MISS PERFECTIONIST

STEVE IS HOME

I was still in my fairytale when Mom came running to me to inform me about Steve's arrival.

Steve Mac lane is my eighteen year old brother ...who is coming back from military school after two years. I have not seen him since then. Mom used to visit him on every birthday. But I never accompanied her. Steve and me don't share a good relationship.Actually we are far away as siblings.

When I was eleven my parent's conflicts arosed. Two years later Steve and me shifted with mom to an apartment offered to her by her office. Steve was the only man with at our place but he never took the responsibility. Instead he choosed to run away from his duties ,from mom ,from me ,from our little family and from our expectations.

It is Sunday today and I am home for the weekend which directly indicates that I have to tolerate my insane brother. He will be coming in an hour. Mom is making apple pie for him and I am forcefully asked to clean his room.

I went to his room and found that there was nothing to clean because his room looked the same as he left it two years back.All things were still at the same place. Mom used to arrange his room regularly to feel Steve around.

Mom and Steve always had a special connection before my parent's separation. Our domestic conflicts left a huge impact over Steve.

"Myra come down honey Steve is home" Mom called me from the hall. Finally I will see my brother after 2 years.

When I reached hall I saw a handsome man standing in his late teens. Steve had actually turned muscular. His body was perfectly toned. His light beard suited him well with his rough hair. Must say my brother looked impressive.

"Hey" Steve greeted me without even looking at me. I don't know why he behaves like that with me. I am his younger sister whom he used to treat like his little princess years back and now he can barely exchange a word with me.

"Hey how was school....you know we missed you so much " I stared to come up with a conversation.

"Good" steve answered

I frowned to his answer he could have said that he missed us too.. was it so difficult for him. Why he shows all that attitude to me and mom.

I spent the rest of the day in my room to avoid my over egoistic brother. At night I went to the backyard to switch off the lights and I found Steve sitting over there. I went to him.

"Are you alright" I asked him

He turned towards me and his eyes were red. It scared me to see my brother in such condition. I tried to hold his face to wipe his tears but he shrugged my hand.

"It's none of your goddamn business Myra just go away"
Steve shouted on me

"But I am concerned for you I can't leave you like this" I tried to comfort him.

"Just stay away from me you get that" Steve looked so angry at that moment he scared the shit out of me.

Tears came in my eyes my cheeks were burning. My throat was choking because I was holding my tears. I ran as fast as I can and went straight to my room.

How can Steve change so much. I was his little princess. He used to love me a lot. But what I saw today made me feel Steve's hatred. I kept crying for hours. I don't even remember when I slept.
