Cat and Dog...

If anybody of you recall some of my discussions, I often touched the idea of my relationship with my sister. Yes, my only sister who is 11 years my senior. When my 2 older brothers from the capital city came home for the Christmas break, and my 4th older brother came with them, I thought I and my sister will be okay. But there was one time that she spoke sarcastically again and I had to answer her back (the umbrella her daughter gave me was already destroyed and beyond repair). I told her I will have to throw it but she shouted at me and said " i get it back, it is given to you by my daughter". Of course I had to get the umbrella back from her hands, and she talked sarcastically. I replied shouting until I felt some shaking and difficulty of breathing, I thought I was going to die. She did not want to be 'overpowered' so she suddenly lied down on the floor shouting "Don't touch me" to our brothers. I told our brothers, "it is always like this, manongs." She then said, "I will kill myself". I responded, "then go out of the house, not here at home". "I live here I can do whatever I want", she responded. "Then you will let us fix your body?". My oldest brother said, "If you want to go to your kids, come back with us". She replied", I do not want to keep my kids see me like this", to which I said, "you want me to always be seeing you like this?" She lifts the burden off her kids, and she wants me and my son take care of her "corpse after she commits suicide?" So selfish... After that, I made my own promise... a promise I am keeping it until now! LESS TALK, LESS MISTAKE... NO TALK, NO MISTAKE! Tthe lesser I interact with her, the lesser we will have the head-on collision. She can now sense that I am slowly losing my respect for her. RESPECT IS NOT ALWAYS IMPOSED... IT SHOULD BE EARNED!
