Open post! ΒΌ of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pls Mona H A T E D being in the same house as her older brother Paul. HATED it with CAPITAL LETTERS!
He was everywhere! He always tried to "help" her by correcting her wand work the moment she failed a spell! He offered her help with her homework. He was acting the saint. At times, Mona wondered if he even had anything else to do. He was a sixth year, and he was supposed to be studying for something. But no, he was helping his little sister and revising that way. She wanted to puke. She wanted to hex him. She wanted them to graduate him early.
After another flustering moment on her part (he was just very happy being the 'helpful big brother'!), she ran up the stairs to her safe haven and screamed into the pillows. And there was no way out for her, because what was she going to complain about to her mom? That he was "helping her" with her homework!? And their dad was a joke. The man was a muggle to begin with, and she knew he would take HIS side. Maybe she could talk to the Headmaster. Show them just how successful her big brother was, and ask for an early graduation. What made it all worse was that Joel, her younger big brother did not suffer her fate! Paul left him completely alone. Maybe she needed to look like Joel too!
She sighed one of the most dramatic sighs in human history, and flipped to lay down face up on her bed. Why wasn't she born like 2 years later? What made it worse, Logan Paton was always there whenever Paul corrected her, and she was convinced that Logan Paton thought she was an idiot.
She wanted to disappear. |
