Your companionship during school, your ability to protect me from my mother’s scolding, and without you, every festival feels incomplete. Today, you’ve gone abroad, but to be honest, the joy of our home has vanished without you. You’re no longer the laughing and joking companion, but your memories bring solace to my heart. Brother, no matter how far this distance becomes, the blessings and love of my heart will always be with you. Come back soon, to make our lives complete again. My dear brother, I miss you.”
