He remembered that song. How could he forget? It was the song he played as loud as he could so she could sneak in the house. Their dad would scream at him and conveniently not be able to hear her coming up the stairs.

That song didn’t make him smile anymore. It made him cry.

He lay down in the soft grass, letting the rain soak his body. His jacket covered the radio so it wouldn’t get wet.

He played the song just for her.

“One last time. So you can sneak in one last time,” he always said.

When the song was over, he stood. He was covered in mud and grass stains, but he didn’t care. He kissed the cold stone and walked away.

No matter how many times he played that song, she would never be able to sneak in again.
