A Paper Rose

by MattieTaylor

I didn't know what my brother did during the night. Until his responsibility was thrust upon me at the worst possible time, and with it, a whole new society that viewed me as their sheep.

PROLOGUE

I met him when I was five years old.

Or so my brother tells me.

It was a vague memory for me and I can tell by his recollection that it was vague for him too, although he does retain some sort to jog my own memory.

It was at his birthday party set up at home and a bunch of his friends had arrived. He remembers there were many colours mainly from the decoration. But that was it. That was the blur of the whole day.

Only until the evening when two men came knocking on our door and got in. One, I remember, was tall, pale, with brown short hair and a dark suit, came right up to my brother, who smiled and waved, and patted him on the head before he knelt to his level and whispered something to him. He then sat in my father's chair. I was staring at him all this time. I had never seen a man so tall in my life so I presume at that age I would have been quite scared.

His gaze then turned to me and he smiled. It was one of those smiles that was contagious and I couldn't help it, I smiled back.

The other man, was younger, wore glasses and seemed out of place. He talked to our parents. My brother and I don't really remember their reaction, but my bet was that they both didn't approve in these strangers coming up unannounced. It was that, and many other things.

But I'm glad they did come. I'm glad they were allowed in. I'm glad I met them. And I'm glad that my brother decided on his future which is now my future.
