The Last Letter: TikTok made me buy it

One last letter, a final wish, urging a journey to be by her side...

Beckett, if these words have found you, then you understand the significance of a final letter. You managed to survive, while I did not. Please, release yourself from the weight of guilt—you would have saved me if it had been possible. I’m asking just one thing of you: leave the army and head to Telluride. My sister Ella is on her own, raising the twins. She’s fiercely self-reliant and not one to easily accept help, yet she’s lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s far too much for one person to bear.

Knowing I’m not there is a harsh reality, and I cannot stand beside Ella or aid them through this difficult time. But you have the chance to do so. As my closest friend, I implore you to care for my sister and family. Please, don’t let her face it all alone.
