It was their anniversary. He was beaming and thanking all of his guests as they passed by to wish him and his wife the best. Peter waited in a corner watching all of the excitement. When he saw he had an opening, he stepped in and embraced his brother.

“Congratulations.”

“Thanks, Pete.”

He was unpacking boxes when he ran across a picture frame. Carefully Peter pulled it out and turned it over. Two faces smiled at him. Peter’s fingers felt numb as he stared at the picture.

But it made him miss Nathan, so he was forced to put it away again. He knew it would be there, though, in case he ever needed his brother.
