How sad my life would have been without my sisters.


Unlike most of the eldest siblings I've met, I did not ask for a younger sister/brother. I want my Daddy and Mom's attention all for myself. My 3 year old brain probably thought that I did not need any since I have two older cousins next door to play with. But whenever it was time to go home, my heart felt alone cause I'll be sleeping by myself. 3 years old pa lang dumadrama princess na? Haha.

Unfortunately (jokes), out of my parents love for each other Keiko came. I can still remember how cute she was. She was so adorable that I can't contain my gigil-na-gigil self. So, I bit her mittens. :) And yes with her tiny fingers inside. DISCLAIMER: I did not have any idea and it was unintentional. Her scream and cry filled the room, then the entire house. That was when I realized, I'm the typical evil ate that will bully her little sister. As expected, that happened.

After four more years when Kith was born, I promised myself that I will be a better ate for the next one.  I became Mom's first line of help to make my baby sister's milk, to watch her while she's sleeping as we watch TV, and be her personal stylist. I gave up my seat and passed the crown to her.

As the three of us grew together, we squeezed out almost all the best potentials and worst attitudes of one another. It is still crystal clear to me how our 3-way imagination went broader. There was this one summer afternoon, while all of  Q.C.'s population were on the edge of the Philippine peninsula, we had a pictorial inside our self-made resort wearing our beach outfits. Keiko even edited some of them and posted them online pretending that we were in Puerto Galera. Those were the days that I was very thankful to have them with me. We can magically turn any boring day to a fun-filled holiday.

I have tons of girlfriends but my relationship with my sisters is incomparable. I know that despite our misunderstandings they whole-heartedly accept and love me for who I really am. Having 2 beautiful sisterettes is not just about sharing clothes, shopping, secrets and stuff, it is a God-given friendship of a lifetime that I will always and forever be grateful for.
