36 Memories part 2

The memories of us playing in this park the imaginary games we would play. I found myself under the tree we had carved. I remember when we first go split up we would promise we would meet at this tree on April 20th every year until we could be together.
I couldn't do it last year because I was in Oxford. Oh how I wish I could have been here. I look at the carving again.  There is a new one.

Please Lyn please come next year

Lyn was his nickname for me. My brother was here. Right where I am standing. May I add my twin one. I'm going to come here April 20th and hope for the best. The reason why we picked April. Is because we had a younger sister called April who didn't survive birth. She would have been a year younger that us. But she was born and dead on April 20th. As you can tell I have a very messed up past. Wait if the park is here right over that wall should be the graveyard where we buried April. I hop the wall and walk down rows of graves until I come to a small but meaningful one. Aprils. It's a small grave with a small grave stone. Fresh flowers places on top. He was here! I stroke the grave and I see a small card in the flowers. Curiousness took over me and I slowly opened it.

Heya April. I wish you were here. You could be with me and we'll I can't find Lyn. She was brought to a different care home somewhere out of Brighton. I really miss her and you. I sometimes sit by the beach remembering the memories. Anyway hope your enjoying it up there. I'm going to be there soon. I have cancer and not long to live.
Love your awesome big brother! 24th of March 2016

I chuckle at the end of it. Definitely something he would do. I have a pen on me and I write on the back of the card.

Hey baby sis. I read his letter. He a funny one isn't he. Imagine if you hadn't died. It could have been us three. But nada. I miss you and your awesome big brother. I really wish we weren't separated. I was at the park beside the graveyard. I really really miss you and him. Hopefully I'll se you soon. And you too Bro
