I am so excited yet nervous and scared , school is right around the corner. I keep questioning myself whether people will like me there? Or if they are friendly? Or if I'll be on my own in such a huge school? I really don't know, I just really hope everything turns out great. Chloe will be the one I'll miss the most, all our jokes and hang outs together, and the one thing that I'll definitely miss the most is the way that we smile and cry together like we are one soul. My older brother, Hunter, is around 6'2, he has straight light brown hair swept to the side, and hazel eyes, and is a football and basketball player, but currently he just couldn't care less when it comes to his hobbies, he doesn't enjoy doing anything at the moment honestly. Hunter inspires me a lot, he always pushes me forward to reach my goal and always aims to push me even further so that I could achieve more than just my goal, he consistently calms me when I'm feeling angry and never fails to make me smile, we are very close to each other, he is such a great brother and I am so blessed to have him. As for my mother, she is very bright and is like the superwoman of the family, she works herself way too hard in taking care of the house as well as the both of us. As for my dad, he is the one that always tries to strengthen our family bond, and the one who pays for everything, you can just say he's very kind and cares about others, we are all happy that he's very excited for his new job.
It has been a few days since we have reached here and I'm getting really worried about hunter, he refuses to go out and have fun, he does not even want to talk to anyone, I feel like his world is turning way too dark.
"Hunter, Hunter what's wrong?" I said quietly
"Nothing Mere, nothing! just leave me alone"
"No I'm not leaving your room until you tell me what's going on. Look, I know I'm only your younger sister and you might think that I don't understand the things that happen but you are only one year older than me so it doesn't make that much of a difference. I want you to know that you inspire me and help me with all the trouble whenever I was distressed, please, we merely have each other and I'm here for you"
"I just don't want to drag you down the deep sea with me" he said looking at the ground
"If I don't go down with you then who will? You brought yourself down the sea when I was already drowning, I am your only sister, please tell me, I promise I'll try to help"
"Well... Since we moved to California, I got so many anonymous texts saying that the reason I left the school was that I didn't want to be with my friends anymore because they never got into any of the school teams and that I was captain of the team and how they were not enough for a guy like me and the reason why I'm being their friend is so that I could use them in many different things and that's totally false, and it hurts the most that my friends have been making a fool out of me  in front of the whole school with all the tweets that they have continued to write about , I feel hopeless having no friends at all, one of my friends told everyone that I'm a failure in maths  and I'm so embarrassed"
"Hey, listen. If you still call them friends, you shouldn't, actually you shouldn't have called them your friends in the beginning, who actually does that to his best friend. And it is so obvious that they are completely jealous. You are way more successful in sports, and also, I'm pretty sure that the person who started the rumor either has no friends or is dying to be captain, and your not a failure at maths, you just need to keep up with doing your homework and you will be the A* student that everyone wants to be, trust me I believe in you, and as long as you know you did nothing wrong then you don't have to worry"
"Hey, thanks for coming in and helping me out, I really needed that, and sorry for my behavior earlier, I was so angry, you are really the best sister I could ever ask for, thanks" hunter said with a crooked smile on his face
"I will always be there for you" I said smiling back as I left his room
