The Goodbye

They were getting ready to leave, those two men of mine.  Andrew was in the car while Paul completed a few last minute tasks before their weekend away.  Mandy took this time to speak to her brother.  It was all very secretive.

As they pulled out of the driveway, we watched and waved our goodbyes.  Then, Mandy turned to me to tell me what she said to her brother before they left.  "I told him that it wouldn't be the same without my best friend," she said.  My heart melted a bit as my girl revealed her feelings for her older brother.

Then, I smiled as she told me his reply.  "But I'm your brother.  How can I be your best friend?" 

"Andrew!  You may be my brother, but you're also my friend!"

Sweet, this little relationship they have.  I hope it lasts forever.
