Everybody was calling this girl Berry. That was not her real name, her parents wouldn’t do something like that to their firstborn – instead, they gave her pretty normal name, Barbara, but from the beginning nobody cared. She was Berry. She grew up to be tall and athletic teen, with long, black hair, and cute face, even despite of having a nose that was little too big. Berry wasn’t the brightest girl ever born in the world, but you couldn’t call her stupid either. She was also nice, had a positive attitude and, above all else, had one important trait especially her parents valued: she adored her younger siblings.
The red-haired twins, Matt and Sue, were born when Berry was five years old and she developed her deep, sisterly love to them immediately. And when they grew a little, they started to love her with almost the same strength. And each other as well. They were all surprisingly harmonious siblings.
And that’s where our story begins.
That day, Berry was preparing herself to go out with some of her friends, she wore her favourite, loose blouse and comfortable jeans, when something she has rarely seen, occurred. The twins, sitting on the sofa, have suddenly started fight fiercely over a television set’s remote control.
What was going on, they were usually watching the same programs. Berry’s first idea was the kiddos started to hit the puberty – their age was more or less correct for that to happen. There’ll be more and more differences between them because of their gender. She could only hope it’ll not ruin their bonds completely.
Well, maybe not only that. She was their big, smart and experienced sister, after all… With that, somewhat sarcastic, thought, she came closer, grabbed the remote and sat between kids.
“What’s wrong with you today, nippers? I’m a bit busy but can’t stand you making such a noise without reason.” she said.
For the second time during last few minutes, her siblings surprised her negatively. Without a word they tried to get the remote back, although Berry’s reflex was too good for them. She has just raised her hand and kept the device out of their reach. She was not only older, she was also tall for her age, they were definitely not for their own.
“I’ll ask only one more time: what’s wrong?”
“Nothing!” yelled Matt angrily. The fury was almost shooting from his big, childish, green eyes. “I just want to watch the cartoons and she…”
“I didn’t do anything!” Sue was apparently as angry as her twin. But why?
“I’ve never done something like this to you,” said Berry “But maybe neither of you should watch the television? As long as you tell…”
Matt tried to jump up and grab the remote but with no success. Berry just moved a little bit. Although that was the moment when she lost sight of Sue for a second and that was enough. The small girl has pulled her hand under her sister’s blouse and started to tickle her belly button.
Berry started laughing uncontrollably. That was her ticklish spot and the twins knew that, they were all doing tickle fights dozens of times. Much more friendlier tickle fights, that is. But despite of being tortured, Berry didn’t move her raised arm.
And that was a mistake, because now Matt also started his own attack, on his sister’s armpit. She tried to tell them to stop, but was powerless.
Suddenly, Sue’s hand travelled higher on Berry’s body and ripped off her bra. The small girl quickly fled with her “trophy” to the bedroom. And locked herself there. Berry could only bang into the door.
“Give me my bra back! I have to go in five minutes!”
“Go without it, who cares!”
As if! With all the positive traits and attractiveness has Berry owned, she has always been very shy (if not even tiny bit paranoid) about her body, she would never left home without her bra. She sat on the floor and leaned back on the wooden door.
“This can’t be fucking happening!” she hissed. “Have you both lost your minds?!” she asked Matt without expecting any answer. The small boy stopped doing anything the moment his twin closed the door. He was only standing in the hallway and watching.
Suddenly, he started crying.
Sue opened the door hearing this, and Berry understood she wouldn’t go anywhere that day. Not just because of not having a bra. There was other reason and she learned it a minute later.
Her siblings have been bullied at school.
