A Sister's Diary

Dear diary,

I woke up at 7:00 a.m. today, and once again my brother was missing from our bed. He promised me that his face would be the first thing I would see this morning. He broke our promise, but it ain't a problem, cz promises are meant to be broken, and I might soon break a few of them.

But when I turned my head towards the other side I saw something, he left me some breakfast by my bed. It was the best he could make in a minute, a spoon of jam slapped onto a slice of bread. It was good. The thing which surprised me was his selfie picture beneath the plate.

He looked funny in it, and cute. If this is his way of fulfilling his promise, then he is wrong, because the first thing I saw in the morning was the empty space beside me, where he should have been sleeping. Oh God! I sooo want to tie him up to our bed, but I promised him, I won't do it.

As usual, I followed my timetable. My first class was French and as usual it was boring, the second class was Math and as usual it was confusing and the last class before lunch was judo, and it really hurts.

My brother was waiting for me at the dining table at lunch. I was peeved at that moment, so I ignored him, but he insisted on spoon-feeding me. Would you have accepted his offer if you were angry with him? Of, course yes. There is something in his hands which always made the meal a lot tastier than it was.

He asked me about how my day was, and I went on and on complaining about how strict my teachers were and how hard it was to high kick with ankle weights. He agreed with whatever I said, and soon lunch was over, and he vanished again till dinner.

Three more classes followed after lunch, Geography, human anatomy and swimming. Nothing much to tell about them. They were as boring as usual.

Looks like my stamina increased a lot compared to last week, now I am not as drained as usual after swimming continuously for an hour.

My brother looked exhausted when he returned home. I could smell his sweat on him, so as a good sister, I pushed him straight into the bath tub the first thing after he entered inside.

Of course, I joined him in the bath to scrub his back, I don't like it when he asks our maid to do it. Also, it is fun when we splash water on each other.

We had a light dinner after the bath. This time I insisted on feeding him, but he kept on rejecting my offer and running to the other side of the table, it hurt me a bit at first, but then he gave me an odd looking leaf.

Then he narrated an interesting story on how hard it was to get the leaf. Of course, I know it's all bullshit, but I kept the leaf in my collection.

Once again, I never got to see either mom or day today.

Me, Brother and park (Date)

Dear Diary,

I had sooo much fun today.

Firstly, at 7:00 a.m. today, my brother was still by my side. Do you know why? It's actually really hilarious.

I didn't sleep last night, I was on our bed by his side awake all the time till the morning. As I kept my ear on his chest, I both heard and felt his heartbeat against my head. Strangely, I felt as if my heartbeat went into sync with his and turned louder than usual, I could feel all of my senses throbbing with every beat. It was an unfamiliar experience, but it felt good, as if I was having an adrenaline rush even if I did nothing. I also did some other things, but they are a secret, even from you. For now.

Coming to the point, my brother first opened his eyes at somewhere around 6 in the morning, and that was when I fake slept. I already wrapped myself around his right hand till his shoulder.

You should have seen his expression at that time, he tried to undo his arm without waking me up. Haha hahaha. I, too, couldn't see it, but I felt it. His eyes and fingers on me.

One by one, he tried to unwind my fingers, and by the time he reached for the small finger, I would just grab him again with an even tighter hold. He tried that a few times before giving up on this move.

Next, he lightly touched my face, hoping that I would remove my hand to scratch my face. But I didn't do it for the first three times. On the fourth time, I removed my hand to scratch my face, I could hear him sigh in relief. But then again, I caught a hold of his arm. He flinched and jerked his arm, but I already had a tight hold of it by then. I could hear him cursing softly as he calmed down not to wake me up.

Until 7, we both were awake, but only I knew that for a fact. Of course, when I fake woke up, my brother fake slept so that I thought he was sleeping since last night. Hahaha. His fake sleeping face was so cute.

Secondly, today was a half day, so my classes were completed by lunch. I told our maid not to allow my brother to go anywhere, and she did exactly what I said. When I sat for lunch, he was tied to a chair by the dining table beside me. He tried to play it cool, but it was funny as hell when our maid untied the rope, and he hid his face in embarrassment.

Since I was free for the remaining day, I told my brother to choose a subject he would like to be taught by me. But my brother had something else on his mind, he wanted to take me to a park. Hell yes, at first I was soundless in surprise, but then I leaped on him with joy. It's been a long time since we went on a date, I mean outside our house.

I packed a good load of handmade snacks and orange juice. It may have been my excitement, but now that I think of it, I really went over board on it.

Our driver took us there by car and our maid wanted to follow us, of course I told them not to follow us, this was only meant to be for me and my brother.

Even after ordering them not to follow us, I could sense their eyes on us, and also I saw our driver dressed as a common man jogging around the park. The way my brother acted and bad-mouthed the maid for tying him, I am sure he didn't realize that we were being monitored.

First, we looked for a nice spot under a huge tree. Unlike the surrounding city, which is just made up of buildings and taller buildings, this park was the only place where you could see trees this huge.

Second, my brother spread out a blanket on the ground. Funnily, it was our bedsheet instead of a picnic carpet. I should have known what he meant by I will take care of it.

Third, I arranged all the dishes neatly, and then we ate them until we were full. I know I ate too many calories, I know it will take me a week to burn these excess calories, but I simply wanted to enjoy this time with my brother. Every dish he ate he praised me, I couldn't help but feed him more and more until he lay flat on the ground struggling to breathe.

I wanted to jump on him, but this would be pure sadism, so I just ate the remaining as we talked with each other. He still won't answer many of my questions, but I don't want to pressure him to answer me, as this can create distance between us and I would just hate it.

He said he wanted to buy some dessert, so I waited for him as he went somewhere. Even after 15 mins, he didn't return. Our maid and driver were only keeping an eye on me, so I ran to search for him, and there he was apologizing to a young woman.

When I called him, he came running towards me and explained to me how he bought an ice-cream, and it accidentally fell on the lady. Also, he asked me for some money because he ran out of them.

I was more than happy to give him, but not without pulling his cheek, such a cheeky bastard. I went to the lady and apologized to her.

I wanted to invite her home to wash her clothes, but as good-looking she was, I knew for sure my brother would have peeked when she took a bath. So, I just went after my brother to see where he went.

I sat on the bedsheet and acted as if I didn't know what he bought for me. We relished the delicious short cake and returned home. I wonder how my brother knows about these places and things. Maybe this is why he ran out of money so fast.

I feel weirdly close to my brother after returning home. I want to go out with him tomorrow again, but I will have these boring classes. As of now, I will just wait till my next half day or holiday.

Aha!...

I was going through the CCTV footage in the park and as I expected he intentionally stumbled on her. Such a cheeky bastard. Shall I not let go of him tomorrow again?
