Book 4 Chapter 6
It’s not goodbye, but see you later
Maggie
I sat in the funeral home, staring at the casket. Nash looked peaceful. The family gave me time alone with him. I glanced around the room at the empty chairs. It reminded me of when I grew up. My parents left me alone in an empty house besides my many babysitters. I never assumed I would have people who loved me. All I wanted was a family.
I sat there and sighed. Then someone sat down next to me. I glanced to my left to see Nixon. We glimpsed at each other as Nathan, Noah, and Nolan joined us.
“It’s not fair.” Nixon stared at the casket. “Nash was my best friend and brother.”
“Nash was our best friend and brother, too. How do you say goodbye to someone like that?” Nathan asked.
“You don’t,” Noah said.
We glanced at Noah.
