Messages To A Ghost (Why did you leave?)

Subject: Come Home.


Fitz, I know things haven’t been going well for you recently – but please come home. Your sister misses you so much, and I’m not sure how much more of this she can take. We will get you help, okay? I know a great doctor and she has agreed to see you every day if she must.

Subject: Where are you?


Dear Fitz,

It has been almost three months since I have last heard from you, I am worried. You have never been the type of person to abandon your responsibilities, you have always been a good boy; why have you done this? Your boss keeps calling and asking where you are, what am I meant to say? How do I tell people that my sweet baby brother has abandoned everything?

Fitz, I miss you with all my heart – come home and we will find a way to fix this mess. Please. You are all I have left in this world, and I can’t keep looking at an empty room.

Fitzy, come on mate, this is getting stupid. I know that you have had a hard time what with your boss turning out to be a right wanker and selling your invention to some shady people…but your sister, and my wife, both miss you. Come home, or at least give me a bell and let me know you aren’t dead.

Second message received at 5:29 PM on the 10th of August –

Doctor Simmons, it has been almost four months since your last appointment. As you are aware, your condition requires continued care - we advise that you ring us back immediately and set up an appointment to see the doctor for your first round of Chemotherapy. Please call us back on...Message Deleted

Fitz...why didn't you tell me? I had to find out through a letter. COME. HOME. Please. Please. Please. Come home and we will get you the best doctors that money can buy, we can beat this...come home.

YOU HAVE CANCER?! GET YOUR BACKSIDE HOME NOW SO WE CAN FIGHT THIS!

Fourth message recived at 1:07 PM on the 17/08/2018

Fitz, I love you...wherever you are. If you won't come home, then...I guess I have to come to terms with the fact that my baby brother is going to die and there is nothing I can do to fix it. Just remember that I love you with all my heart...good bye.
