The Sturniolo household was quieter than usual. Y/n had been feeling weaker lately, her small body tired from the battles it had fought. The family had spent the past few days gathered close, providing comfort and love to their youngest member.

Matt had taken to staying by Y/n’s side, reading her favorite stories and holding her hand. Today was no different. Y/n was lying on the couch, nestled in Matt's arms. Her brothers were nearby, quietly talking and sharing memories, their hearts heavy with worry but filled with love.

Y/n clung to Matt's finger, her grip weak but still present. Her breathing was soft, each breath a precious sound in the silent room. Matt stroked her hair gently, his voice soothing as he read her a story.

Suddenly, Y/n sighed deeply. Matt felt her small body relax against his, and her grip on his finger loosened. He looked down, his heart pounding with a mix of hope and dread.

"Y/n?" he whispered, his voice trembling. "Are you okay, princess?"

But Y/n didn’t respond. Her eyes fluttered closed, and her breathing stopped. Matt’s heart broke as he realized she had closed her eyes for the last time. She was gone, peacefully, clinging to her brother who had always been her protector.

"Mom, Dad," Matt called softly, tears streaming down his face. "Y/n… she’s gone."

Marylou and Jimmy rushed to the couch, their faces filled with anguish. They knelt beside Y/n, holding her small, lifeless body and weeping with grief. Nick and Chris joined them, their tears mingling with the sorrow that filled the room.

The family held each other, their hearts shattered but united in their loss. Y/n had been their light, their joy, and now she was gone, leaving behind a void that could never be filled.

Matt continued to hold Y/n, his tears falling onto her small hands. "I love you, Y/n," he whispered. "We'll always love you."

In the days that followed, the Sturniolo family grieved deeply. They leaned on each other for support, sharing stories and memories of Y/n, keeping her spirit alive in their hearts. They found comfort in knowing that she was no longer in pain, her struggles over, and that she had been surrounded by the love of her family until the very end.

Though Y/n was gone, her presence remained a constant source of strength and inspiration for her family. They honored her memory by continuing to support one another, their bond unbreakable, their love enduring.

In their hearts, Y/n would always be their precious little girl, forever cherished and never forgotten.

The days following Y/n's passing were filled with a profound and aching silence. The Sturniolo family moved through their routines with a heavy sense of loss, each moment colored by the absence of their beloved Y/n. Her room, once filled with laughter and the soft hum of her favorite toys, now stood as a quiet memorial to her short but impactful life.

Marylou and Jimmy decided to keep Y/n's room as it was, a space where they could come to feel close to her. They placed some of her favorite drawings on the walls, and her beloved stuffed animals were carefully arranged on her bed. It became a sanctuary of memories, a place where the family could go to remember Y/n and find solace.
