Eric is leaving me.

He's moving to a college dorm, leaving me with our mother. I feel lonelier than I did before. Eric is basically my only family. Soon he's going to replace me with a girl that doesn't give a two shits about him and friends that'll get him into deep shitloads. I'm going to lose the Eric that is my brother, and I have no idea how I'm going to react to his new transformation. Eric is only like how he is, because he always came to me for advice, or I'll find out and make his shit straight.

Now, he's leaving, and I know he's going to fuck up everything. He won't be my brother anymore, and he won't see me as his baby sister who needs him to smile for a while but as his annoying younger sister who doesn't know shit about being happy or how to feel. Eric doesn't notice the negative, always the positive.

His room is empty, except for a small note addressed to me.

'Don't forget to smile, baby sister!'

And I'm pretty sure that's the last I'll hear from the Eric I know.
