...

everybody has their own struggles.

big or small.

you and ellie were two sides of the same coin. similar circumstances shaped by entirely different reactions, two people carrying grief in opposite ways while slowly falling apart beneath it.

while loss turned ellie loud, reckless and self-destructive, it turned you quiet and responsible far sooner than you, a still maturing young adult, should've ever needed to be. though, truthfully, your situations were never really comparable.

ellie found joel murdered and has been haunted ever since by the image of him and the unbearable weight of justice never feeling enough, never coming fast enough, never bringing him back.

you were waiting for a sibling. half-sibling or not, it never changed the love you already carried for them before they were even born. you were expecting a new presence inside the house, small laughs, cries during sleepless nights and all the chaos that came with a growing family.

instead, you were left orphaned.

your mother died bringing new life into the world and suddenly you became responsible for a child you had never prepared yourself to raise alone.

different kinds of grief.

different kinds of damage.

but in the end, both of you were exhausted.

both of you understood pain far too well.

and despite your paths seeming so distant from one another, even while living inside the same small town, maybe lives could still change through the smallest moments.

maybe all it really took was a single interaction outside a twenty-four hour store late at night to change everything.
