It's been a while hasn't it Brother? I've lost track of exactly how long, but I know it's been at least a month, maybe more. …You just had to go and do it didn't you? How did you think I could ever live without you? Especially if it was my fault? Did you even realize what you were doing? Once I swear I heard your voice say, 'I didn't think you'd be this upset. At least not for this long.'

Why the hell would you think that?! Did you think I would just mourn for a while and then say, 'Well, life will go on'? How can my life go on without you? Perhaps that's another reason why I do this. Stay here, I mean. Technically I am near a part of you, even if that part is the remains of your body and your grave. I'm sorry, I know I'm probably overstaying my welcome but I couldn't leave you in life, why would death be any different? The main reason I keep staying here is because, well you never know what some one might try do with your grave.

I don't want anyone trying to use your remains to make a Homunculus or something. After all you've been through in life, you deserve to be in peace. Speaking of, I could try it. My body, mind, and soul would be an Equivalent Exchange for yours wouldn't it? But you never know, it might not. A life for a life has never been enough. That's why I don't try it. And besides, even if I did, I know my sacrificing myself for you would make you sad, and then you'd probably be your silly stupid self and bring me right back wouldn't you? And if it didn't work, then there wouldn't be anyone here to protect your rest.

One day, I think it was when you were still alive, it dawned on me that there was actually one way I might've been able to save you from all your guilt and pain. But even though your not feeling it anymore would've been a good thing, I don't know how fair that method would've been. And besides, I didn't want to risk messing up and possibly ending up wiping any of your happy memories or hurting your mind any more then it already was.

Speaking of minds, sometimes I can see you. It's usually only for a few seconds, sometimes even a few minutes. I know you're not happy about me doing this, and I'm very sorry for spoiling any happiness or peace you might have initially felt. I also am sorry for making our friends sad by always staying here, but like I said before, I can't leave you in life or in death.

Winry and Granny Pinako bring me my meals to your grave. They sometimes try to coax me into leaving. Our other friends sometimes try to too but I think everyone understands by now. I know it makes them sad but they've always got each other to lean on. Like I said before, I'm sorry for making everyone sad, but I don't eat a lot of my meals. I'll sometimes eat a little, if any of it, and I'll drink but that's it. I let the animals around here have it so people won't be sadder.

Maybe that's what's causing me to see you. I know the dead can't come back to life, so maybe I'm hallucinating. Maybe I'm dying and managing to catch brief glimpses of you. Maybe I'm just delusional or maybe I'm going crazy. If I am, than I wonder if I'll end up killing myself. Maybe I'm trying to do that. If I should die, then we'll finally be together again.

Then I'll make absolutely sure that you're happy and safe.

Because I love you Brother. I'm coming for you.
