Perhaps this is the first post I did not write about my business. Though, in some way, it’s my business since I regarded that girl my sister.
A sister… sounds so nice of me huh? That’s actually what I wanted, too. I have always wanted to have a younger sister to take care of since 9th grade. But you can’t get anything you want, can you? So I grabbed the chance immediately when I happened to know her unfortunate background. That’s a natural consequence for any decent man. I could not think of anything first but asking her to be my sister. Maybe I was looking for some “official title” to freely express my care later.
Then she, in the most sensitive time, developed a strong emotion towards me. An unfortunate heart looking for a sorrowful soul. Perfect fit. I was awkward. Though, she realized soon enough that she must not go any step further, and kindly retreat, which then resulted in a snap-out-from-the-sun-sick. I was glad you and she finally became good friends after those “wars” below the surface.
Time passed by, quicker than I could notice.
Unfortunate again for her in love when her pursuit of happiness since the tragic accident was not as smooth as any other ordinary girl. More than ever, she sunk herself deep down to the most negative and pitiful twist of sadness. Without any proper lead from an adult, she easily fell into that emotional trap and I saw it clearly in front of my eyes. And I let you take care of that, as a good sister of her. With such wounded heart… how could she stop looking for happiness, even the slightest, the smallest one?
Then a helping hand, an over-generous sicked heart, the hand, the heart in their boring time of the old relationship, were given to her in her darkest time. And que sera, sera. They fell into each other undoubtedly, with the same pathetic sympathy for each other’s same illness.
In the position of a brother looking after his sister, I have both delight and worries. I was glad that at least she was happy, although that happiness might not last for long, who knows. But better than nothing. I was worried because I did not know who the hell was that guy and his friends even worried me more. But worried for what? I could not do anything anyway.
As the current boyfriend of you, I dislike the relationship. One cannot remarkably change over a short time and since you had a terribly bad experience with that guy, he was absolutely another misfortune for such a weak girl like Y. A sugar-coated bitterness, who knows what’s gonna happen next?? That’s definitely not a kind of guy who I can trust my precious with.
Though, as you said, what else can we do but waiting to catch her when she fall? All in all, that relationship should not be a long term relationship as it will drain her health, mind and mental stability. It could have certain short-term effect of relieving and happiness-creating but I doubt the same thing could happen in a half-year time
