This is a funny sub line, but when my brother turned 13, our childhood of climbing trees, picking berries, and outdoor fun times ended. I was 11 at the time.
His bedroom door was before mine so I passed by it regularly.
I stopped by as I usually did. He couldn't play. He told me that I would not understand. I told him that I would understand if he would explain it to me. He shook his head and for the first time in my little existence, he asked me to leave his room.
My father then entered my room and told me that I now needed to leave my brother alone. I was heartbroken. We lived in the country. He was the only relative and friend that we had for miles.
I checked out stacks of books when I went to the library. It filled the void.
Puberty... isn't it all about growing up and no longer climbing trees with your little sister?
