Dearest Aiden,

If you are reading this letter then I must have gone far away from you and our beloved daughter.
I wrote this letter on the day we got to know about the complications in the pregnancy.

Aiden honey, I can't even begin to imagine how much it will be hurting you now that I am gone. But believe me, it pains me equally to be without you. But I am glad you have our daughter.

Our daughter. She is the miracle of our lives isn't she? But I know, now that I am away, you won't be able to see her as that miracle. That is why I have written you this letter.

You know what got me fascinated with physics, thermodynamics. More specifically, the first law of thermodynamics. I must have been in eleventh grade when I had first studied it. It states that 'energy in an isolated system cannot be created nor destroyed'. It is such a beautiful sentence. I am sure you don't understand how I am finding it beautiful but it is.

See if we consider the world to be an isolated system, then the energy here cannot be created nor can it be destroyed. Which means it can only be transferred, maybe from one form to another or as in our case, from one person to another.

That time, I used to think if energy cannot be created or destroyed and is transferred into another form, then someday when I will die, the energy inside me will be transferred into another form. And by this, I will give new life to an organism. The energy that drove me, will help that organism live and that made me less afraid of death. I used to always wonder to which organism I will pass it on.

Now I know baby. That organism was a small human baby, our daughter. In her lies my energy, in her lies not just a part of me, but everything that I had. My energy was not destroyed but got transferred in her. In our daughter.

I know you will not like her at first, you will feel I was gone because of her. You must be feeling like that right now, but believe me when I say, I live inside her. And I know you can't hate me. So don't hate her. Whatever happened wasn't her fault, it wasn't anyone's. So don't blame her. Just look at her and you will find me there.

I know I am not with you physically, but I am still with you both. For lord's sake did you really think I would have left you alone to raise our child. You can barely take care of yourself, let alone another person. (I can hear you laughing.) But I know you will take care of her and cherish every moment with her, like you did with me.

I have left a couple of letters for my baby girl which you will find in the same drawer where this one was kept.

I am with you both, always.

Love her. Love me.

Miss me. I miss you.

And remember the first law of thermodynamics.

I will always love you.

Your wife,
Hannah.

Okay, this was a little emotional chapter for me, not just because I was writing a letter under Hannah's name, but because we both share the same belief. Even I always thought of first law of thermodynamics in this sense. It is beautiful to think that someday because of my, another organism will live. I will say organism because I really don't know into who my energy will get transferred in. I know I must have sound crazy when you all must have read it, but everyone believes in something and I in this.
This thought was the sole reason I wanted to write this story. I don't know how many of you will agree with me, I don't even know if you all would have understood the entire thing. But it is a thought that drives me and I hope one day, I meet someone who can agree with me on this.

Thank you for reading. Please vote, comment and share.

Until then, cheerio.
