Seeing that my brother didn't care about me, Henry hesitated to speak anymore. In the end, he just patted my brother’s shoulder and advised, "After many years have passed, you still can't let go? She is the only relative your parents have left for you."
"She lied and killed my mother. I can't get over it forever. For me, she doesn't deserve to be my relative, also my only biological sister is Rochelle."
My brother, who had always been calm and collected, had a ferocious look on his face and lost control of his emotions when he mentioned what happened that year.
“Captain, do you know what excessive demands she made of me yesterday? She actually wanted me to celebrate her birthday on the anniversary of our mother's death. She is heartless and delusional that I am going to say happy birthday to her. Oh anyway, today is Rochelle's birthday, so I should go back early, Captain."
I burst into tears. I hadn’t had a birthday in as many years as my mom had been dead.
Fine, I knew I didn't deserve it. But, brother, I really didn't mean to disgust you yesterday. I was just giving you a hint, hoping you would listen and that I would actually hear you say, “Happy Birthday” before I died.
