The house seems oddly empty. It echoes with her absence. I didn’t mean to let her down, I didn’t mean to not be there for her. Death, I have seen it myself in the Troubles, but to face my own parents’ deaths was more than I could take. She has every right to be angry with me.
Strange, how I could be brave enough to wait for danger at Crickhollow, court danger from Lotho’s cruel Men, but I can’t find the courage to talk to my own sister about what’s important to her.
I’m so sorry, Estella. I miss you.
