Warning: A bit of cursing

Nick pov

I stared at dad in shock. It came to me realised she was dead.

"It should've been me". I said as tears streamed down my face.

I collapsed to the floor. Dad held me.

Chris and Aaliyah came. They were told what happened and they began to cry too.

Diana was dead. I didn't know how I could even get over her death.

She was my sister. Dad was crying too.

Diana. I cried out.

I will go call it. The man says and goes in.

I am coming I need to hold her hand as she goes. Dad says

Me too. I say.

Okay, come. He says.

We both held one of her hands in our hands. Dad was at one side and I was at one.

Diana Samuel Radford time of death 21 30. Cause of death Heart malfunction. He said and started removing all her machines.

Goodbye Di. I say.

Goodbye hun, I am sorry I didn't fulfill all you needed. Dad says

She is packed in a bag and they just take her.

I start to cry. I couldn't hold them in.

Nick, it's okay let it out. Dad said hugging me.

Nick hun we are so sorry. Aaliyah said.

Just go away. If you would have someone look after your 8-year-olds she would be alive right now. She wouldn't even be hurt. If you hadn't taken us away From Sam we would have never come to our house which wasn't freaking locked she would have been alive, we would enjoying right now not crying. Just go. I shout.

Nicholas language. They shout.

Don't shout at me go away. I don't want you with me ever. You are the ones that killed Diana. She was my sister now she is gone. So, please don't take anyone else away from me. I say.

They go away.  I sat on the floor with dad. He was just sitting there with his head between his knees.

Nick come here. He said.

Yeah, dad. I say.

See, you did everything you could to save her. She was shot badly she lost a lot of blood so we couldn't save her either. Dad said.

Dad what if I would have just pushed her out of way? I say.

You couldn't these things happen fast. He said.

I kept my head on his shoulder. And started crying.

After 10 years............

I was 18 now. In college, but still, I had the guilt that I killed Diana.

I still remember the day of her funeral like it was yesterday. She was amazing there were a lot of people there. The theme was to have something purple on you.

I wore the purple watch she bought for me. I don't know why she bought a purple one but she did.

The whole time, I was crying I couldn't even stop. Dad was sad I knew but he just held it in.

Me and Dad were still in contact I even visited him whenever I had vacations like it was a long weekend or Christmas or Summer.

Hey Nick. My friend saying that pulled me out of my thoughts.

Hey Conrad. I say.

Today was siblings day. So, there were brothers and sisters all around the campus.

I picked my photo of Diana and started talking to her in my mind.

I was talking to myself but in her voice.

I was just roaming around with Conrad he didn't have a sister either. When I got Dads call.

Be right back C. Dad calling. I said and went into a corner.

Hey Dad. I say picking up the call.

Hey Nick. How have you been? We haven't talked in 2 weeks. He asks.

Yeah dad I have been a bit busy with college. And I am good. How are you? I asked.

I am good. Just come over soon. There haven't been any long weekends or holidays. I miss you. He says.

Dad I miss you too. But this semester ends in 3  to 4 weeks then I will be flying back home. I say.

Alright. Good luck. He says.

Thanks dad. Goodnight. I say.

Have a great day Nick. He says and hangs up.

Yeah, I said good night. It was morning here but it was night for him. Our timezones were different now.

I joined Conrad back and we just roamed around.
