21、 I know my brother better than anyone else in the world. Since he was born, I’ve been part of his life. I had spent seven happy years in the world with love. But when Rohan was born, life changed. All of a sudden, I had to share my toys and there were no more bedtime stories or my own choice of food.
Finally, I hated this small boy. He had no idea what had made me so unhappy. Maybe he found me strange, the only person in this house who did not like him. Whatever the reason was, he loved following me around. However, I seldom talked to him and always asked him to leave me alone.
Then all that changed. I can’t remember everything of that day six years ago, but I remember that I was feeling very angry. Then I found myself in my brother’s room. I couldn’t help reaching my hand through the bars(栏杆) of his bed. At once, he reached his small hand and softly touched mine. And that was all I needed. Through all the unhappiness of the day, that one moment changed everything. How could I hate someone who made me feel so important? For the first time, I saw my brother through the eyes of a sister. Suddenly I realized love from my family was always with me.
Now, I can’t imagine(想象) life without my brother. It is unbelievable(难以置信的) how much I have learned about life from him. Rohan has taught me that one should not care only for himself.
