I Miss You Big Brother!

[Helen Mowry]

Helen Mowry was so happy! She would be going to stay with Hezzy for a whole week! Helen was so excited. The four year old zommed around her parents home like an airplane for almost two hours straight. That was until Mommy stopped her from having her fun. Mommy had said she was being obnoxious. Helen did not know what hat word meant, but she had a feeling it meant something good! Big words only meant good things, right? She had not seen her brother for a long time, and Helen did not like it. She loved her big brother. He fed her well and took care of her good. They would play games and sing songs together. Helen missed that. She really wanted to be able to do all those awesome things with her brother, but he was avoiding her. Helen hoped she had not done anything to make Hezzy hate her. That would make her very, very sad. If Hezekiah hated her then she would be a bad sister, and bad people get bad luck. Mommy grabbed Helen's hand and they went from being in the living room to the porch of Hezekiah's home. Helen was so excited that she was a few minutes away from seeing her brother she forgot her manners. "Oppa! Oppa!" she called out in her native language. When she was excited she tended to forget her English.

 

[Hezekiah Mowry]

Hezekiah Mowry was expecting to have a quiet week. There would be a full moon this week, and Hez definitely needed to be alone. He was having major mood swings, and his home was in a mess. He was very sensitive due to his temporarily heightened senses. He felt like he was starving because he refused to eat any meat that was not meat. Hezekiah sat on the counter in the kitchen. He had just woken up from a 2 hour nap. He had plans on cleaning up his home, but he decided to just marvel at how well he was able to trash a place. There was stuffing from the pillows and sofa, the glass coffee table was in shards, the sofas were overturned, the walls tapestries were peeling off and he did not even want to think about how horrible his room was. Hezekiah started to sniff the air. He smelled baby oil and cherries. His eyes widened. Soon he heard his younger sister's voice calling him. Hezekiah jumped off of the counter and started to bite his nails. What was she doing here? Why was she here? Hezekiah had still not been able to tell his family he was now a werewolf. It was almost a year now. Hezekiah set up some cleaning charms and went to the door. He was in torn sweats and a wrinkled blue T-shirt. He slowly opened the door. Instead of looking down to greet Helen he looked straight at his mother. "Why are you here? It is not a good time at the moment, or a good week." he told her sourly. Hezekiah would have been more respectful, but he hated when his family thought they could drop off whenever they pleased. "We need you to take Helen for a week. We are going to visit your sister." his mother said. Hezekiah rolled his eyes. Henrietta was the most spoiled and annoying married woman in their family. He shook his head. "I can't. I am going to be pretty busy this week. Why can't you just take her with you?" he suggested. His mother started to get frustrated with him. "Goby. You know Henrietta is not verypleasant when Helen is around. Please take her. It is just for a week." Mother pleaded with him. Hezekiah was getting irritated. Why had she had to say his middle name? It was such a childish name for a guy like him. So what? He could not risk taking Helen. Who knows when he would be back home after his transformation! "Omma! I cannot take her! Henrietta needs to grow the f*ck up anyways!" he raised his voice. He had forgotten that his Helen was present. He was not really concerned about his younger sister at the moment though.

Helen spread her arms wide for a hug from her brother. Hezzy had not even noticed her. She made a pout face and let her arms fall to her sides. Why did Hezzy look so dirty? He was very clean whenever she came around. Had he not known she was coming? Helen stayed quiet as Mommy and her brothe went back and forth. Her borther's bad behavior scared her. Why was he so angry? She did not understand most of what was being said because I was in English. She understood bits and pieces, and the bits and pieces she heard made her tear up. Hez hated her. She knew it. That was why he had not been coming to play with her. He hated her! Helen started to cry and wail loudly. She hugged one of her brother's legs. "Oppa!"she cried into his leg. She did not want her brother to hate her. She loved Hezekiah! He couldn't hate her. It would not be fair.

Hezekiah could not stand whining. It annoyed him to the maximum. When Helen started to cry Hezekaih got even more annoyed. He had a feeling he should have left home yesterday so none of this could have happened. He hated times like this. He hated having to push his family way like this. He pulled his leg from Helen's weak grip and he stepped back into his house. He slammed the door shut. Apparating was not allowed to get in or out of his house. Hezekiah leaned against the door. He couldn't believe he was turning his back on his family. It was for their own good. Hezekiah knew himself when it came close to the full moon. He tended to be very violent. He did not want to take any chances with Helen. Hez did not know why he could not just tell his family that he was a werewolf. He shook his head at the thought. He couldn't. He wouldn't. Hezekiah sighed and slid to the floor.
