I made him a promise that day, on the day of his death.
I promised him I would take care of you, and I've failed him.
It's not like we ever got along while you both were alive, but in his dead it ended.
Our childish bickering, which now seems so stupid.
I wish we had gotten along better, for you.
Eureka isn't the same without you, and perhaps if things had worked out differently you would still be alive.
Perhaps he would be too, who knows.
Henry said that we shouldn't try to mess with the past, and he seemed very sure.
I'm not sure why.
Today, I stand at your grave which is next to his, and I'm here for one reason only.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry I broke my promise, I pay for it each and every day.
