Amaria was in her room, sitting on her nice and comfy bed, and as she was re-reading one of the books that she has on her shelf."Coraline", was so good, she felt like she could read it again and again. As she settled in, she started by flipping the pages of the book that she was reading. Then, she heard a knock on her door. Amaria put down the book. She focused on the outline of the person who was at the door. It was her mother, Kelly.
"Hey, just so you know, things are going to be a little bit different tomorrow. You will still have your second day of school, but, I'm going to pick up your brother early to go to a psychologist.",said Kelly.
Amaria starts to raise an eyebrow.
"Why's that?",asked Amaria.
"Well since you're going back to school and Priya just started Kindergarten, it seems that your brother is still having difficulty adjusting. Me and your father think this is a important time and decided to check to see what is going on with him.",explained Kelly.
Amaria was silent. She already knew her mother was always talking about Sai and problems with his "issues" Amaria could remember when it used to be just her and her mother. Amaria had always wanted siblings. When her mom got married, she felt she was blessed with her little brother, Sai, and , her youngest sister, Priya. Amaria knew as she was growing that Sai, even though he is the sweetest kid, he always had a lot of issues. This had been going on with him for what seemed to be forever. It would often frustrate her parents. Amaria couldn't even figure it out herself. Amaria was 15 year old kid. She didn't get what went on with Sai at times. He was only 8. The only thing that Amaria remembered, when she was around Sai's age, that she read a lot. She was a good student,she did ballet and a lot more other things. Whenever she looked at Sai, she could see the problems he was having.
"That's a good idea, Mom! You are doing the right thing! You are helping him.",said Amaria.
Kelly started smiling at her daughter.
"You are a really good kid you know that." Told Kelly to Amaria
Both of them could remember that Amaria was Kelly's first baby. She had raised her for a little while before she married Andy. During those years when Kelly was a single parent, both the mother and daughter developed a close bond. As the years went on, there were moments that Amaria could go up to Andy for problems. Amaria would always go up to her mother all the time. This was their time to chat and joke.
"Mommy! Are you done talking to Amaria YET!?",shouted Priya from downstairs.
"Oh coming baby!",shouted Kelly.
She ran downstairs to go and see why Priya was calling her while Amaria laughed .
