He lied! Edmund lied! He came through the wardrobe with me and saw Narnia too, but when we got back he lied and said it was just a game!

Why do brothers do that sort of thing?

Comments

[hands4healing]

Because brothers can be mean sometimes.

[lionheartedly]

Do you have them too?

[hands4healing]

I have two friends, and we grew up together. They're not my brothers, but they're my family.

[lionheartedly]

Cousins?

[hands4healing]

No, they're my best friends. We grew up together, and when their mom died, my granny was made their guardian.

[lionheartedly]

Where are your parents?

[hands4healing]

They...died, when I was about your age.

[lionheartedly]

I'm sorry.

[hands4healing]

So am I. I miss them, a lot.

[lionheartedly]

My Daddy's gone away to war. I miss him too.

[hands4healing]

That's what Mom and Dad did, they went to war, but they were doctors.

[lionheartedly]

Is that how they died?

[hands4healing]

...Yes. [More or less.] They were very brave to go, and I - admire them for doing it.

[lionheartedly]

So would I! But... it's sad when they don't come back.

[hands4healing]

Yes, it is. And then we have to live on without them, and it's hard.

[lionheartedly]

... I really am sorry.
