My brother saved the world.
Its as simple as that.
He had superpowers....but did he tell me?
Of course he didn't.
I didn't find out until I saw him on the news.
Ever sense his heroic deed...I gotta be honest, things began to suck for me.
Mom and Dad hardly ever talked to me anymore. They were always too busy raving about their perfect in-human child, Derek.
Suddenly, all my friends wouldn't talk to me; but if they did, it would go something like this.
"Hey, Jaycey! Hows your brother?!"
"Fine," I'd reply, "Hey, wanna go see a movie tonight?"
"Depends, will your BROTHER be there?"
***
And so forth.
You'd think my brother being a super hero and everything, would be all caring and understanding, but he wasn't.
He became a big jerk.
I mean, we used to get along, but now....if we spoke, we would end up shouting, then he could use his super strength and send me through a wall.
I wanted to have superpowers too.
Poor me.
This story isn't about my heroic brother, this story's about dealing with a super hero AS a brother.
This story's about me.
