My sister Tina and I are very different. I'm a just simple minded girl, at least in her eyes, while she is literally the symbol of perfection. When I was young I wanted to be like her. If she wore her hair in a new style one day, 1 would do the same with mine the following day. I always tried to follow her and her friends around and begged to be included, but her life didn't really have much space for a bothersome two year younger sister. Over time. My admiration for her had turned into indifference. Living in the same apartment as strangers. We barely spoke to each other.
I even felt relieved in secret when she informed me this year that she would be spending eight months studying abroad. I assumed I'd use her video player and wear the dresses she left behind. That was the only way 1 thought her leaving would affect me.
I sat in my room that first evening after she departed and tried to concentrate on my homework. However. I couldn't get rid of the feeling that something was wrong, or something was missing. I looked around the apartment and everything was the same. But it was so silent that I could hear my own breathing. 1 went to Tina's room. Both her video player and her talk on the phone with her friends were absent. When 1 sat down on her bed. I became sharply aware of how different my life was without her. Even though we didn't always talk. Just having her there made me feel secure.
Sitting there. I looked back at the wasted years and regretted trying to live my own life and overlooking hers. I felt particularly bad because I had not even given her a hug before she boarded her plane, and that made my heart ache.
