I was an accident. I was born eight years after my sisters, Casey and Becky. Becky, twenty-eight, and the oldest, took care of me; I became her real life baby doll. And Casey, twenty-six, well, she ignored me. And still does. My sister, Casey has resented me since the day I was born, that much I do know, and is no surprise to anyone in our outside the Jones’ Family. I suppose that’s what they call “middle child syndrome”. Resentment, bitter, jealousy, hostile. Those does not quite represent how Casey feels towards me. Hatred is too far; Casey loathes me. I hadn’t even done anything, I had been alive in the world for ten minutes, long enough to have a family photo where, inevitably, Casey is looking at me in our mothers arms, and her eyes, like lasers; shooting me with a look of disgust and envy, and what looks like a slight hint of spite.

And yes, it was painful and I had to get stitches, but what was most painful of all, was the look of sheer disappointment on Casey’s face after I came home from the hospital. I wasn’t quite sure if she was mad that I ruined her party, so the only thing I thought to do was wallow in self pity and grovel. After that, she ignored my existence in the house for a solid three months. I tried my hardest to apologize, but she would not accept or even acknowledge it. Casey was clearly one to hold a grudge, even to a five year old. And I spent months trying to make up for it, even giving her my birthday money and presents. Nothing seemed to work. Eventually I gave up and I let it go. I wonder if she ever

The cars on the highway were caught in a slow crawl, not unusual for any morning trip to work but Will could hear the wail of ambulance sirens in the distance and the flashing blue and red lights of police cars. Soon enough he passed by the barricades which blocked off a portion of the road. A crumpled car, rammed from the back and front, windscreen completely smashed, stood by the dented railings of the road. On the tar road, a body lay sprawled, face down in a pool of dark red and black, stained glass shards around it stuck in the lime-green and blue jacket which the victim wore. Will swallowed, the air in the car suddenly becoming clammy and the profiler looked away, continuing his daily routine.

During a social event, we surprisingly ran into each other. We both initially froze at the sight of one other, but then smiled. We approached each other, hugged and smiled again. In all honestly, I should have been furious to have seen her, but I wasn’t. I didn’t hold anything against her that moment not because I love her and will always love her, but because I allowed myself to let go of everything I was bottling inside.
