Every day was the same.

Wake up.

Go to school.

Go home.

Cry.

Sleep sometimes.

Repeat.

Life was so boring.

Black and White.

That is how I viewed life.

It used to be so full of color.

The Twins made it that way.

I don't think I've smiled since they left.

I haven't had Ethan saying, Bitch.

Or Grayson being an absolute goof to laugh at.

I'm just lonely.

The most important people in my life... are gone.

Today was no different.

I ignored my Mom as usual and went upstairs.

I locked my door and threw my bag on the floor.

I saw some boxes on my bed.

I opened the first one.

It was a box of Ethan's Stuff.

His away jersey.

My favorite everything of his.

Hoodie.

T-shirt.

Pants.

Hat.

Beanie.

I opened up this book.

It was a photo album.

Photos of Ethan.

Photos of me.

Photos of Ethan and I together.

We all did everything together.

It was us three against the world.

I went into the other box.

It was similar to Ethan's box

But it was Grayson's things.

I went to my art drawer and took out two frames.

I flattened out their Jerseys and put them in a frame each.

I put two nails into my wall.

It was the wall above my window seat.

I remember the first time we met.

I was sat there and they climbed to the window when I first moved.

I hung up the two jerseys.

Number 8 was Ethan.

Number 47 was Grayson.

I went downstairs I didn't realize I had tear dripping down until my Mom came up to me and wiped them away with the pad of her thumb.

I grabbed a Granola Bar and went back to my room.

I flicked through the photo albums.

So many good memories came back.

* 10:47 PM *

My phone beeps.

It is a message from Lisa.

Hey Honey,

Just thought I would let you know it is the twins funeral next weekend. I would love it if you could give a Eulogy. If not that's okay I understand. I'm always here to talk whenever you need to. The twins are looking over you and they are so proud.

I reply to her.

Thanks, Lisa and I will give a Eulogy. I want to make them even more proud. Goodnight.

After sending that message I fell asleep.
