Hello there. As we all know, Queen Elizabeth II, one of the greatest rulers and one of the longest reigning monarch in history has passed away at the age of 96. She survived many obstacles such as WW2, tragedies, scandals, family feuds and others yet she endured it while inspired the next generation with her charisma, compassion & kindness to the people not just England but to the world.

So I made a short tribute from a certain bear paying a respects to the Queen.
——————————————————
Outside of Buckingham Palace, thousand of people put their bouquet of flowers, letters & pictures outside the gate of the aforementioned palace.

Then, a certain bear with blue jacket and a red hat appears holding a bouquet of flowers & a jar of marmalade. He wasn't alone as he was accompanied by a family of 4 and an old woman. This was a Peruvian bear named Paddington, named after the Paddington street. The family he was accompanied were the Brown Family, who adopted him and the old woman was their family maid, Mrs. Bird.

They were here to pay respects to Queen Elizabeth II. It happened unexpected when they were doing a breakfast when they saw a news that Queen Elizabeth II has tragically passed away. This shocked the family but Paddington was most affected. He remembered he was invited by the Queen herself inside the Buckingham Palace for a short but memorable tea ceremony between the two during the celebration of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee for her long reign is now the longest reigning monarch after Queen Victoria.

Now here they are, standing outside the gate of the palace surrounded by other people and thousands of flowers to say goodbye to their beloved Queen.

Paddington puts the flowers and a jar of marmalade in-front of the gate as he and the Brown family standing each other in silence. After a short silence, Paddington broke it.

Paddington: *sad tone* I can't believe it she is gone. I barely knew her when she invited me for a tea ceremony with her.
Henry Brown: I know. Many people always talked about her not just her rule but to her compassion to them.
Sally Brown: She survived many ordeals such as WW2, family feuds within the royal family, scandals from the Prime Ministers and others yet she endured it all.
Mrs. Bird: I was just a little girl when I saw her on TV, the day she was crowned a Queen. I will never forget that moment. It was one of most beautiful moments of my life.
Judy Brown: I watched "The Crown" series about her and now, she is one of my favorite people.
Jonathan Brown: Yeah. I made an essay about her on the class and I got A+.
Paddington: I send a letter to my aunt Lucy(another Peruvian bear) about her passing and she too pay respects to her. *Sigh and smile as he remembered* I was spending with her when the camera was off during behind the scenes, she was wonderful, person I know and she even like my marmalade I made.

Henry pat the bear's shoulder as the latter smiled before he pulls out a picture from his pocket.

It was a picture of him and Queen Elizabeth II in a tea ceremony taken during the Queen's Platinum Jubilee along with signature by the Queen herself. There are 3 pictures as the other one was in the picture frame on his room and the 3rd was sent to his aunt Lucy.

Paddington smile as he puts the picture on top of the boquet of flowers. He look to the palace one last time before he removed his red hat as he hold it onto his chest and give a solemn bow.

Paddington: *smile* Farewell, your Majesty.

Paddington put back his red hat on his head as he & the Brown family left and walk away as other people continue to paid tribute.
