Cori and I, I hate to say this, aren’t as close as we once were. And honestly, it’s only because of the distance. Instead of spending every day practically together, it’s only twice a year now, a week each time. The distance sucks, but we’re both finally grown enough to not need each other as we once did. I miss her all the time, of course, but I’m so happy in where I’m at right now, I wouldn’t change it for anything.
And seeing my sister overcome all she did, and become who she is now, I don’t think she would either.
When we get together, she even treats Hangman as her own father, and it’s probably because she knows what he did for us when it came to our mother. She’s grateful for it, even though she thought Mom's death was overkill on his part.
