It was a cold autumn day...The dark and gloomy clouds took over the whole sky, letting out a slow blow of wind as a soft whisper. It smelled like apple and cinnamon... Like I could feel my sister all around me. Her silky ginger hair flying around while she was running towards me to hug me. Her death was a tragedy...It cut away part of my life and took it with her. I don't feel complete now... I feel alone and weak...

I sat on Jorry's bed. Her toys were still over it, where she left them 3 days ago. I took out my black veiled cap and my black gloves. My hands were shaking. Taking one of her dolls into my hands, I felt a hot tear rolling down my cheek. She was gone. Nobody was going to bring her back... Suddenly, I felt hands over my back. I knew who it was. I knew his smell. I felt how he placed his hand on my shoulder, slowly kissing my cheek. I hugged the doll and began to sob.

"You promised Jim"-I managed to stutter trough sobs. He didn't say anything... He just wrapped his arms around me. I placed my tired head on his chest.

"I'm sorry"-he finally said. I glanced at him, my eyes full of tears, red and tired from all of that crying. His wounded face was sad and exhausted. He was also weak, holding his thin body like a paper doll.

"It was late...I was really late"-he continued as we both departed. I put some of the hair behind my ear standing in the middle of the room like a ghost. He turned around looking trough the window at our garden full of golden autumn leafs. His sad eyes were scanning the people who were greeting my parents and leaving with their expensive cars. I was looking at him. I was looking for the answers that he didn't want to tell...he knew something, he knew more than he told me. I was anxious to hear him speak, speak the whole truth and tell me how my sister died.

"Jim, for the last time, do you have anything else? Do you know anything else?"

He glanced at me finally, he opened his mouth to say something but he didn't. Instead of that he stood up, walked towards me and took something out of his pocket.

"The last thing I managed to save from her ash"-his raspy voice said. It was Jorry's diamond necklace. I took it in my hands and briefly ran my fingers trough it. New wave of tears got me. Jim took my face into his hands.

"I did everything, Piper, I fought, I murdered people..."

I covered his wounded face with both of my hands. He closed his eyes. His left eye was swollen and his mouth was viciously ripped of.

"I want you to take something"

He took out an envelope.

"What is this?"

"Read it after i leave..."-he said it in a whisper walking backwards away from me.

"Where are you going?"-I asked. He sighed silently and placed a blunt kiss on my cheek, then he went out leaving me alone.

"Jim!"

He didn't answer. I took the envelope into my hands ripping it off. It was a letter addressed from him to me.

Dearest Piper

I'm leaving...I don't know where, but it's better if  I stay away from you for a longer time. It's true, I didn't tell you everything about your sister's death, and I won't...Because if you know that now, I'm afraid that you will hate me. You will find out alone, without me or anyone telling you. Don't let anyone fool you, fight and beware. Know that no matter what I will always love you as a friend, or perhaps more. You will hear lot of things about me it's yours if you're going to believe, more of them will be true, less of them not. We will meet again when it's time. After this, don't come after me because I will be already gone by the time you'll stop with reading.

Until the next meeting, I love you, Jim Moriarty....

I glanced towards the door where he left. Where is he going? Why is he leaving?

"JIM!"-I yelled going trough the stairs.

"He left, Piper"-Irene's voice appeared.
