There is an awkward moment of silence.

"Say something you idiot," my brother says.

What do I say?

"Tell her you know that she's ignoring you."

"I know you're ignoring me Teagan," I blurt out.

She doesn't say anything. Great now she thinks I'm a stalker.

"Shut up. Just speak your heart."

Uhm

"You know it's hard for me too right," I tell her.

"Y-you look a lot like him," She whispers.

What do I say? Of course, I look like him.

"Tell her you need her back."

But I'm fine

"You promised!"

I soft sigh

"I need you back in my life T. You are the only string that's attached to him. I can't lose you too," I tell her honestly.

She doesn't say anything. I awkwardly start playing with my fingers.

"Tell her you avoided her too!"

I didn't

"Oh like you ever tried to talk to her."

I did!

"On text."

Fine

"I've been avoiding you too. I'm not gonna lie. Maybe not as much as you did but I did walk away every time I saw you around the neighbourhood because I didn't know what to say-"

"Or where to start," she cuts in.

"But Zayden said we grow from grief. So I want to try I make things at least half normal how they used to be. We all need you Teagan," I tell her.

Happy?

"Yes!"

"Okay," she finally says making me smile.

"But I need time."

"Sure."

I lay on the bed beside Hope. Teagan lies beside her.

"I miss him too you know," I tell her. "Terribly."

"Let's talk about something else please," she says.

I frown.

"Ask her if she's been swimming lately?"
