He was older by 3 hours. Even though they were the same age, Jesus would always see Mariana as his little sister...
Mariana was sat on her bench at lunch, as usual her large group of friends surrounded her.
Jesus watched his sister, amazed so many people could find her interesting.
Sure she was his sister and he loved her to pieces, but she couldn't be that fascinating could she?
He was about to look away when he caught sight of a new face sat beside Mariana. A male face.
With a frown, Jesus began walking over towards them.
"And then she said, it was only for one night!" Mariana laughed, setting off giggles from all round the bench.
The girl beside Mariana nudged her, when she caught sight of Jesus.
"I'll be right back" the girl sighed getting to her feet to meet him.
"What do you want?" she demanded, holding up her hands to stop him from going any closer to the group.
"Just saying hi" he began casually "Who's your new friend?" he asked nodding at the boy in the background.
"His name is Lee, and he's in my English class"
Jesus nodded "Doesn't he have any friends?"
Mariana raised her eyebrows "I don't see how it's anything to do with you"
"Trying to look out for my sister" Jesus shrugged "That a crime?"
"Your sister is fine, now go back to your dorky friends and quit cramping my style"
Reluctantly, Jesus left her to it. But it's safe to say he kept a close eye on her for the rest of the week.
