Today December 3, 2007 marks the two year anniversary of my sister Cass's death.
After the prognosis that Cass needed a bone marrow transplant, she lived over three months before her body gave out.
I looked down at the headstone that read 'Cassidey McNeil gone too soon loved by all'. And I laid my three pink roses on her grave.
Its been two years and while I will never forget my sister, this year is easier than last year.
Last year it was too fresh and I wasn't ready. I fell apart at the seems.
Now, I'm half way through my first year of college at California University.
When I turned eighteen, JC, Gabe, and I headed to California for college.
And this is the first time I have been back since I left.
In ways its still the same. My family still lives in the same house, the same schools are here, some of the same stores and neighborhoods and doctor offices are still here.
But my hometown has changed too, but thats not the point.
Now, I don't see Cass everywhere I look. I still remember the places she loved to go though.
With one last look at her grave, I turned and walked back to my car.
And I drove to my old house.
When I walked through the front door, my mom greeted me with a hug and a welcome home.
Since everything that happened, my mom has tried her best to spread her love evenly. She isn't as uptight as she was, but that doesn't mean she lets everything slide. My mom is somewhere in the middle.
My dad was at work. He's also changed a little, he's become more focused and involved.
I've loved having the attention I always wished for, but it wasn't really the same without Cass here.
Once my mom finished hugging me, Vanna hugged me. She had come from the kitchen.
She has her own house now, a husband, a wonderfull job, and she is four months pregnant.
'I've missed all of you.' I told my mom and she sister.
'We've missed you too, Chris. How is California?' Mom asked, and I launched into a conversation all about California and college.
I couldn't help but wish that Allison or Mathew were here.
Mathew now lives in Flordia with his girlfriend. He's retired from the military now and he is very happy.
Nobody knows where Allison is at. She skipped town two weeks after Cass's death and we haven't heard from her since. I just wish she is doing well. I hope she comes back home someday.
I always knew I would be back, that I couldn't stay away forever. But I needed to move on and start over.
I will miss Cass forever, but now I have to move on with my life. And slowly but surely I have been doing just that.
It doesn't matter that she wasn't my twin sister by blood, in my heart Cass always was my twin sister.
And speaking of that, I chose not to look for my biological parents.
I didn't see the point in looking through the past.
I was given up for whatever reason and I have a great family now.
Maybe some day I might want to find out if I have a brother or sister, but right now I'm happy with the family I have.
And even though I didn't think I would be back so soon, I'm happy I am. I've missed this place, and my family.
Eventually, I found myself in the kitchen chatting with Vanna and my mom as I helped them do the dishes.
And that's when the doorbell rang.
'I'll get it.' I said cheerfully as I put the dishrag I was holding on the counter.
I left the kitchen and crossed the living room.
I had just gotten to the door when the bell rang again.
'Hold on.' I muttered as I looked out the window beside the door.
A girl who looked to be fifteen or sixteen, was standing infront of the door.
She had shoulder length blond hair and blue eyes. She looked familiar.
I unlocked the front door, and opened it.
'Hello, I'm looking for the McNeil residence?' The girl asked, hesitatly.
I smiled at her. 'This is it. What can I do for you?'
'Is there a Christine McNeil here?'
'You're looking at her.' I decided not to ask her again what she wanted, I had a feeling she was slowly getting to it.
'Um, my name is Megan Hart, and I think you might be my sister.'
Hey guys! You have reached the end of Inbisible Twin. I will miss yall, and I hope to see everyone of yall in my other stories. At this time, I will not be writing an sequel. Sorry.
Well, goodbye everyone this was an wonderful adventure.
