In the beginning it was a mix of tragedy – the death of my mother – and the new love between our parents that brought us together. More tragedy was responsible for us being driven apart. I often wonder whether we would have found each other again if Adam hadn’t called me that day. The string of circumstances that put me back in Brandon’s life seem too long and tenuous to contemplate.
I stand watching as my stepbrother presses his nose against the barrier encircling the wombats, so like his ten-year-old self I am almost transported back in time. He turns and beckons me closer and I stand with him, shoulder to shoulder, to watch the ridiculous brown furry creatures amble around. I watch him and am so damn proud of the man I have by my side.
He’s back in school, determined to get the qualifications he needs to do the things he loves. He sold his apartment and has used the money his mom left him to fund his education. It’s his way out of a bad place and I’m just happy for the change. He’s told me some about what his life was like but he prefers that I don’t get involved. He hasn’t been in touch with Adam and I don’t ask him about it. He talks when he needs to. I love him for every flaw, because they made him stronger. I know he still carries a gun just in case, but not in Australia. Here we are free to be kids again, and, as he tugs me over to where we can line up to hold the wombat, I giggle and hug him tight.
“We did it, Bran,” I say smiling. “Sammie and Bran Bran, friends forever.” He kisses me and reaches down to hold my left hand, fingering the thin wedding band that had been his mother’s.
“Yeah, baby,” he says, his broad smile creasing the corners of his beautiful lake colored eyes. “We did it.”
