“It’s…it's all different, isn't it?” Emily whispered, her voice barely audible. Her brother, David, put an arm around her, the gesture spontaneous.

He reached for her hand and gave it a squeeze. “We’ll get through this,” he said, his voice firm. He knew, somehow, that this would bring them closer.
