"It can't be..."
Murmuring in a low voice, I felt how my stomach flipped. I looked at the young girl standing in front of me, with her arms crossed and pouting. Her body trembled and shuddered; she let out a moan of pain...
My body reacted automatically. Standing up quickly, I grabbed in my arms the body of my delicate younger sister. She wrapped her arms around mine...
Letting out a deep sigh, I held back the chills, unable to say a single word...
"Brother, it's already very late."
My sister's blue eyes stared directly at me. She extended her hands and gently touched my cheek:
"You look so tired," she said in a worried voice.
A smile appeared on my face.
"Well... taking care of my little sister, after all..."
My sister hugged me tighter and whispered:
"Never leave me, brother..."
"I won't," I said while caressing her soft black hair...
She slipped from my arms and smiled energetically, but her smile faded when a pained expression appeared on her face...
