The Inkwellprompt - Dearly departed

(Edited)

He said that goodbye would be the hardest thing he had to said to his children.

But when it get dark, he was no more, he could not stood to his words, he stop breathing, his eyes were closed and no matter how you called out to his name, he could not hear you.

Everyone rush inside the room but he was no more. He had passed away.

They were all angry at his immediate dearly departure, he was an honourable man, a man of honour and one who look out for his friends and families and as that.

He was still a young man and could have still contribute more to himself, families and
his neighbors.

Loosing a great men of wisdom is hardly to forget and one of the most bad incident in the life of the people.

Being dearly to oneself and that of others around you is good and if being in a terrible situation they would all feel about it.

His dearly departed." Was a thing of sorrow, The family was deeply touched, the wife, the children and every family members, were not happy about it.

Some said he was suffering from cancer and some said he was a diabetic, yet what has happened has happened, now, he is at rest from this situational world.

Life itself is a journey who knows what death is?

Could it be a journey too?

When I heard about the sudden departure of John's father, I could not help it but to think of how he would manage to push through in his academic pursuit.

He called me and began to cry of which I told him, do not cry my friend, for it all happens for a reason, let pray for mercy for him.

Crying and crying and crying would not do anything to what has just happened, rather, you will end up impacting headache to yourself.

You are my friend and I want you to know that, I will always be with you, we will see through all your challenges together, and never will I leave your side.

Dear friend I know you need me now more than ever, you can come stay with me if you want to, we will share all my belongings and lots together.

Please be comforted for better days are coming.

No one has the power over death, it comes when we least expect. Promises to never leave doesn't prove to be effective, yet, a day comes when they go leaving love ones in bereave. I like the end part where one promises to be there for people who needs comfort

Dealing with death is always difficult, but especially when it is sudden and unexpected.

When I read this line, I wasn't sure who it is referring to:

When I heard about the sudden departure of his father, I could not help it but to think of how he would manage to push through in his academic pursuit.

I inferred that the narrator had a friend who was the son of the many who had passed away. This could be something you mentioned prior to this. What is the boy's name? When you add more details to your stories, it will bring them to life, and help the reader to become more interested and involved.

As an administrator in The Ink Well, I often provide constructive feedback on stories to help our writers develop their skills. I also encourage writers to read the other stories in the community and learn from them. (And we expect everyone who publishes in The Ink Well to read and comment on other writers' work.)

Additionally, we have some excellent resources for developing writers in our catalog of fiction writing tips. Good luck with your writing!
