Even though this pandemic has been an extremely difficult experience, I have been trying to find some positivity within the darkness.
During the school year, I never got to spend time with my younger sister. I was always so busy, and when I wasn’t busy, I was exhausted and burnt out. I remember my sister would always open my door and come sit on my bed and I would say, “I need some alone time, please.” And she would respond, “You always need alone time!”
I didn’t pay enough attention to her and I felt (and still feel) really badly about it. However, lately, I have been spending much more time with her, because I just have more time in general.
I have realized what an amazing person she is and I can’t believe that this funny, loving person was always in front of my eyes. I am beyond grateful to be able to have her as my sister. We have spent these last couple of weeks just laughing together, and spending time with her brings a smile to my face.
She and I have been playing with our dog in the backyard for the past couple of weeks and yesterday, while we were in the backyard, my sister asked me:
“Do you want to dance?”
“In the backyard?!”
“Yeah!”
Within a few seconds, I was full-fledged dancing and laughing like crazy. It was the most fun I have had over the past couple of weeks. Whenever I see her in her room or at dinner, I just smile. I am so lucky to be living with such a crazy, silly, and happy sister.
I can say that after spending a lot of time with her, my sister is definitely, without a doubt, my best friend.
