Dear Ezinne,
On this special day of ours, I wish you a very happy birthday. The reality of your passing has refused to sink and keeps piercing my heart. Sending you birthday wishes, knowing there will be no corresponding response for the first time ever, pierces my heart even further! Even more devastating is that your phone lines are permanently turned off! I know you are happy in heaven and that makes me feel better.
The last 10 months have been the most horrifying period of my life as I have had flashes of wonderful memories that will never be recreated. I have thoroughly missed you and indeed everyone has missed you greatly. We may never be able to spend time together again but I want you to know that you are always loved and forever in our hearts.
Your beauty, love, kindness, pure heart and signature smile have stayed with us till this very day. If I live my life a million times, I will wish you to be my twin sister each time! Indeed, I wish there are visiting days in heaven so I can pass this message directly.
Today offers me yet another opportunity to reassure you that your darling daughter, Amanda (who in a very interesting twist insisted I got her ready for school this morning) is in very safe hands and shall know no lack.
Happy birthday once again! May your beautiful soul continue to rest in perfect peace! Amen!
From: Osita Odafi - Your Twin Brother
