I was going about my very mundane day when memories of my late sister rushed through my mind. It all started with a song, one I use to remember her, GOOD SPEED by Frank Ocean. Every Time that song comes up I am overwhelmed by strong emotions. I relive the day of her passing. She did not have to through that experience and so do I.

I remember seeing her take her breathe. It was such a terrible sight. She fought hard and long. Life never gave her any chance at normalcy, but she never gave up. She wanted to live and she did that to the best of her ability. My sister was a fighter.

This is a hard piece to write because it tears me apart, but I do it regardless and for the simply reason of wanting to remember. I want to remember her because it is the least I can do for her. I wasn't the best brother and some part of me still feels guilty for her passing. I could have taken care of her a lot more like my father would advocate, knowing I was the only she had and I was her Big brother.

Our last moments together were intimacy and tough. I did not know how much I loved and cared for her until then. When everyone else could not stand the sight of her, I was there and I wish I was there even more and for that I apologise Chidinma.

I was joking with my wife the other day that she would be the same age as you Chi. She has your complexion and her head is as small as yours. You would have liked her, you liked everyone. I miss you my baby and I don't know if I should be posting this but I also feel obligated to do so. There are no pictures to remember you, so I need to keep my memory sharp.

I hope wherever you are things are a lot easier than they were here. Love and love Chi.
