When Kira got home, she saw Minho and her parents waiting. Minho had tears streaming down his face.

"Akira told us." "I'm sorry, Kira. But you made him take his life. I can't let you get away with that. You hurt me in so many ways. You have no idea what you took from me." Minho says in an broken tone.

"I'm sorry.. I'm sorry, Akira." She hugs her brother but Minho doesn't hug back. He disowned her the minute he told her he will never forgive her.

"Let go of me."

Kira lets go in shock.

"How did you even know Stiles?" Kira asks softly.

"Kira-" Noshiko starts but Minho cuts her off. "No, it's fine, mom." Minho takes a breath.

"I knew Stiles as Thomas. He saved my life. More than once. And because of you, I couldn't save his. I know damn well that you're not the only one to blame but you're one of them." A few tears find their way down his cheeks again.

"I'm sorry.. I'm so sorry, Akira. I didn't-" "didn't think he would actually do it? Well he did. He did, Kira. He did and thanks to you and so many more, I lost both of my best friends. Both on the same hands." Minho is full on crying right now.

He takes a deep breath. "I forbid you to go to his cremation." Kira looks at him with wide eyes.

"You can't do that Akira!" She yells. "Actually, Kira, he can. And even if he didn't, you still wouldn't be allowed to go."

"Akira didn't even know him that well!" "Did you get a letter or goodbye?!" Minho yells at Kira as he stands up.

She takes a step back. "...You did?" Minho storms upstairs to his room and comes back with the letter.

"Here! See! He wrote me a letter! Read it, Kira! See how it's his handwriting?! Do you see that?! He told me goodbye!" Minho yells as he shows Kira the letter. The last thing he has from Thomas.

Kira reads it and looks confused.

"My hair is better then you? Is that code or something?" Kira furrows her brows. "It's an inside joke. A joke I'll never be able to make without crying now, thank you very much. I hate you so so so so much." Minho's crying again.

"Akira-" "save it. I hate you and there's nothing you can do about it. If I see you at the cremation, I'll kill you. Don't think I won't." Kira's eyes water. She nods.

She wants to leave to go upstairs. "Kira. Wait a second." Ken speaks. "Yes?" She turns back around.

"Don't ever speak to me again." Minho says with tears streaming down his face.

The tears in Kira's eyes spill over. She just got her older brother back and now he hates her.

*****

The next day at school there was a shrine.

The Gladers and Scorchers tear it down. These words aren't meant. Thomas would hate it.

"What are you doing?!" Lydia yells with tears in her eyes.

"He would've hated that shrine. The words weren't meant. He would whoop our asses if we'd let it hang there." Aris answers.

"You didn't even know him." Theo spits. "Guys. Let it go." Kira says in a depressed voice.

"For once I agree." Minho huffs, Kira gets a hopeful look in her eyes. Minho sees it. "Don't get your hopes up. I still hate you. You're not my sister anymore." The look in Kira's eyes gets depressed again.
