Brendan arrived at the park as he said he would and took a look around. It didn't look like Mari had made it yet. He walked slowly through the park with his hands in his pockets, his eyes scanning for her, as he went to take a seat on one of the swings. He rocked back and forth as he tried to think about what he might say to make Mari feel better but in truth he didn't know. There was never anything anyone could say on a day like this to anyone who'd lost someone dear to them to make them feel better. The most he could do was be there for his friend, which was what he was there for now.
It was hard for him to decide what was worse, growing up without a father or growing up with one only to witness his death with your own eyes. Sure, Mari's father had been out of her life for a long time, 9 year she said, but sometimes that could only seem like just a moment ago. So Brendan kept rocking on the swing, waiting for Mari whenever she decided to turn up.
