I remember the rush of mornings before school, when I tried to wake Jason up for the 15th time and how my little brother would have to run out the door, trying to catch me before I drove off. He was always just a few steps behind, backpack swinging, yelling for me to wait. I’d pretend not to hear sometimes, just to make him run faster, but I always waited. That one morning he didn’t make it in time still plays in my head.
Now, I hold onto those moments like they’re gold. The trouble, the laughter, the near-misses — all of it. He’s still with me in every rearview glance and every flash of laughter I hear in my head.
