The Child Who Witnessed the Greatest Scam in Sibling History
Just like my sister’s face when she realizes I’m
‘busy,’
yet in the exact same position I was an hour ago.
A facial expression that says it all.
Me: "I’m busy."
Also me: completely motionless for 3 hours.
The perfect crime.
A groundbreaking performance of exhaustion...
from imaginary labor.
She rolls her eyes,
sighs like a mother of five (but she’s eleven),
and wails my name like I just sold her to another family—
then she laughs, and I know I’ve won.
I Show Love Through Comedy; For Her, It's
Simply Being There
I was never one for plans, just hoping my future self
deals with it. But now, I’m pondering a career where I get paid to drag my
little sister around the world, sample the candy she swears is ‘the best thing
ever,’ and adjust my plans according to the rise and fall of her blood sugar
levels. Somewhere between the sugar highs and giggles, I found my favorite
plan.
If adulthood ever tries to make her boring, I’ll descend from the heavens and
handle this— with
water balloon sneak attacks, endless car karaoke, and dance-offs that’ll burn
calories and dignity. 🤣
