I dont have a sister. I have two great brothers who I love with all my heart, but I always wished I had a sister. And I kind of did.
My aunt has a daughter, Nabil. She is turning 17 this year, just like my little brother. We all were raised together, and I cant help but to see her as my sister.
She might not be the most brilliant girl in the world, but she is so pretty, and outgoing.
While growing up, I always planned on having a great career that would allow me to take care of her, to give her every tool she might need to have a great life.
But a year ago, she broke my heart like only she could do it: she met this guy and moved in with him. Did i mention she was 15?
I was more heart broken than upset, that is the thing I used to warn her about. Since we lived in a small town, the most common thing was for girls (15-16year old) to get married and pregnant because they couldnt seek any other future. I must have told her a million times that she could have the future she wanteed, but she chose to play to be a wife. She swore to me, that she would at least finish high school before she got pregnant.
Of course that did not happen. She is having a baby next month.
She could not be happier, or that is what Ive heard since I hadnt seen her in more than 6 months. Its too hard for me.
This is what she wanted, I am sure of that now. I guess that what has me mad it that she not only will live a hopeless life ( I do wish she is happy though), but she broke my dreams of her having so much more, and she simply stopped being my little sister.
My aunt, my grandma, my mother, they are now thrilled about the baby, and Nabil says I am gonna be his aunt (its a boy).
I just hope I grow love for the kid, and that my anger dissapears in thin air.
