Thanksgiving really hasn't been the same since we lost Erika, it's like she was the staple to everyone being together. The only family I have on Long Island are my two older cousins, their husbands, and their three kids. We've spent every Thanksgiving together besides this one; this year it was just my parents, Theresa and me. It's been a year and a half but it's all still so surreal to be and when the three people I told at school try talking to me, there's nothing they can say. And the thing is, I don't want them to say anything most of the time. I hate saying that they have no idea but they do have no idea, and I hate feeling like an asshole for saying that.
Closing my eyes and seeing police tape and reliving that day is just too much for me.
