A Sister's Love

By Melissa Saldhana

To my little sister who has grown up so quickly, I still remember how your tiny self tried to fight me when I annoyed you. How you used to save chocolates for us to have it together later. Unlike other siblings, you never fought with me over why you didn't get your favourite from the two. Always cheering me up when I'm all sad. You've been this constant ray of sunshine in my life that never loses it's shine.

I still don't understand how you say just the right thing when needed or sometimes know exactly what I'm thinking about. The only one who's always ready to listen to my ramblings or crazy talks and join in on my weirdness. 'Thank you' won't suffice for the times you've simply listened when I needed it or for when you didn't like others, sugarcoat things and just said the truth. Until the end, you're my best friend.
