together. The sun slowly sank below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the lake. Amelia knew that her father was still with her, in the memories they had
