It was dark and cold
The only shade of light came from the street lights fuming the area
Jasente was walking by himself with a jacket on
His mind was all over the place
Completely distraught and confused
'
Jasente Evans
I don't know anymore....
'
Mia Evans
BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
'
Jasente turned to see Mia crying uncontrollably and shaking with her fist ready
'
Jasente Evans
What do you want...?
'
Mia Evans
FOR YOU TO STOP ACTING LIKE THIS!
'
Jasente Evans
Acting like what?
'
Mia Evans
LIKE A DIFFERENT PERSON!
I know that you have trust issues
I get that I really do
But why choose to ignore me or listen to me
I have no reason to lie
HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN THAT I WAS THERE FOR YOU FROM THE BEGINNING!!??!
WHEN DAD LEFT WE PLAYED EVERY DAY EVEN WHEN YOU DIDN'T WANT TO
WHEN WE WENT TO SCHOOL I PROTECTED YOU AS MUCH AS I COULD
I LOOKED OVER YOU EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE BORN FIRST
YOUR MY BIG BROTHER AND I WANT NOTHING TO HAPPEN TO YOU
SO WHY ARE YOU TREATING ME AND YOUR LITTLE SISTER LIKE SHIT!?
'
Mia at this point could barely keep her emotions in check
The stress and anxiety from the past 2 months reached an all-time high
'
Jasente Evans
I'm sorry
Everything went black when I saw her hugging Dave
'
Mia Evans
But she didn't love him
She loved you
With everything she had
'
Jasente Evans
THAT CAN'T CHANGE WHAT I SAW!
'
Mia Evans
Brother
'
Jasente Evans
WHAT I SAW WAS WORSE THAN ANYTHING I COULD IMAGINE!
It reminded me of when dad left
The pain I felt after hearing that door slam
The way my heart shattered
The darkness that filled my mind
I had already felt it twice
Now it was three
I DONT WANT TO FEEL IT AGAIN
NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
'
Mia Evans
But I'm family
You can trust me
I'm your sister
'
Jasente Evans
I can't trust family when the family has broken my trust before
'
Jasente turned and started to walk away
As he walked away Mia saw something that made her freeze
Jasente looked just like their dad
Mia rushed and tackled Jasente onto the ground
She spun him on his back and hit him 1 after another
'
Mia Evans
YOU'RE NOT LEAVING ME!
I'M NOT LOSING ANOTHER FAMILY MEMBER!!!!!!!!
'
Jasente grabbed Mia's wrist
'
Jasente Evans
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!?!!??
'
Mia Evans
YOUR ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT FELT HURT AFTER DAD LEFT, BROTHER!!!!!
I WAS HURT TOO BUT I NEVER SHOWED IT
I HID THOSE FEELINGS TO LOOK AFTER YOU
TO MAKE YOU SMILE AND LAUGH
IM STILL HURTING
'
Jasente could feel the tears mix in with his blood as Mia cried on him
'
Jasente Evans
Mia
'
Mia Evans
BUT SEE THAT'S WHY FAMILY IS IMPORTANT
FAMILY IS ALWAYS THERE FOR YOU!
SO WHEN YOU SAY YOUR ALONE
YOU HAD TO DEAL WITH IT ON YOUR OWN
HOW YOU CANT TRUST ME
AND SHUN US
It hurts
'
Jasente Evans
I
'
Mia Evans
So I'm guessing Isa is your family now
You said she will protect you
So im no longer qualified
I can't look after my big brother like a little sister should huh?
All because of a misunderstanding
You're going to stop trusting me mom and Kiwi because of me
It's true
I am a terrible sister
'
Jasente Evans
N-NO YOUR NOT!
'
Mia Evans
YES I AM
BECAUSE OF ME YOUR DEPRESSED AGAIN
YOU KICKED EVERYONE OUT BECAUSE OF ME
I SHOULDNT HAVE GONE TO THAT STUPID PARTY
I SHOULD HAVE STAYED HOME WITH YOU AND HOLLY
I SHOULDNT HAVE TAKEN HER
EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK IF I WASNT SO FUCKING-
'
Jasente hugged Mia and rubbed her head just like how he used to as kids
'
Mia Evans
Big Brother.....
'
Jasente hugged harder
'
Jasente Evans
I'm sorry Mia
It's me who has been the bad big brother
You are the best little sister I could ask for
'
Mia cried hard as she held tighter
'
Mia Evans
I'm so glad your back big brother...
'
Jasente Evans
Me too
'
After some time Jasente went home and Jasentes Mom was waiting
'
Jasentes Mom
Son
'
Jasente Evans
Mom, I'm sorry
For everything I said
'
Jasentes Mom
Mhm
Jasente please remember that family will always have your back
I know that your dad left us and it hurt you
But that doesn't mean you can treat family the same
'
Jasente Evans
Yes mother
'
Jasentes Mom
Good
You're not off the hook though
Your grounded till summer
Since you cursed at me and treated your family terribly
So no track for you
'
Jasente Evans
Ok...
'
Jasentes Mom
Now go to Kiwi
You're not done yet
'
Jasente went into his room to find Kiwi sitting on his bed pouting
'
Jasente Evans
Kiwi
'
Kiwi Evans
NO GET OUT YOU HURT ME
'
Jasente Evans
I'm sorry Kiwi
I wasn't thinking straight
'
Kiwi Evans
NO, YOU BROKE OUR PROMISE
YOU BROKE OUR STRAWBERRY PROMISE
'
Jasente Evans
Then how about this
'
Jasente got on one knee and gave a fist bump
'
Jasente Evans
Let's make a family promise
'
Kiwi Evans
Family promise?
'
Jasente Evans
Mhm
To always look out for each other
'
Kiwi Evans
So you won't leave me anymore
'
Jasente Evans
Nope!
A family promise is unbreakable
'
Kiwi smiled and fist bumped back
'
Kiwi Evans
YAYYYY FAMILY PROMISE!!!!!!
'
She hugged him hard and Jasente hugged her back
After some time had passed he called Isa
'
Jasente Evans
Yeah so I won't be able to see you for awhile
and I have to quit track
'
Isa Rose
Its fine Jasente
I'm just happy your happy
Im also happy your talking to your sister again
So you won't need my protection anymore
'
Jasente Evans
Huh
'
Isa Rose
I protected you because you wouldn't let anyone else do it
Before the Hawks championship, you wouldn't talk to anyone and were so sad
So I told you that if anything bad happened talk to me
I will protect you
'
Jasente Evans
So we can't hang out anymore
'
Isa Rose
No, we are still friends
Friends with benefits but for now on just see me as a last resort
and spend time with your family more
'
Jasente Evans
Thank you Isa
For everything
'
Isa Rose
That's what friends are for Jasente
'
Isa put her phone down and laid on her bed
'
Isa Rose
Good for you
Jasente
'
Isa then looked at a picture of Jasente and her on the phone
She shed one tear as she turned off her phone
