After the tragic death of Louise, their parents and Sam received the heartfelt letters they had written. The message to Sam was filled with encouragement, echoing the pep talk he had given her the day before.

Lovely Sam,
Don't ever let anyone change you. Stay true to yourself, the lovely, inspiring guy who likes other boys. There is nothing wrong with you; you are perfect just the way you are.

A wise man once told me, We are no monsters. We're different, but it's not an illness, it's an upgrade. It's not a sin, no matter what they say. You and I are not like others, but still perfect. Back then, it seemed too perfect to be true, but now I see that he was right.

The boy who likes boys, my best friend, was right. Never forget to be yourself, as you were made to be. You can't go to hell for accepting who you are; you only go to hell when you deny it.

Please, don't forget me,
Louise

Sam's hands trembled as he read her letter, tears blurring the ink. Each word felt like a bittersweet embrace, filling him with both sorrow and strength. Their unwavering belief in him, even in their final moments, gave him the courage to live authentically. Sam clutched the letter to his chest, whispering a promise to Louise that he would honor the memories by staying true to himself.

Their parents received a letter too, filled with gratitude and honesty. Even though Louise couldn't be themselves around them, they expressed their appreciation for their love and care.

Dear Mom and Dad,
Thank you for the perfect life you tried to give me, the food, and the nice bed where I could sleep. But let's be honest, a perfect life wasn't meant for me.

When I'm honest with you, Mom and Dad, I'm not the perfect pink princess who wears beautiful dresses. I never liked wearing them. I didn't like the long hair either. I was always jealous of the boys; I wanted to be more like them.

Forgive me, but I'm not the daughter you dreamed of. Don't be sad. I won't go to hell for who I am; the universe made me this way, and I'm thankful for that. I would go to hell for the choice I made in the end.

Never forget, whatever they tell you, your only daughter wasn't crazy or a monster. She was an angel, born in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Love you!
Louise

Their parents were shattered. They had always tried to give Louise the best life possible, unaware of the inner struggles. Reading Their letter, they felt a profound mixture of sorrow, guilt, and pride.

Despite the public recognition, the personal grief of Louise's parents was immeasurable. They mourned deeply, their hearts heavy with the loss of their beloved child. They clung to each other and to the memory of Louise, finding solace in the knowledge that their sacrifice had sparked a necessary change.
