A Season for Hope (Sarra Cannon)
“His was red, mine was blue.” He climbs up beside me and we snuggled close under the blanket. “We used to use them to build tents in the living room. Mom would let us leave them up for days and we’d sleep under there and hang out talking all night long. Those were the days.” I smile. “I didn’t know you had a brother.” He nods. “Jonathan. He was two years older than me.” There’s a sadness in his voice and when I turn to look at him, I see that his eyes are shining. Then I realize he used the word... ‘was’. My heart tightens in my chest. “What happened?” I ask, my voice almost a whisper. He takes a long breath in, then shakes his head. “I never talk about this,” he says. He looks at me and as our eyes meet, I can’t help but feel there’s something real here between us. “He died four years ago. Acute myeloid leukemia. By the time the doctors gave an official diagnosis, the disease was too far advanced. He needed a bone marrow transplant to survive and they couldn’t find a donor in time.”MoreLess
