EPILOGUE

A hundred days have made me older

Since the last time that I saw your pretty face

A thousand lies have made me colder

And I don’t think I can look at this the same

But all the miles that separate

They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face

Don’t tell anyone, but I still see Heather all the time. I talk to her all the time too. She still gives me lots and lots of advice. People think the Heather who killed Calvin was my alter-ego, you know, like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde but I know it was her, because she told me so herself.

I’m here without you baby

But you're still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

And I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby

But you're still with me in my dreams

And tonight

It’s only you and me

Miss River continued to counsel me even after I left the Girl’s Home five years later. They never charged me for the murder, because the lawyer hired for me pleaded for my life, citing health reasons. To them, I was a mentally unsound kid. All that time in the Girl’s Home, Heather had been with me. Those were my darkest moments; my saddest times and she had been there for me like she has always been.

The miles just keep rolling

As the people leave their way to say hello

I've heard this life is overrated

But I hope that it gets better as we go

I’m here without you baby

But you're still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

And I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby

You're still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl

It’s only you and me

I think about Calvin too, sometimes, but not too much. I know nothing I do or say and how much I regret what I’ve done will never bring him back. Because believe me, I never meant to kill him. Till now, I still have no idea what came over me. Maybe it was the fact that my suspicions of what he had done to me were confirmed when he admitted to doing them.

Everything I know

And anywhere I go

It gets hard but it won’t take away my love

And when the last one falls

When it’s all said and done

It gets hard but it won’t take away my love

Well, actually Miss River has stopped counseling me but the truth is because I lied to her and told her Heather’s left for good and I’m now Holly. Only Holly Myran.

I miss them, miss them both. And I think about her all the time.

I’m here without you baby

But you're still on my lonely mind

I think about you baby

And I dream about you all the time

I’m here without you baby

But you're still with me in my dreams

And tonight girl

It’s only you and me

Holly Myran, and no one else.
