On my 20 min walk from the stop closest to my house on bus 82 in the autumn cold with only a t-shirt sweater and backpack I go home and ask my brother for one simple thing.
"Long, will you give me a hug?"
He looks at me with an awkward smile and goes "Why?" with a hint of a small chuckle.
"Because I'm cold." I smile back at him and try to give him puppy eyes.
"No. I'm warm and I dont want to be cold" he says this while turning on his PSP.
"But, Im cold and youll heat up again."
"Human insulation doesnt heat up that fast." and he shakes his head.
I pout "Hmph. A nice brother would hug me."
"Since when have you known me to be that nice?"
"You were nice to me when I was little"
"Yeah when you were little"
I gape at him "What so you wont be as nice to me now that Im older?"
With no hesitation "Pretty much. Now shush my son is trying to sleep"
and then Kevin lightly whines in his sleep as to say "Yeah I am now shut up"
I feel like I could cry. Brothers are so mean sometimes
