This is a true story. I witnessed this happen but i am writing it in perspective of the boy.

On June 14th 1996, Me and my twin sister were born. I was named Tim and she was named Audrey. We were close as we were little we would always play and share and have fun.

As we got a bit older we were still as close as ever. One day we were sitting on a swing down by the lake by our house. Then she said "What happens when we grow older and we have other friends and we don't have time for each other." At that moment we made a pact that, every Saturday we would come down here and hang out and go swimming and have fun.We both agreed.

As we got older our looks and personality became more obvious. She was the drop dead gorgeous popular girl and I was the loser nerdy guy. She still stuck to her promise no matter what.

When we were 16, Audrey had a boyfriend. She had had many boyfriends before but this one was different. He changed her, sometimes she wouldn't even show up to our Saturday meetings. Audrey was named captain of the cheer-leading squad and he was captain of the football team.

One day I was walking down hall to my geography class when I saw Audrey and her boyfriend. I usually said hi to Audrey whenever I saw her in the halls so as I normally did I said " Hi Audrey." This time Audrey never replied she just ignored me and kept walking. i let it go because I thought she didn't hear me. After school I walked home with my only buddy Jimmy. I started telling him how Audrey was changing be he didn't believe me.

One Saturday, I went down to the swings waiting for Audrey. I waited for a bit but she never showed up. This was the 10th Saturday she didn't show up for. I texted her " Where are you?" She replied back almost instantly. I opened her text it said " Just leave me a lone. Your a pest, grow up you didn't think I would stick to our stupid pact. I have a life." I was shocked.i felt like i lost half of my heart, she was my twin we shared the same thoughts for half our life. I was always there for her and she was always there for me.

On Monday, i was depressed I couldn't focus on anything. I was walking to my locker at the end of the day and I saw Audrey and her boyfriend. I was trying to avoid them but I guess it didn't work. Her boyfriend yelled " Hey loooser how does it feel to have your own sister think your a creep." I was filled with anger but there was nothing I could do. Suddenly he came a knocked me over and everyone started laughing. It was terrible.

A few years passed and nothing changed. Audrey hated me and her boyfriend constantly hit me and slapped me and made fun of me. It was the day of graduation the day I would never have to see Audrey's boyfriend again. I had been accepted to a university near home and Audrey was going somewhere really far. I was at home while everyone else was at a party and having fun. It was the day before Audrey would be leaving. It was 12:00 am and my mom was worried that Audrey wasn't going to get home. My mom asked me to text her cause she was worried. I texted her asking her when she was getting home and she replied " Leave me a lone I will be home when I get home." I didn't bother telling mom that and I didn't want to ruin Audrey's fun. I told my mom she would be home soon thinking nothing could go wrong. At 1:30 am, my mom was to tired to worry so I told her I would wait for Audrey to get home. I camped out on the couch. I managed to fall asleep. At 2:30 am, the phone rings I slowly wake up and pick up. "Hello is this the parent or guardian of Audrey?" "No this is her brother is everything okay ?" "No, Audrey has been in a car accident and she is in critical condition." At that moment my heart stopped the girl who i grew up with who took care of me and loved me then turned on me and hated me is in critical condition. " I will be right there."

I didn't bother waking my mom I just jumped in the car and and drove off. When I arrived I saw her boyfriend and he ran up to me. For once I saw pain in his eyes and compassion not rudeness and anger. " Tim, they said she might not make it." Can you tell me what happened?" I said. " Its all my fault, She was drunk and i thought nothing of it, I told her to go home because she didn't look like she was having any fun." "Its okay she will be fine, what room is she in?" He pointed and I walked down the hall trying to fight the tears. I was almost at her room when the doctor popped around the corner and said " Are you Audrey's brother?" I nodded and he pulled me over to the side " Audrey is going to need a heart transplant otherwise she wont make it. "I will give her my heart" The doctor gave me a funky look and then brought me into the room to test me. He stared at me and said your a perfect match. I then called my mom and she rushed over in tears. " Are you sure you want to do this? She was hasn't been very nice lately." "I'm positive mom she may have not been lately but those days when we were kids were the best few years of my life and I will never get those years back." She hugged me with all her might and i could feel her tears running down her face. " I have one wish when I'm gone don't tell her it was me bring her to my tomb. Also can you bury me by the swings down by the lake." My mom nodded and walked with me into her room. I gave her a kiss then sat down and wrote her a note.

It was the day. The day I would give my life to my sister who was my only true friend. Audrey was still sleeping hanging on by a thread, I kissed her one more time hugged my mom and then started to cry. I lied down on the bed and they wheeled me and Audrey into the operating room. My mom took a picture to show Audrey when she recovered. I was put into sleep and that was it.

(Story is now in the moms perspective)
After a few days Audrey finally woke up. "Hello sleepy head how are you?" I said. "Mom what happened?" You were in a car crash and you needed a heart transplant. The look in her eyes was a look i hadn't seen since she was little. " When can we go home" I told her it was gonna be a few weeks.I need to go home and do something but your boyfriend is here to keep you company. I went home and we had a funeral for Tim beside the swings down by the lake. It was a sad moment but I knew this was what he wanted. I placed the note he wrote to audrey with the picture I took when they were going into the operating room.

2 weeks passed. It was finally time to bring Audrey home. We got home and you could tell she was relieved. "Hey mom i forgot to ask you, who gave me my heart." I placed a blindfold over her and brought her outside I placed her on the swing and told her to take of the blindfold. She took of the blindfold and stared right at the tomb stone. Her eyes were watery but you could tell she was confused. She walked over and sat right in front of the tombstone. The tomb stone was covered by the letter so she couldn't read what it said. She picked up the letter and unfolded it and began to read it out loud.

Dear Audrey

Please take care of my heart. Its been with you through everything. I am your donor you have my heart. My name is Tim we grew up together. You were my other half. We would share and play and laugh and always be together. We would play on the swings and go swimming in the lake. One day we made a pact that no matter what every Saturday we would play in the lake and be together. After awhile you broke that promise. You got a boyfriend. He changed you he made you rude and he made you hate me. you ignored me and never showed up to saturdays. Not only did you break the pact you broke my heart. When I got the call that said you were in the hospital I couldn't bear to think I could live without you. I decided to give my heart to you because you have more friends and more to live for. You may have not treated me right but you were the only person I was living for. Everyone hated me except you. I hope this is a good enough good bye for you and I hope you cherish my heart and remember me forever no matter who you are with or what you are doing. You were my twin my other half and now you have me in your heart forever.

Love you forever and always,
Tim

Audrey broke down in tears and picked up the picture. I saw the real her again. "Mom I don't deserve his heart. His heart is kind and beautiful and mine was mean and dark. I cant live with this." "Audrey he did this for a reason for you to live happy with him in his heart he wants you to live." She stared at me then looked at the tomb stone she read the tomb stone it said Tim 1996 - 2011 Loving brother and guardian angel of Audrey.

This story may or may not be true either way, it is touching. That boy gave up his everything just to make one girl , that didn't deserve it, happy and to let her live her life. She had broken his heart and gave him nothing more to live for . That maybe why he did what he did. But brother/sister love does make you do crazy things.

I hope his sacrifice was never in vain god bless him
It was such a touching story, I just wish Audrey would be much nicer to him, his life though quite lonely should be saved no one has to sacrifice themselves.

OMG I'm bawling my eyes out right now. That boy had such a kind heart that he would give his twin, the one who ignored him and broke his heart, his own heart to save her life. This is an amazing story that I will never forget. I will keep him and his family in my thoughts forever. God bless them xoxo <3
