“YOU LEFT ME A BOYFRIEND!!!” I shout furiously at my sister over the phone. Actually, I’m not just furious, I am sardonically furious!
I hear her chuckle before answering me.
“Oh right.”
“Oh right?! You left me a boyfriend, Oh-right?!”
I shouldn’t be in this situation in the first place!
“Hot, isn’t he?” she mutters.
I scoff incredulously over her sensible response. She’s just so impossible.
“You gotta admit, my boyfriend’s hot.” She chortles.
“Well yes.” I answer senselessly. What?! Why did I say that?! “No! No?... No!” I bubble exasperatedly, debating with myself.
She chuckles again. Geez, she doesn’t even sound worried about me!
“Hey there dear sister,” she coughs twice before starting out a strange english accent that I don’t understand. “Yew betta keep-pop with thee blutty mah-velous act, yew-ah doowing serr wondewful serr faah.”
Goodness, what the hell is she saying?!
She laughs so loud right after that alienated speech. “I said, you are awesome! Keep it up okay? Just attend school and go home, attend school and go home, atte–“
“I’m not going back there! Not after your boyfriend ki –“ I clasp my mouth quick. That part should be omitted! What kind of a sibling, in her right track of mind, will admit that she’d kissed her sibling's boyfriend?
“Come again? I didn’t catch that dear sis?”
“I said, I won’t do it anymore!”
“Oh come on! You’re actually doing something remarkable for the first time in your life!–that I actually liked.”
“How about your boyfriend huh?!”
“What’s the matter with my boyfriend?”
“What am I gonna do about hiiimmm?!!”
“Uh silly! just don’t mind him.”
“W-WHAT?!”
“Stop whining, will you? So how’s fany? Did she find out?” she asks in a pitched voice.
“Who’s fany?”
“My loyal servant.” She answers, “Oops! Shoot! My friend! My friend.”
“You mean the pretty girl with the eye-smile?”
“PRETTY?! please.” she scoffs, I can mentally picture her smirking face.
“No. she didn’t notice it yet.”
“REEEAALLY?!”
I raise an eyebrow.
“Oh My God? She didn’t?! She’s really an idiot.”
“Hey that’s mean.”
“Oops sorry.” she says between choking giggles. “Hey I’ll call you back okay? Hold on tight there my dear sister! I sincerely love youuu! Mua!”
“H-Hey wai–“
Thud. Hangs up on me. Teet teet teet.
I jam my phone feebly but find my lips creeping to a soft smile. I heard it clearly; Jaera just told me that she loves me! No, she said, she sincerely loves me! Woah. that feels... awesome.
But then, a sudden flash of the scenes earlier throws me back to the main dilemma. I’m caught up between my weakness and my dream to make my sister like me. I always dreamed of having a good relationship with her, just like before, back when we we're still kids and we share and do the same things happily.
We used to be really attached to each other before. It’s like we couldn’t live far apart. Jaera was genuinely sweet and protective of me.
I can just smile as I remember those days.
I don’t know how her affection towards me changed all of a sudden. I want to believe that it’s just because of the influence of the outer world, not because she’s ashamed of having a weak sister like me.
This is why I hate thinking! It raises a lot of havoc inside my small brain, making me crazy!
I decide to just put myself to dreamland. If there’s one thing I’m good at, it’s sleeping.
But after my several and hard attempts to sleep... news is, I still can’t sleep. Ohmyfreakingosh, I-AM-A-HEAVY-SLEEPER why can’t I sleep?! I squeeze my eyes shut but the demigod’s face keeps on flashing inside my head, making me remember my first kiss!
MY VERY FIRST KISS!
I wobble on my bed like a crazy person in the mental hospital. I CANT GET THAT GUY OFF MY HEAD!!! He is making me insane! Just thinking of meeting him again plagues me! How can I even face him after I pushed him and ran away like a complete idiot?!
Why haven’t I thought of the possibility that Jaera could be having a boyfriend?! I always forget tha
