First I'd like to thank those of you for assisting me in laying my father, Diabolos Wells, to rest. Please remember this is a time for morning, not bring up the bad. Keep that to yourself at this time, I don't wish to hear it and I won't let grandma Des' bare witness to it.
Diabolos was a husband and father, he was also a son. Though he was a complicated man, he also had a heart. As a child we used to play hide and seek. With excellent hearing and a nose that could smell me a mile away, he always played along. Pretending he couldn't find me right away, but when he did the room was always filled with our laughter. I miss that more than I could ever begin to explain. Whenever I would fall, more times than I could count, he lifted me up and comforted me. When I fell and wasn't hurt he would chuckle and tell me I was just as clumsy as my mommy. I will forever carry that soothing sound with me. *Rosa paused, peering up at the ceiling to get her emotions in check*
*Rosa redirected her gaze back to the family and friends who showed up* When I was even younger, he would call me his little spider monkey. Because I would climb his masculine stature effortlessly. And when meeting new people I would immediately climb him and hide on his back, peeking out from his long hair. Growing up I thought he was invincible based on his size to my tiny frame. He was my foundation, my rock, my everything. I was blessed with a pretty awesome childhood. He made sure of it. Anything I wanted he gave it to me, within reason of course. *Throughout her speech her sniffles carried through the silence.*
*Rosa's eyes were blood shot and puffy from all the tears shed at her loss* We may not have seen eye to eye in his passing, but never once did I stop loving him. I was daddy's little apple and will always be, that won't change even if he no longer walks this realm. My only regret is we fought the last time we were face to face and telling him I love him wasn't a part of that conversation. I didn't get one last hug, one last kiss on his hairy cheek. *Rosa drew a sharp breath as her hot tears poured down her cheeks in rivers. Rosa's gaze met Abels, locking on for unspoken support.* So in closing I just want to say...... I love you daddy. *Rosa tucked her hands into her pockets, bowing her head as she sobbed heavily now. Rosa walked straight to Abel and took her place between him and her mommy.*
