My sis (no. 5) turns 48 today! I am feeling rather old myself, being 7 years younger from her age and I think time really waits for no man.
She is one of the closest sister whom stays close to my home and we often share the same sentiments.
Looks, ( not quite the size! ) I am waaaayyyy bigger than her! People (sometimes) mistaken me as the older one. Duh...
Ah well, anyway, remembering our childhood days, being the youngest in the family, I was such a spoil brat ( not literally) that made her annoyed. I got away with a lot of things while she had to give in...poor her...
During those days, when she was in college, I was still in primary school and was left playing alone most of the time. I had no choice and creating attention was my biggest achievement.
I remember the time when I sneaked through her school bag and found her diary. Never really bothered to read what she wrote (her English is superb ) and me being a minor was clueless of what was written.

I flipped through her friends list and actually the diary was also a part of her autograph book that many of her peers signed and wrote remarks about being her friend. There was this particular name that caught my eye ( a Chinese boy) and he wrote a lovely poem about love and how he wished to be her life-partner!

I looked closely at his signature and something really stroke me to do something mischievious to her. I took out a piece of paper, practiced and try copying the boy's signature, until, it reached the exact one!

I made a love letter, addressing to my sister and signing off with the boy's signature and put it back in her bag. I just didn't know why I felt so good after I did that in order to make her angry ( if ever she finds out)
That particular night, I didn't get a good night sleep as I felt guilty about what I did.

Early morning, the usual routine when she got to use the bathroom first as my mom made the rule to give her the priority as she needed to travel much farther to her college.

I sat down felt glum and guilty and thinking how should I confess to her. She came out of the bathroom and ordered me to hurry along.
Finally I managed to tell her while rushing; "did you see the letter in your bag..>?"

"huh? you!!!???...idiot! get off now!!!!.." that was just her replied I heard...

She must have known from the start that I wrote that letter, but it was a matter of waiting for me to confess and tell the truth and making sure I tasted my own medicine...

She is a firm but caring and lovable person whom I think it's hard for me to find another sister like her.(even though I have another 3 others, they have all different characters) But let me tell you, she is the best contender I ever have!

Love you Kak Bah!!!
