A Sister Love (oneshot)

A Sister Love

Having an older sister is much better than having a little sister, for me. But not until this past few days. I notice something about my older sister, she's always looking at my boyfriend.

I don't know why but I feel strange because everytime I caught her staring at my boyfriend, she will stare at me too like saying something I don't understand.

One day, while waiting for my boyfriend to come in our house, I confront her in a way like not being rude to her.

"Ate did you have a problem with my boyfriend?" I asked her while she's busy washing the dishes that we used earlier in breakfast.

"No."

"Then why are you staring at him strangely everytime he's here? Like, you want to kill him?" I asked her desperately.

I hope she will answer me honestly this time because I don't know what to do anymore, if she won't tell me. Everytime I asked her about this she will answer me lies and I don't know what's her point for not telling me the truth.

I saw something in her eyes and I'm afraid if it is the real reason for acting her wierd this past few days.

"Liz, you need to know something about your boyfriend." my heart beats fast because of what she said.

"My boyfriend? Why? What's with Jared?" I asked her confusedly

"He's not healthy for you. He's not what you think he is." I saw tears in his eyes but she's trying to hide it from me.

That is the sign that my sister is not in a good state because I never see her crying in a simple problem.

I know my sister was bearing something hard and bigger problem because she can't even tell me and it got me more irritated because its about Jared.

What's with my boyfriend? Why she can't tell me directly?

"What do you mean Ate?"

"He's no good for you---" she did not finish her words because Jared cut her. I saw fears in here eyes.

"How can you say that?" Jared asked her

Ate did not answer his question because she ran away to her room. But before she finally turn her back I saw her tears falling. My ate is crying.

"Don't mind your sister. And forget everything what she said about me, hm?"

I was looking at him while he's saying those words to me. Pigil na pigil siyang hindi magalit habang sinasabi niya iyon. And I don't know why. Bakit siya nagpipigil? May dapat ba siyang ikagalit?

"Okay." I answered him even though my mind was surrounded by those questions.

Time flies by, its already 1 week had past since I confronted my sister at simula din ng araw na iyon lagi nalang nagkukulong ang kapatid ko.

Hindi na kami magkasabay kung kumain lagi akong nauuna. Even during breakfast, pagdating ko sa kusina may nakahanda ng breakfast pero wala ang ate.

At first kinukulit ko siya na sabay na kaming kumain pero lagi niya akong tinatanggihan kaya hindi ko na rin siya pinilit.

Noon, araw-araw si Jared pumupunta dito sa bahay, minsan lumalabas kami magda-date at kung ano-ano pang ginagawa ng magjowa. Pero hindi ko siya hinayaan na lumampas sa halik ang ginagawa niya.

Not until this past few days, minsan nalang siyang pumupunta dito at kung pupunta man sandali lang at mangungumusta sa amin at kung meron ba daw sinabi si ate sa akin.
