my little brother
Yesterday night, i was going to sleep early, with the rest of my family members, so that i can be in my top form for today's paper! (Which didnt went well......)
It felt good, that i didnt have to study late into the night, listening to my dad's and my 2nd bro's snoring and wishing to be like them, sleeping, not the snoring part.
So me and my little bro, ( we share a room), he happened to be still awake and i happened to be just turning in. I thought, since we seldom talk, i decided to ask him about school and stuff..
And he started babbling off, recounting the first day of school right from K1, K2.. how he didnt like school and why, and why during Pri 1 and 2 he hated going because he was being bullied (Here, i was alarmed and started asking him if he reported this to his teachers or tell Mum.) and was scolded by mummy because he lost his water bottle and it wasnt even his fault since those stinky bullies hide it elsewhere, and how he was so excited to start the school year during P3 and P4.
There was one particular thing he talked about that left a deep impression on me of my 2nd bro.
Little bro was all excited when he told me this. He said he was especially excited when he started Pri 1, same school as the 2nd bro. Because there was this buddy system where the new P1s have to be accompanied by someone older, sort of like teach them to buy food and help them get around the school. So he got a buddy, who happens to be his brother, he should be Pri 6 then. For recess, the big one would be with the small one, help him buy his food etc. During one particular break, little bro's friend lost his buddy and was crying.
He said, all proudly, "Kor told me to go sit by myself first and he went off to help my friend find his buddy". WOW. With an eyebrow raised pretty high, i stopped him at this point and asked if he remembered wrongly or was it just some selective recollection on his part. No, it was the truth, or so he claimed.
Still thinking about that brother when he was Pri 6 and the present him, i asked Matthias ( that's little bro's name), to go to sleep.
I realised there are so many things that i dont know about both siblings, maybe because i really cant be bothered, but i really should start doing some "getting to know them better" conversations from now, especially that Alphaeus (the 2nd bro) about his silly girlfriends.
Oh man, thought i've just heard my "Nitrogen Compound" notes beckoning me to start revision, ciao.......
