Em's POV.

It was 8:30 am and I was laying in my bed not moving or anything. I've been like this ever since I came home I did the thing and laid on my bed and stayed like that I guess I was in shock that my sister passed away and I didn't know what to do I didn't cry at all I don't cry actually I've never cried before only when I was a little baby but when I turned 10 I never cried. One time I fell and cut myself and I needed stitches never cried

Flashback

"Come on Emmy jump nothing is going to happen I promise I'll catch you" Said connor I was currently on top of a tree that me and connor climbed he forced me to do it and when he jumped off I was scared because I didn't want to jump off and plus there was a sidewalk really close to where I'm suppose to land. I finally got over my fear and jumped , when I jumped I didn't land on the soft grass or in Connors hands I landed on a beer bottle which glass is now in my right hand "OWWWWW" I screamed "oh OH MY GOD EMMY... Its OK I'll go call your mom and dad don't worry" my parents came and took me to the hospital the doctor gave me a sticker for not crying once.

End of flashback

Connor was like a big brother to me he would always be there for me at one point I thought that we were twins since we looked a lot like each other but that was impossible since his birthday is September 12th and mine is August 12th just one month apart. I got pulled from my thoughts by my mom entering the room " OH HONEY how are you. are you okay? How are you holding up. did you eat anything today??" Typical...my mom always worries and over exaggerates when something bad happens in my life, since I was really close to be diagnosed with depression. " yeah mom I'm fine I'm just scared and no I haven't eaten anything today I was just laying in my bed " with that my mom went to the kitchen probably making me food my dad came in and he had puffy red eyes he saw me and gave me a big hug I knew they didn't blame me they aren't those kinds of parents they don't jump to conclusions me and my dad just stayed there hugging him crying and me emotionless... At first I was sad then I was mad at everything the people the world I even threw my phone across the room...I THREW MY PHONE that says something and now I'm just here don't know what to do or say. I feel like a object I'm just here I have no emotion right now and when people need a hug I hug them that's my purpose for now .... My mom came back with a plate with two turkey sandwiches and orange juice I ate because knowing my mom she'll freak out, when I first moved in here she would call me everyday making sure I ate and that would be our conversations she'll call I'll pick up she asked if I ate I would say yes tell her what I ate and hang up. I used to have a eating disorder because of everyone calling me fat and now I really don't care.

Skipping to day of funeral

Today. I was dreading today. I didn't want to get up or move today I get to see people that knew my sister and hear everyone say my condolences or I'm sorry for your loss and stuff like that I really hated funerals I wasn't good with goodbyes I would always expect them to come back somehow, and I'll keep my hopes up until I realize that they are never coming back I heard a soft knock it was my mom she had puffy red eyes she's been crying herself to sleep for the last couple of days. "Hey honey wake up it's time for you to get ready" she knew how hard i was taking this I grumbled and okay and got ready I put on my outfit which consisted of (in the picture) black lace dress with black heels and infinity necklace and heart earrings that necklace was Meghan's favorite one.

In ceremony

Everyone came. people who were really close to Meghan, people who were really close to me, and people who were really close to both of us some teachers even came. Everybody was giving me hugs and saying how sorry they were. I don't know what to say when they say sorry like why are you saying sorry for it wasn't your fault at all. I just give them a weak smile in return when I thought it was over and people were done giving me hugs i saw 5 boys and an unfamiliar boy that were walking my way all in suits part of me is kind of happy that they showed another part of me just wants to run and hide but that part was there ever since I got to the ceremony. they came up to me and hugged me and said that they are sorry one by one. my parents were close by also receiving their hugs mostly my dad my mom kept on crying when the boys went to go give them their hugs at first they were surprised because they didn't know that they were living here. My parents knew I got bullied but never knew by who. When they saw connor they got all tense and my parents exchanged looks they talked to the boys and were coming my way. "Honey we need to tell you and connor something..... Not here though later at the house would you guys like to come over for dinner?" I was scared/confused/ surprised . I was scared because one I  didn't want my bullies in my house second when someone says they need to tell you something its never good. I was confused because I didn't know what they were going to say and finally I was surprised because the boys actually said yes

Later at home dinner time

I changed into my PJs and went to dinner. What its not like I'm going to impress anybody, people that I dislike are coming over and I don't need to dress to impress just dress. I heard a knock and voices it was them. I went to the dining room and we were all eating in an awkward silence you could only hear the forks hitting the plate. "Well we invited you guys over because we need to tell you all something" I jumped I didn't expect my mom to talk I was going to say something but I let her finish "well first Emily me and your father are moving here not in this house though a better one (ugh I secretly wanted to move to many memories here) we got a promotion so that's going to help us secondly ...." She looked at my dad and he nodded this can't be good my dad continued "secondly we have....well we lied to you about two important things.... First Emily your birthday is on September 12th" why would they lie about my birthday " and secondly yourbrotherisconnorwellactuallyheisyourtwinbrother" I was confused "wait what??" Me and connor said at the same time everyone else had a confused face on like if they understood but thought they heard wrong ..."okay dad say it slower so we can understand you" he hesitated "you have a brother a twin brother actually" I started to make the connections from them lying about my birthday to how me and connor look alike I was hoping I wasn't right he continued " and that twin brother is ....well he is connor" my stomach dropped.
