"Falling in love with your own sister is just the worst." At least, that's what I thought. But then again, is it really that strange to fall in love with your biological sister? The first person to hug me was my sister; the first person I remembered was my sister; the first person to hold my hand was my sister; the first person to teach me how to walk was my sister; the first person to encourage me was my sister; the first person to give me a piggyback ride was my sister; the first person to wipe away my tears was my sister. So it's only natural that I fell for her, right? "Sis, will I become a burden to you?" "Silly girl, you're the little angel Mom and Dad left for me. How could you ever be a burden? I'll always be by your side. Just make sure you grow up healthy and happy, okay?" She always takes everything upon herself. Seeing how exhausted she gets, I want to do something for her, but she just smiles, shakes her head, and gently pats my head, telling me it's okay. My sister gives me so much love—so much that I feel like having her is enough for my entire world. She attends my parent-teacher conferences, tutors me with my homework, gently wraps me in her arms whenever I have a nightmare, and unravels every confusion I face. Sis... my dearest sister. In my world, you play the roles of parent, friend, and teacher all at once. So how could I possibly not love you, Sis? Ever since our parents passed away, she shouldered the heavy burden of taking care of me, juggling school and part-time jobs while looking after me. Yet, no matter how worn out her eyes were, they would sparkle whenever they landed on me. Her gentle smile, her furrowed brow, her worried expression, the blush spreading to her ears whenever she's teased—they're all because of me. She's even cute when she's drunk, clinging to me and acting all spoiled. I really have no defense against you, Sis. I love the side of you that turns childish from time to time, too. I really, truly have no way of not loving you. So, Sis, let's stay entangled with each other for a lifetime, okay? "I really am an unqualified sister, aren't I? In the beginning, all I wanted was to protect you, so why did things turn out like this? Whenever I think about you meeting a partner of your own someday, my heart feels like it's being scratched at by tiny claws. If only I weren't your sister, maybe we could... No, what kind of nonsense am I saying? As long as you're happy, nothing else matters. Little sis... my dearest little sister, sweet dreams."

My dearest little sister, seeing you grow up healthy and safe is all I could ever ask for.
