Brother and Sister: REUNITED (Mianite Fan Fiction)

Telling the truth

I literally told them everything they needed to know to understand my situation.
I told them how I'm only 15, about to be 16 and how Jordan took care of me, when no one did....

*Daria is 9 and she lives at an orphanage*

-Hey, little girl- I have seen this guy around, he is like 6 or 7 years older than me... But ever since he saw me that one time at the cafeteria he's been more than nice... Almost like the big brother I could never have.

-Hi- We have talked and played and he has even stolen food from the kitchen so we have a nice meal... Even though he gets punished- How have you been?

-Not so great- he had a huge bruise going from his neck to his arms.- they punished me again for smuggling food for us and other kids.

-That's bad... You shouldn't do that.

-But I have to... Daria they need the food and... They give us so little. Those kids are starving, we are starving... I just have to help them.

-Then I'll help you so you won't have to carry all of that weight all by yourself...- he opened his mouth to convince me not to do it- and this will not be brought up to discussion.

*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!
*Daria is 12*

-Come on sis-He went into my bedroom and woke me up-. Pack your stuff and let's get out of here.

-Where are we going?

-I don't know, I just know that we have to get out of this hell hole right now.

-And what about helping the others... I've been punished too for that, remember?- Pointing at my wrists with rope cuts and marks.

-I know, trust me, I know but the the thing is that the senior guys are getting everyone out but, both of us gotta separate from the others... I don't feel good about their plan. And unfortunately we can't take anyone of them, so you are gonna stay with me the entire time and then we will run off somewhere safe, got it?-. I nodded and packed a backpack with some clothes and ran off with Jordan by my side.
We ran off to a near village, we got supplies and then we took off to find a better place, a better life and of course a better destiny than the one waiting for us at the orphanage.

!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!

*Daria's 15th birthday*

-Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Daria, happy birthday to you.- He woke me up with a Red Velvet cupcake (my favorite) with a purple candle on top.

-So, what's my birthday present?

-It's your... First tattoo!- He gave me a coupon.- A friend of mine has a place and offered me this because it was your birthday... I know how you hate those marks on your wrists and how you wanted to cover them with something significant, We've been planning it for years, remember?

-And have a permanent reminder that life can get better... Yeah we have, thanks big brother-. And I hugged him tightly, the last time I would ever hold him again...

!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!*!

Then I moved on to tell them how I got here and why I haven't gone to see Jordan. I finish telling the story of how we got to be brother and sister with teary eyes as I watch my wrists with that constant reminder of how I got those tattoos and what they are: Two lines going around my wrists and stitches going across them. To tell myself that when you feel most desperate and broken, the pieces can reunite and make something else, something better and stronger. How could he forget me? Our life together? Our adventures and all the crap we left behind? Or maybe his subconscious wanted to forget all of that crap and with that, me included as a terrible side effect.
