We couldn’t stand each other.
Sometimes just being around her made my blood boil over. I’m sure she felt the
same about me. Any excuse was a good excuse to fight. She stayed in the
bathroom too long, she looked at me while I was talking on the phone, she had
on a belt that I really didn’t need but just wanted her to take it off, like I
said. Any excuse would do. Really, why did we fight so much? Frustration
possibly, being in the house with a mad man at times and having no one to take
anger out on could take a toll on the best. We had no hobbies, few friends and
little to no privileges to go out and about. Still through all the drama,
through fighting each other, I would gladly take a bullet to for this arrogant,
ignorant, and sometimes a downright mean bitch. Through thick and thin we have
stayed together and as the years transformed us from girls to women so has our
relationship changed. Her shoulder has become the sponge in which all my tears
are gladly soaked into. It never seems to get too soggy to hold them. Her ears
and mind are constantly listening and solving problems, sometimes for six
different people at a time. She’s never too busy to listen or cry with you.
Together we have seen the light of day and all its glory but we are definitely
not strangers to the dark and all its miseries. We persevered together and for
that you will always remain my friend, my keeper, my sister. Much love LaRita.
