The twins run through the street.

Alfred and Matthew, everyone knew that you never saw one without the other. Together the boys ran a courier service, taking letters and messages back and forth around town for people.

Matthew was the polite one making sure to receive and relay the massages exactly as they are told to him. Alfred is the one that makes sure Matthew gets to where he is going safely, glaring at adults and mean dogs alike to keep Matthew safe.

So it came as a shock one day when Alfred showed up alone to Miss Kirkland's house.

"Where is your brother today?" She asked after paying for her letter.

"He… he had to leave with my daddy." Alfred said with a slight sniffle.

"I'm sorry to hear that, where did they go?"

"Mommy says they went to heaven, but I know that even though Mattie can't be here that he would want me to continue to be the hero and help people, so I'm going to keep delivering messages." He says with determination.
