Chapter-10- Sister reunion

"Hello?!"

"Hi Faith, it's me Cooper."

"Oh Coop, watsupp."

I can see him eyes roll on the other side.

"Anyways, so you're sister is coming back home to you today. Could you handle her now?"

My sister, I still have her, it's me and her. My 10 year old sister who was lost when my parents passed.

I sigh.

"Yeah I can. Will she accept me as a sister?"

"Of course princess, she is curious to meet you."

"Ok, bye."

"Bye."

_______________

Knoch knock!

"Coming up."

I open the door to see Hazel, my sister.

She immediately hugs me.

"Are you gonna be my sister." She says shyly.

"Yes, the best sister anyone can have."
"Come on let's head inside, don't you wanna see your room?"

"Sure."

I drag her upstairs, to a spare room which just needs a little bit of dusting, and arrangement.

" Woah, it's huge and dirty." We both chuckle.

"Ok so tomorrow we can go shopping for your room, and then arrange it."

"K , can't wait to go to school."

"Ok bye Haz, see you tomorrow." I plant a kiss on her forhead before leaving.

"Goodnight, sister." She says as she closes her room door.

It's been 10 years , since I saw her. The last time was in a baby cot , in the hospital, with mom. She had jaundice, so she was admitted in the hospital  for 5 days after delivery. That's when my parents were murdered. And she was taken by Cooper , so that he can take care of her. When I was capable and big enough , Cooper promised he will return Hazel back.

I take out a photoframe from my drawer and go to Hazel's room.

When I peek from the open door, I see her on her bed, playing with here Barbie doll, and humming a poem.

I sigh and enter the room.

"What happened sis?" She asks with a innocent look on her face.

I go and sit on the bed with her, and hold her hands, I show her the frame.

"This was mom and dad. They were a beautiful couple."

She stares at the picture, and touches it with her hand.

"I love you, mom and dad, rest peacefully in heaven, we will meet you there."

I look at her in aw and take the frame and place it on the table. I grab her doll.
"So who's this."

She looks happily at me with her eyes sparkling, she got dad's green eyes. While I got moms blue ones.

"She's Blare."

I wake up early in the morning tomorrow and get ready for a jog. I slowly peak in Hazel's room. She is sitting on her bed rubbing her eyes due to the sunlight from the window.

I go and pull the curtains down.

"Where are you going?"

" I am going for a jog, wanna come."
