Father's sudden death from "summary" of It's Not Summer Without You by Jenny Han
When you lose someone suddenly, it's like the ground beneath you gives way. You're left standing there, trying to make sense of a world that no longer makes sense. That's what happened to Belly when her father passed away unexpectedly. It was a shock that reverberated through every part of her life, leaving her feeling adrift and alone. Belly had always been close to her father. He was her rock, her protector, her guiding light. His sudden absence left a gaping hole in her heart, one that no amount of time or distance could ever fill. She found herself constantly thinking about him, replaying memories in her mind like a broken record. The pain of his loss was a weight that she carried with her everywhere she went. It colored everything she did, casting a shadow over even the brightest moments. She struggled to find a way to move forward, to come to terms with the fact that he was gone and would never come back. In the midst of her grief, Belly found herself leaning on those around her for support. Her mother, her brother, her friends - they all tried to be there for her in their own ways. But ultimately, it was a journey that she had to make alone. She had to find a way to reconcile the reality of his absence with the memories of his presence, to find a way to honor his memory without being consumed by her loss. It was a process that took time, patience, and a willingness to confront the pain head-on. But slowly, Belly began to find a sense of peace. She started to see that while her father may be gone, he would always be a part of her - in the lessons he had taught her, the love he had given her, and the memories they had shared together. And in that realization, she found a way to carry on, to keep his spirit alive in her heart, even as she learned to live without him by her side.
