I have a brother, and he is too hot, too handsome, and has everything he wants in his life. I sometimes feel jealous of him because everything in his life is so perfect. But he is my brother, so I shouldn’t be jealous of him, right? And I’m not sure if I have any other feelings for him.

“ What are you doing here?” My brother, Kevin, asked me, and that’s when I realized I was standing by his room door staring at him and didn’t know for how long.

“ Nothing. I think.... I was here to talk to you about something... but now I forget.” I said as I tried to remember why I was there and just how long I had been staring at him.

Kevin grabbed me by my shoulders and pushed me against the door. “ Aren’t you forgetting so many things recently?” He said, leaning his face close to mine, and then smiled.

I gently placed my hands on his chest before pushing him away. He was always like this. He didn’t think that his actions could convey other kinds of thoughts to the person in front of him.

I was still standing there, and only then did I hear, “What are you two doing there?”

I looked over where the voice came from and saw my mom staring at us. She was looking angry. I was sure she saw Kevin and me close again.

My mom told Kevin many times that I’m not a kid anymore, but Kevin never stopped teasing me. I was his younger sister, but sometimes he behaved as if he was my younger brother.

Kevin wrapped his arm around my shoulder and, ignoring my mom, he walked me toward the dining table where Dad was sitting. My dad is also like Kevin, cute and funny, but Kevin only looks cute but isn’t cute at all, though he is funny at times.

Mom also came to the dining table and sat down on the chair. She was still glaring at Kevin, but then Dad patted her shoulder and told her to eat instead of getting angry at Kevin. I wasn’t sure why Mom acted this way, but it could be because Kevin was more friendly than any brother would be with their sister. Maybe, yes, that was the reason.

After finishing our meal, Kevin and I came out of the house. I sat down inside his car and we drove outside the house. He was a coach in the gym, and I was only a first-year college student. Although his gym is on the other side of the college, he still came to drop me off at the college. And this was one of those things I admired about him. Another thing I admired about him was his physique. Although I hadn’t seen him shirtless for a long time now, I knew he had a great body. And sometimes I just wanted to hug him tightly and fall asleep in his arms like a baby. But I was afraid that mom would be angry.

“ We have arrived.” Kevin said, and I snapped out of my thoughts. I opened the car door and immediately got out of the car. I thanked him and was going to go away, but he stopped me.

“ You are going to go just like that?” he asked, and I was confused by his words.

I brought my face near the car window and asked him what he meant by that.

He rolled up the window and said  “ nothing.” Before driving the car away. 

I patted my feet on the road angrily. Sometimes it was really hard to understand what he really wanted.

Did you like it? Or nah. Whatever you think, let me know. I don't mind any kind of criticism because I am a big critic of my own work. So let's criticise together 🤝
