We used to have fun together, truly having fun that it annoyed our parents
In the end, we were punished
'Sleep in the kitchen tonight!'

I was still small that time, to be in the kitchen with lights off
That was sure a scary thought
So he held me near, opened the refrigerator
So that we at least have a source of light, to lessen my fear

That was years, years ago

We grew up, & the distant between us was visible as time passing by
I remembered myself not approving his actions
& getting angry with him for ignoring us for quite some time

Alas, he's home again!

His love for all of us was obvious enough for me to see
He would do just anything in his might to help us
To lessen our burden or troubles
Would go to any extent just to make sure that we are safe & sound

But somehow in the end, all of that troubled me
As I could see that we are his top priority

I remembered when I was still in university
& he already in age when he should get married
But he never voice it out
That it makes me believe that he put on hold most of the things for himself
Just to take care all of us

Later when I entered working life
It stressed me out that I am still unable to have a stable income
As I want to share his responsibilty
& somehow letting him free slowly

At present, though I am yet to have a stable job
I am happy for him
That he finally said his one small wish
To start a family with his lady
I am truly relieved upon hearing the news

So, even though you'll be carrying another responsibility
I know that you will still concern & care for us

Worry not, this lil sis of yours will slowly grow up
& help to ease your burden bit by bit

I know that I am not an obedient or that much use of a sister to you
& the fact that I like to nag, weak, talkative, somehow overly-dependent, & all others of not-so-good traits
I am trying my hardest, pushing myself to no limit
For the sake of our family

Here, I want you to know of how much I love you
& that I care, & that your happiness is important to all of us too

So, I am praying for your eternal happiness with your future wife
(our future sister-in-law)
May you two are always under His blessing
Love You for YOU!
my first Big Bro
