Sibling bond. (In kind words, My sister is back home)

‘She’s sleeping, its the best time for me to jot down some points for a blog, nevertheless it might take me ages to publish it’. Raise your hands if you have siblings and they were stuck outside, but now due to ease in lockdown they’re back to haunt your path, breach your privacy and make you run errands for them. Welcome to Nightmare on siblings avenue. No offence but siblings are like what you aren’t. No two siblings can be exact replica of one another. Kind of takes the fun out of the age old domestic drama. Many of you might not relate but even if a lone soul finds this relatable, I would consider this article worthwhile. Anyways, it’s just a fun piece something I thought I owed to this bond.
Undoubtedly you can hardly have your way since you just lost your right to be the single child back home. I wake up try and finish all I could up until she wakes up. Because after that, it isn't happening kids. All I could think of is what she might like, what is there she might frown upon, what if the food isn’t to her liking and the day might just get worse. Things I might have to redo since she has a perfectionist mindset.  It's like a bully who wants to get bullied.
Some photographic assistance for the reader. It was taken when I was one


I remember the times we used to play doctor doctor and she pierced an actual needle through my pinky finger just to make things real and slowly I saw blood oozing out. Excuse me the red matter is out again and the impulsive decision my brain takes up is cry your lungs out kid, it's a bad thing- the red guy is here and you’re gonna die of blood loss.
Another instance/s is when she pushed me down the stairs, pulled my hair when all I could say was broken words and the list continues. But all those instances are followed by me going over to her and we bond again within minutes. Something my mother always found astounding. That’s how siblings are we just can’t stay apart. ( too cheesy)
Yes I am the pushover kid here. The younger sibling who can never be the rebel kind since one of that specie is already in existence in this household.
But on the brighter side- I get ice creams when I least expect them because yeah rebellion gets her things and we have the policy of getting stuff for both the kids and come on we are talking about an innocent younger sibling here.You name it and I have it without even being rebellious-Ice cream, good food, T.V channel, dresses etc. Nevertheless my reputation of being the good kid remains intact ( sly grin).
When she arrives she haunts my path and when she isn't here I enjoy my solitary confinement. But it too takes its toll on me. I like talking to her late night. I like being the weirdest self I can be and she knows the insanity I harbour inside me. She makes me binge Netflix otherwise my life is a boring mess, repetitive and devoid of fun. She teaches me makeup though I still am a failure, she supports my weird career decisions, she scares away people who bother me on the contrary she hits me when she feels like, she tries to choke me with a pillow(just for fun) and I can’t stop laughing. Yes we are weird kids with a love hate relationship but make her cry and you shall face my wrath (just sibling things).
In short having a sibling is like a necessary evil, you can't get away from them so just play along. And eventually you might get used to it and grow a fondness. Just kidding- you get to be their saviour since you're the calm one and that calls for experience my friend and yes stealing their things is always fun. But my elder sibling has been the trailblazer and I owe her that.
Comment down everyone who have siblings and the bond you share. It will be a fun conversation. Oh she’s here I am gonna take my leave.

P.S - It took me a month and a half to publish this without her knowledge 
P.P.S - I am just a lazy kid as well.
