Two years after her husband Jeremy’s sudden death, Kelly is startled awake by a voice—his voice—coming from their daughter Sophia’s room. Shaken, she investigates, terrified and confused. Sophia sleeps peacefully, but the voice echoes again: “I love you forever.”
The sound is coming from a teddy bear.
Kelly realizes the voice is Jeremy’s. A memory surfaces—Sophia’s birthday, a gift from her mother-in-law, Gloria. When confronted, Gloria tearfully confesses: she embedded a clip from Jeremy’s wedding vows into the toy so Sophia could one day know her father’s voice.
Kelly is overwhelmed, caught between grief and gratitude. That night, she sits by Sophia’s crib, holding the bear and remembering the man she lost. She presses it again. “I love you forever.”
Sophia stirs and whispers, “Love Dada.”
In that quiet moment, something shifts. For the first time in years, Kelly feels Jeremy’s presence—not as a memory, but as a part of Sophia’s world.
Not just gone. Not forgotten.
Forever.
