They say that when a cardinal comes down, it is someone from the afterlife who's coming to visit you.
This story is written about a girl, and her cat, who's more of a gaurdian to her.
The title and such will become more clear as the story progresses.
I think of my best friends everyday, and how they're both gone.
I always wanted to meet them. 1/11/15, cardinals visited my house.
And their names were
Mae and Claire.
R.I.P., my precious friends. I'm so happy you got to be together again, but so sad it had to be like that.
Suicide is dangerous, please never think about it. You'll never realize how much you mean to someone.
And that someone could really need you, and you wouldn't know it.
