"Stop Anthony," I said as I rolled off of the couch laughing my ass off.

"Well, I told you to hand me the remote. And...you didn't. So I'm going to tickle you," Anthony said as he snatched the remote from my hand, "I warned you," he added.

Anthony then switched the channel from my show, Dynasty, to his football game.

"Your team sucks," I said before getting up and walking away with a huff.

I stormed into Maggie's bedroom. Mags was sitting on her bed doing her schoolwork as I took a seat next to her on her bed.

"Your brother is an asshole," I told her.

"Don't you think I knew that?" Maggie said.

She looked up slightly from her homework and sighed. " I'm sorry he's such an asshole. He is always to me. I wish he would just back off."

I rubbed her back, trying to make her feel better. I didn't have any siblings, so I didn't know what it was like to deal with somebody as annoying as him.
"Well hopefully, I think you're better over the next few years since he's leaving soon. Since he's going off to college, you no longer have to see him!" I told her reminding her that her brother is leaving for college in 5 months.

"Yeah, so what? It's still five months away. I still have to stay with him for much longer." She complained.

"Maggie. Please stop thinking like that. He'll be gone soon. Only five more months. I know he's an asshole. I'm so sorry you have to deal with him. But he will be gone soon."

"I know. I know I should stop nagging about it. But I don't know how I can. I'm so sick and tired of dealing with him every single fucking day. I'm not even one to cuss, but he makes me want to cut. He makes me want to scream and yell and throw stuff. He's so aggravating. He makes Mom and Dad hate me. I wish he would just go away and never come back."

"I know Maggie. And I am so sorry once again. I wish he would just back off. I wish you would just leave you alone. He does such horrible pranks to you all the time. He's so horrible. He just laughs in your face whenever he trips you all the time. He always gets you in trouble with your mom and dad. I can see it. They're giving up on you. I hate that they're doing that. It's all his fault. I wish one time he would just get a taste of his own medicine."

"Marissa! You just gave me the best idea. A taste of his own medicine... The perfect idea! I'm going to punish him for all the s*** that he's put me through."

"Maggie, don't do anything stupid. I mean it. He's about to leave. Don't make things worse. Don't make your parents more upset than they already are. You already grounded for the entire month. Just because of something he did. But I mean it, he can destroy you. Go make your parents hate you forever. He's evil." I warned her.

I didn't want to see my best friend getting hurt. And I knew Anthony would do that to her. Anthony didn't give two shifts about Maggie. Even though that was his sister. He was a selfish bastard, and barely showed any attention to his sister whatsoever. He was more fed up in his sports. He cared more about his friends, and was more worried about what pranks he was going to do to a sister, then how she truly felt about them.

They weren't even just pranks. He was straight up harassing her.

Every single day she would come to school saying how Anthony did something to her. Three out of the five days of school, she would have just come in telling me, she would come in crying saying something that happened that morning. For the night previous. It was so sad to see her that way, but I couldn't do anything about it. I wish I could. But there was no way of getting into Anthony's head.
