She loves him

She loves him. 

Fast forward two plus years and I'm sure all I'll be doing is playing referee and bribing for cooperative behavior. Now fast forward twenty years though and I hope they both share this same caring look to each other. I hope they admire each other. I hope they support each other. I hope they share inside jokes and talk about how mom worries too much. I hope they share broken hearts and laughs all the same. I hope they treasure this bond they are already starting to build. 

I hope she always looks up to her brother. I hope he never looks down on her. I hope she always goes to him and he listens better than he does now. I hope he continues to care for her, and teaches her to care for others. 

I hope he sees that longing to join that she has in her eyes, and continues to let her in.
