I’ve lost my best friend—the Mario to my Luigi. I’ve lost one of the only people in my life who’s been by my side from the beginning, who accepted me, who offered me friendship in my loneliest hours and laughter in my saddest. Who knew my deepest, darkest secrets and loved me anyway. Who used his last moments on earth to forgive me for breaking a childhood promise. Who told me it was okay. But it’s not okay… He’s gone. Theo is gone. And now I have to go tell June that her brother is dead.
