It's been a week since Catherine died. Since Catherine's funeral. They did a ceremony for her, where you can see her in an open casket and you can say your last goodbyes. I didn't go, I couldn't bare to see her in a casket, knowing that she isn't going to wake up. Then it was her actual funeral, where they buried her. I did go, but I watched from a distance. I didn't want to go up and say our memories we spent together, those stay within me. A knock from downstairs interrupted my thoughts. I groaned. I checked from my window, it was Nick, Catherine's step brother. I slowly rose from my bed and headed downstairs. I opened the door, Nick was holding a box, it was a pretty big box. "H-Hey Mike. Umm we're cleaning out Catherine's room. Well I am, my mom is too sad to go in her room. Anyways, I found this box with your name on it and I decided to bring it to you. So here you go." He handed me the box and I took it. "Thanks Nick, for stopping by." Nick half-smiled, "Yeah no problem." I shut the door and headed back up to my room. I examined the box. It was pretty heavy and Mike was written at the top in big letters. I slowly opened it, there was a letter, I unfolded it.
Hey Mike, by the time you'll be reading this, I'll be gone. And by gone, I mean dead. Anyways, remember when we went to Arizona? I smiled at that memory. Well that was the time where I realized that I wanted to travel the whole world with you, but things didn't go as planned. But don't blame yourself. Also, don't blame yourself for my death. Nothing was your fault, I did this to myself. Anyways, my dad use to send me money ever since he left and I collected it. I never wasted it. I wanted to use that money for I can travel the world, but since I can't do that anymore, I want you to travel the world for me, Mike. There's $20,000 in that box, that should be enough, and my camera. I want you to capture every moment. Anyways this is the end, I love you Mike. I always did. Don't forget about me.
Love and Kisses, Catherine.
Tears of joy slowly fell from my cheek to the letter. I folded the letter and grabbed the box. Her camera was placed in the box as well as the money. I smiled. I'll travel the world for you, I promise. I closed the box and put it on top of my closet. Vic barged in my room. "Hey Mike, I came up with a new song, but I can't come up with a title for it, wanna help me?" I nodded. "Sure, let me hear the song." Vic smiled. "Cool." He sat down on the chair next to my bed and I sat down on my bed. He position his guitar on his lap and cleared his throat,
Are you up there? Just give me a signal, I'm reaching you now. Cause I remember the sound of your voice, but I don't remember what we talked about. It doesn't matter that's a waste of time. So take off your rings and lipstick for me. I swear that I can hear you in the wind, you're singing to me...

I'm always listening. I'm always listening. I swear, I swear, I swear, oh... Vic finished playing the last notes of the song. Vic cleared his throat again, "So? Any ideas."
I smiled, "Gold Medal Ribbon."
