My Brother’s Visit
When I was thirteen and my brother, Ollie was with me we used to choose objects that we would haunt, in the event that we would die. I chose (just to annoy Ollie) the toilet. He chose his bed.
A year later, shortly before our (we were twins) 14th birthday we decided to have a joke and we attached my scooter to his bike using a chain. We were having a good time, till suddenly, Ollie’s brakes seized up. He realized that he and his bike were heading for the main road and that I would be dragged in to.
The only way I could stop was if Ollie pulled off his back wheel, which we knew was weak. The chain was attached to the back wheel and I would be saved but Ollie wouldn’t. He kicked the back wheel and pulled it off, and I came to a slow halt once I pulled the brakes. Ollie went straight into the main road, and was hit by a lorry. He was killed instantly. The stupid stunt had cost my brother his life.
A couple of nights later, we were still starting to get rid of my brothers old clothes, but his bed was still in my room. As I was getting to sleep I heard a voice: “You never thanked me…” It whispered. I am 100% sure I didn’t imagine it. I looked over to the bed and a faint outline of a person sat on the bed, it disappeared a couple of seconds after I noticed it.
I think this was Ollie saying goodbye to me.

Hey Robin, that is really a touching story. I am sorry to hear about what happened to your brother. When I was younger my best friend, who was just like a brother to me, was killed. Several times over the years he has visited me in my dreams and every time I was aware that he was dead and asked him about it. He always says he doesnt want to talk about it but we talk about other things. The weird thing is that my mother and father are both dead and even though we were always very close I rarely ever dream about them and when I do it is just a normal dream where I am not aware that they are dead. I really think my friend contacts me from time to time in those dreams.
