One normal Sundays afternoon, on August 4th 2002, two little best friends were playing together, but that beautiful summers day turned into the nations worst nightmare. Holly and Jessica, both 10, were enjoying a barbeque at Holly's house, after Jessica had just returned from her holiday the previous day. They decided to go out into the town, thinking they would only be a few minutes, quick enough so Holly's mum or dad didn't even notice they had gone, but that quick trip to town turned into their last walk of freedom. Holly and Jessica never returned home that night to their parents or brothers and sisters.
That night, and the two weeks of searching for them turned into the familys most horrific nightmare that you could ever imagine. All the time, waiting for a phone-call from them, or every time the doorbell rang, but they never came home. And on August 17th 2002, their bodies were found in a ditch near Lakenheath, Cambridgeshire. And the news the families were dreading: their daughters were dead.
The search for Holly and Jessica, turned into Britain's biggest ever search, and the two beautiful girls grabbed the heart of everyone in the country. Everyone started to pray, and wish that those girls came home safely. But never did them prayers or wishes come true. My birthday was on August 9th and my birthday wish that year was that Holly and Jessica were alive and would soon come home. Thats the only ever wish of mine that has never come true. Every night i cried for them, prayed for them, and as i went to sleep the picture of them in their Man Utd shirts shadowed across my mind. On the back of their tops, was 'BECKHAM' the name of their hero and of mine.
Why? That's the quwstion on everybody's mind. Why were two beautiful little girls so wrongly taken from our world. Why? Who could do such a thing like that?
But now there was a glimmer of hope for the parents today as the evil, and sick man got sent down for two counts life after being found guilty of two counts of murder. But this isn't an ease of pain for the families, as he will still ahve nice, warm food, and have his own tele and most of all his life. Something which he so horrifically took from those beautiful angels.
I pray that Holly and Jessica are safe in heaven, watching down on their families at this supposed happy time. Never will we forget their friendly, happy, pretty little faces. Also i pray for their families, that they know everybody is thinking about them, everyone's prayers, thoughts and hearts are with them at this awful time. The last picture ever taken of them, that will be stamped accross our minds forever.
Holly and Jessica, i pray that you are safe in heaven, with the rest of the angels, like Sarah Payne, Milly Dowler, Danielle Jones and Jamie Bulger etc. At least now you are away from all the evil in this world, and now you can rest in heaven and come to no harm. You were two beautiful little girls and deserved none of this, you should be living your life, to the full. You were such clever, pretty little things, and your families love you so much.
God bless you angels, Rest In Peace xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You were two special little best friends that will be together forever!
Forver in my heart.
