Saving Sisters

“I don’t know what to do,” said Walter, sounding helpless. “I just… I never thought I wouldn’t be able to save her. I refused to plan for something I thought would never happen, and now I don’t know what to do.”

“You keep going,” Sylvester said. “Walter, we save people. It hurts more that you couldn’t save Megan because she’s- was- your sister. But what about all the sisters we have saved?”

Walter blinked. “Is that supposed to make it hurt less?”

“No. It should make you keep trying.”

“That’s… very wise, Sylvester,” he said.

His brother-in-law-managed a smile. “Thanks.”
