" Come on, I know you miss mom but... how could you just sit here and do nothing? Mom wouldn't want to see you like this Andre. She loved us more than anything and doesn't want to see you or me hurt."

I looked down at Andrea as she wiped the tears that began to fall down her face as she replied, "Alright. I'll go. But only if you're not wearing that. Mom PROBABLY wouldn't want to see you dressed like you haven't bathed in days."

I laughed along with Andre after she had said that.

"Alright! Get out of here so I can change!"

She threw something at me before running out of the room laughing. I'm not going to lie, I was laughing too. It had been so long since we'd laughed... really laughed, so I almost forgot what it sounded like.

I looked down still holding what Andrea threw at me and said in a whisper...

"Maybe things will get better, well at least enough for us to get through this together."
