I asked George ( my husband ) to get the cake.

"Mummy every year on the tenth of October we always cut a cake , and then you talk to a random star for the whole day , why is this?", my 4 year old daughter , Polly asked me.

" On this day my um sister Polly died , and to pay respect to her we commemorate her death anniversary ", I said.
My heart was still throbbing and I my eyes started swelling up .

We cut the cake . Dad and mum came over too . They know how much I feel for Polly .
" Mummy I want to meet your sister , Polly ", Polly said .

" She's gone ", I sobbed.
Polly ran outside and stared up at a star.
" Mummy , why does that star have braces ? " , Polly asked .
"I think its my sister Polly she also had braces , go say hi to her ", I smiled.
Polly waved at the Polly the star.
So you may have figured no matter what happened Polly ( the not alive one ) was always going to be in my heart no matter how much time passed.
