My Brother...

Day 27: Talk about your siblings.

I only have a brother, his name is Kristian. We've been living together for seven years now. I actually can't imagine life without him. He's been there for me ever since. He stood up for me when situation called for it. He also took the role of being my father. We had lots of fights growing up, like every normal siblings do. But when he went away to go to college that's the time I realized how lucky I was to have a brother like him. So when we were finally at the same place at the same time again, we made the most out of it. And so we're stuck with each other now. We're like joined at the hip. We tend to have the same set of friends. Mostly because he joins  me and my friends and I join him and his friends too. 

Four years back we had a disagreement. We didn't live together for half a year. It was one of the toughest moments of my life. He's the person that I turn to every time I'm having problems, but he's also the person that I was having problems with. Good thing we were able to patch things up. And we made a pact that we will never let any misunderstanding and disagreement come between us anymore.

But just early last year (2013), we had another disagreement, and this time it was because of the choice that I made. He was mad at me, I was mad at him for not letting me be happy. I was lovesick back then and it wasn't healthy at all. Instead of staying mad at me, he decided to be the bigger person and just let me be. Good thing realization hit me and one day I woke up and realized that my brother was right all along. After that incident we never talk about it and just move on with our lives.
