She is annoying. She pesters me all the time. She comes up with all these stupid ideas and she thinks they are great. She loves to play pretend. She seems to think I'm here age. She reminds me of Leslie. Worst of all, I love her.
I'm the best of the best but she's always challenging everything I say. Leslie did that all the time. She tells me when she thinks I'm being stupid. She tries to insert herself in with my friends and I. She's always bugging me to teach her how to do the things I can do. She will never take no for an answer. Worst of all I love her.
She whines when she can't do something the right way. She doesn't shut up about it. "Why can you do this and I can't," she whines. I point out that I'm older then her and that she'll be able to do what I can do later on. She always stomps her feet. It's so annoying. Worst of all I love her.
She asks the same question over and over and over again. She is always taking up time that I need from mom because she needs to tie her stupid shoes or she had a nightmare. I couldn't be with Leslie the day she died because I had to baby sit her. If I had been there I could have saved Leslie. Now she's not with me anymore. I'll never see her again. Worst of all I love her.
She thinks our world is just like my world. She thinks it's a place where everyone is accepted and received with open arms. She would forgive the devil if he apologized she's so damn innocent and so annoying about that too. For my birthday she got me a notebook with her name in it. Leslie's name was in it too. It's so hard to be patient with her sometimes. Worst of all, I love her.
She snores in her sleep and the walls are so thin I can hear it in my room. She takes way too long in the bathroom. She always expects me to solve every little problem she has like I have nothing better to do. She replaced me as the youngest in the family. She is the most annoying little sister there is. She's not ever aware of when to shut up. Worst of all I love her.
"Jess," Maybella said
I can't help but smiling.
"Coming Maybella," I said
"I have your gift for your birthday," Maybella said, "And I think you'll like this one."
It's probably going to be something stupid. But whatever. The important thing is I LOVE HER.
