I cannot believe how fast time goes by. It felt just like yesterday when Papa woke me up in the middle of the night and told me that I just had a baby brother. Now he’s about to be 12. But he’s already a man on his 12th year of life…
I used to share my bed with him everytime I sleep at home. Just recently I realized that my little used to be brother is a young man now. It doesn’t feel like sleeping with a boy, it does feel like sleeping with a man. Sometimes he hugs me protectively in his sleep, but sometimes he demands me to hug him close to make sure that his got a company who’ll always gonna be there for him. And he smells like a man with his Hugo or YSL slim fit shirt!
My brother is a man when he refused to use his favourite Johnson & Johnson Floral Baby Cologne. He sprays Aqua Bvlgari in the evening and Axe Score in the morning.
He is a man when he asked me what is after-shave for and got me bought him one. He doesn’t know how to shave until now, and that’s not necessary coz his face is just as clean as baby’s face.
He came with a statement that he loves Armani and Moschino a lot, and refused any Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck on his shirts (skulls are acceptable, he said).
We must get used with Papa’s talking about he must pay a lot for my baby brother’s cell phone bills because he starts texting and calling a lot of girls.
He took a brave decision when he decided that he’ll go to boarding school and says that he can deal with that, meanwhile the thing he hates the most is being far away from home.
He is very much a gentleman when he told me that I can choose his best team in Winning Eleven and he’ll play the worst team so I can win and won’t be sad anymore… I just through a truly bad moment at that time.
I almost shed a tear (of pride and happiness) when he starts to say thank you for the dinner I make him (something he’ll never do in the past!) but politely tell me that the dinner wasn’t so great.
He is a man… but over all, he’s still my baby brother. And he’ll remain be my baby brother forever…
