CHAPTER 5: Sisterly Love

___________

'Because I have a sister, I will always have a friend.'

The next two days of college went like a blur. Studying new subjects, meeting new people, tolerating Dillan's childish behaviour and the usual. In these two days, I didn't come across him even once. Maybe because our classes are on the different floors because of the one year difference. And I wanted it that way; I don't even want to walk into Ryan eating a girl's face again.

I met Granny multiples of times from the first time we met. She's just like my real grandma. In fact, she is like the grandmother which every kid wishes their own to be like. The one who makes delicious food, who weaves them cute sweaters, whose face's as cute as a little baby with a heart-warming smile. Even when I am away from my family, I now feel a little better because of her, she reminds me of home, and she reminds me of family, love and care. And the best part, she have a great knowledge about the current music artists. Once I caught her listening to Justin Bieber and she said he's a cute child. Only if she knew his current condition. Poor granny!

And today's our Fresher's party organized by our seniors. Strange, because I thought they will be mean to us and treat us like the dust on the ground they walk on. It's kind of an unofficial celebration as the official ones are generally celebrated in the college itself. And it's off today so I have plenty of time to myself. And I've decided to waste it on my bed, laying here lazily, doing nothing at all except of watching funny YouTube videos. Heaven! SuperWoman and Ryan Higa, I'm coming for you!

But there's a thing haunting my head since last night, even when I was doing my Uni work. It was about Sage. I miss her like hell. We used to fight and quarrel all the time and call each other with stupid names which hold no meaning at all. I mean seriously, who knows what Bozohead means? Right, no one but that name is still funny to me. And I am dying to hear it from Sage, I want her to call me with that idiotic name. Gosh, I am acting like such a melodramatic TV actress. But when you miss someone, it's normal to get overdramatic and emotional.

All those times when I called a freak and insulted her, I feel bad about it. What I did was quite inappropriate right? She's my elder sister and I am supposed to respect her and obey her, but instead, I did the exact opposite. I love her with my whole heart and I care about her. She took such great care of me when I was diagnosed with asthma. I used to stay quiet and everyone talked about how I am going to be fine soon and all those serious conversations about my health, but she was the only one who talked silly things to me, just to lighten up my mood. When I had to quit school and go home-schooled because of asthma and the kids who used to make fun of my disease, calling me a freak, weirdo or the breathless girl, Sage taught me how to deal with them.

Am I such a bad sister? Am I really? Because I don't really remember anything that I did for Sage.

Sage is the best sister someone could ever have and I am definitely one who no one will ever want.

I grabbed my phone from the nightstand and checked the time. 7 am. I think she must be awake by now. I dialled her numbers, listening to the ringing caller tone.

"Hello?" she whispered sleepiness in her voice. Shoot, bad timing!

"Um,hey Sagy." I chirped awkwardly.

"Oh, hey Jade. I didn't check the caller ID before receiving the call." she spoke, shifting voices audible.

"Were you sleeping? Sorry to wake you up." I apologized, staring at the ceiling with millions of thoughts in my head.
