The end of an era

My mum got her divorce letter through today. Its official; my parents are divorced. They had been together since they were 15 and to me that sounds like forever. I can't imagine what my mum's feeling right now so i gave her a hug and tried to be their for her. She cried but if i'm honest i don't understand why. She knew it was coming. Her & my dad have started talking again so i don't see whats so upsetting about it. I think perhaps when i'm older i'll understand what she was feeling today.
