The funeral had been held and Merlin had been buried in the garden as was the River family way.
The family gathered together to mourn their beloved Merlin.
The funeral was very well attended, Merlin had been popular.
Natalie came to be a support to Aisha, she found her out in the garden on almost the exact spot she had had that final the blazing row with Merlin.
That had been the last time Aisha had seen him and now she wished so fervently that she had spoken to him more lovingly. She knew her last look of him would haunt her for some time.
Soon after Merlin's death Aisha announced she would be moving out. Owen tried to dissuade her but she was determined. He did manage to get her to accept money for a house though on Hasani's account.
When moving day came Aisha was sad to say goodbye, but also looking forward to a new start.Her new house was just across the town and she told Martha and Owen they were always welcome to visit.
The house was going to be quiet now with just four of them, thought Owen on returning home.
