He'd noticed it a few days ago. Gretel's name was gone from the list again. It hadn't really hit him at first. He just kept going on with his days. Like everything was okay. But keeping it inside had never worked. He tried to meditate. Tried releasing his grief into the Force. The meditating didn't help, though. Gretel was his sister, his twin, and her being gone again was like a piece of his heart missing. He sat on the front steps of the apartment building, holding a leather bracelet in his hand. He worked his thumb over the braided material and closed his eyes. He'd made it for Gretel when they were six and had never taken it off. He didn't feel the tears rolling down his cheeks. He just wanted the aching in his heart to stop. |
