She walked out onto the deck of the house and looked down at the picnic table where her family was sitting moments ago. But now everyone was walking around cleaning up. She saw Johnny giving Derrick some advice on his bike, and immediately thought He's so good with children. Someday he'll make a great father! Whoa! Where'd that come from! But as she looked down at Bradin, Nikki and Derrick, she realized that Simon's proposal and Johnny admitting that he still loves her wasn't what made her life complicated, the death of her sister did. She missed her so much. Throughout all of her life, her sister was always there for her. Right now, if her sister were still alive, she'd be calling her in Kansas at this moment to get her opinion on what she should do about Simon and Johnny. She counted on her older sister so much, but most of all, she looked up to her. Ava secretly always wanted to be just like her sister. Her life seemed so wonderful. It's just not fair! She thought as a tear slid down her cheek. With one last look at the children she walked back in the house and down the stairs toward the cabinet which contained the things her sister left behind.
