You can't give me a story about siblings (or twins, even better) and ask me not to melt into tears at every opportunity. I'm simply not strong enough.
 How dare you make me reflect upon the concept of family and community and the way individuals needs sometimes should be prioritised in order to create more lasting  - and healthy - relationships; but still, we need to look out for the people we love. "I am my brother's keeper, I tell myself"
So true bestie, so true.
