I don't own The Big Bang Theory or the characters. I only own Maya and Archie.


One day, Halley was home watching TV with Archie. The doorbell rings and Bernadette answers it. An energetic 5 year old Maya enters, followed by Leonard and Penny. Maya quickly runs to the living room and gets in front of Halley, with things on her hand.

"Hey, Maya, you're in front of the TV!" Archie yells. "Move!"

But Maya doesn't care. She continues to stare at Halley, waiting for her to say something.

"What's going on?" Bernadette asks

"I don't know" Penny answers. For the last few days, Maya has been waiting for the 4th of August. No one knew why and she didn't say why either.

"Maya? Want to watch TV with us?" Halley asks.

"I have something for you!" An excited Maya says. Off Halley's questioning look Maya continues. "You don't know what day today is do you?"

"It's August! I never know…" Halley answers. She only knows what day it is when is school time. On the holidays she never knew what the day was.

"Here!" Maya hands a teddy bear and a card to Halley.

"What's this?" Halley asks, looking down to the card.

"Open it!" By now, Halley was jumping from the excitement

Maya opens the card and starts reading:

Happy Sister's day! You're my favorite sister! Love you Halley!

"That's today?!" Halley asks. Maya enthusiastically nods. Halley quickly jumps off the couch and runs upstairs. The adults look at each other, not knowing what's happening. They hear Halley coming back to the room, with a card and candy.

Halley hands the card to Maya, who quickly reads it. It was the same card Maya wrote, the only difference being that it said Maya. The girls hugged each other and Maya takes the chocolate box and, without asking her parents if she could eat them, she opens the box and gives a chocolate to Halley.

Archie extends his arm, to receive a chocolate too, but the only thing he got was a yell from Halley.

"This is not for you!"

Archie looked sad so Maya hugged him

"Don't worry. Whenever it is Brother's Day, I'll give you a gift!" Maya said, smiling

"And when is that?" Archie asks, hoping it was soon

Maya thinks for a minute. She gets no where

"I have no idea! But we can try to find out!" The three smile at each other, while the adults look at each other wondering what was going on there.

Sister's Day was celebrated every year, but they never celebrated Brother's Day because they didn't find out when it was. Archie didn't care, because he started to celebrate Sister's Day with his favorite girls. He was the one who reminded them what day it was. Even after so many years, that day was still celebrated with chocolate and cards.
They kept all the cards in a box. The chocolates were shared between the three, and they always ended up sitting on the porch in Howard and Bernadette's house, eating chocolate, telling stories and watching the stars. As the years passed, the night ended with stories about Leonard and the three stopped talking to each other and looked at the stars, wondering if their dad was watching at them and was proud. They all thought he was. They then would get in the house, one that became home to themselves and their family, and would look around. Everything was still the way it always was. They had pictures everywhere and the adults ended that day with stories from before Halley was born.

That day existed to celebrate the bond between sisters. But in their family, that day celebrated the bond that, even after everything that happened, still remained in that group.


Read&Review

I want to show the relationship between the three kids – Halley, Maya and Archie. This story will show the bonds between everyone and how a family dealt with the loss of one of their beloved members. I sincerely hope I make the characters justice. Tell me ways to improve the story, my writing or the way to show the past and present.
Remember, I'm writing this story. What's in my head doesn't always enter the story, and I'm not sure if the story is going to be understood. So if you're not understanding something please ask. I will try to change!

By the way, sorry for the short chapter! The next one will be bigger!
