It was the 1st anniversary of my twin sister, felicity's
death. At
the time I was 11 and I was overwhelmed with grief. We had invited our
Auntie Maureen and her son, Antony, to stay, as me and Felicity were
always like daughters to Auntie Maureen.
We were supposed to be
having a celebration dinner to remember all the good times we had
with Felicity, and to celebrate her passing over (we're a very
superstitious family and believe deeply in the afterlife etc.). No one
had uttered so much as a word since sitting at the table. It was a
very awkward silence. Suddenly there was an intense blast of heat,
(my sister died in a fire) and suddenly a sweet as sugar voice
echoed round the room, making tears well in my eyes. In was the
unmistakable voice of Felicity, singing her favorite song, London
Bridge is Falling Down.
This was the only time we were completely
certain that she had contacted us, so I guess that now she truly has
passed over.
I dedicate this story to Felicity, a loving sister, daughter, cousin
& niece.
To felicity, we will never forget you!
