(Not urie though)
I have always hated Jerry, not because he was mean or anything to me, in fact, he was nice, nicer than my real father and that is why I hate him, he is the reason why my parents will never be together.

The worst thing that could happen to me? I am stuck here with Jerry in this hospital because mum is about to give me a present, a friend that I had been asking for since I was 5 years old, a friend to play with.

I have always felt lonely, nobody wanted to be friends with a freak like me, I was fat, my father left us and to top it all I was being bullied but I couldn't muster up the courage to tell anyone, I also blame Jerry for all of this!

Now, even though I am stuck here in a chair with him, seating beside me, we both share a bond of happiness and I really don't care if I don't want to see a smile on his face, all I want to see is my friend, my mum told me I will a big brother and as a big brother it will be my duty to protect my friend.

With all my heart I wish, it would be a girl, I don't know why, but I want a baby sister! I will name her Rapunzel because she will also have hair like mum has but I will not let any evil Witch take her away.

I start humming to the sound of rain, I leave my chair and go to the window that was in front of us, I climb the chair that was kept in front of the window and look out to see the rain falling, I have always loved rain, dad used to tell me stories whenever it rained, I sigh.

"What kind of mischief are you cooking up in your head now? Brendon, I am warning you, if you try to do anything with the child, this time I won't be able to stop myself from getting way to angry than I have ever been before. Do you understand?"

I roll my eyes at this and start saying," Jerry you know how much I want a friend, the only reason why I play pranks on you is because I don't want you in mine and my mother's life" at this a sad look crosses his face for just a second then it vanishes as if it was just his eye's illusion, it must be, he doesn't care about me, I am not his son, I have heard all these stories where the step-dads hate their step-children, why would he be any different from them?

"In fact, I have even selected a name if it would be a girl" I slightly turn pink.

'Really? Tell me what would you name her?'

'Rupenzel'

At this he starts laughing, what a jerk! This is why I hate him!

'You are such a cute child'

Oh oh, he didn't! Brendon, we will get our revenge later, right now let's just wait for our friend to arrive, I won't let him touch her, oh, or him.

I choose to ignore him, soon I am told that my mother has given birth to a girl.

I can't believe it, god heard my voice! I knew it! Yes! Rapunzel, here I come!

I am so excited! Finally, I won't be alone!

At this thought, I shout a 'Thank you god!' while looking up towards my invisible god at which I am hushed by Jerry, whose hand I was holding while going to my mother's hospital room.

When we enter, Jerry leaves my hand and rushes to my mother's side, I do so too and try to beat Jerry but was not able to, well what was I even thinking with a height like this obviously Jerry the Gaint had to win.

I sulk in the corner, not in the mood to see my friend right now, while jerry picks the baby from my mom's arm, I look at them from under my lashes, what a happy family, I wish to be a part of that family but I will only go if they will call me.

My mother finally notices me and calls me in her sweet voice, I have always liked her voice, she always sings a lullaby when I have to sleep but can't.

I run to her bed and try to climb it, Jerry gives the baby to mum and proceeds to help me climb it when I am finally up with my shoes removed, I stare at my mother's blue eyes, they are filled with joy. This is the first time I have seen her this happy after dad left us.

'Won't you want to pick the baby up, Brendon?' she asks me, with a smile on her face.

'Yes! I want to' I say all excited while jumping on the bed.

'Okay, so first sit quietly while crossing your legs' I do as she says and then she puts the baby on my lap, I look at her with amazement, she is so small, so tiny! I stare at her fingernails for quite sometimes with amazement, then I proceed to measure her foot length with that of my hands. She is so tiny, even her nose is tiny, everything about her is tiny. I look at her now open mouth with which she was smiling, she had no tooth just gums.

She is the most amazing thing I have ever seen, my mum is watching us with a smile while Jerry is clicking our picture when suddenly mum asked us what should we name her.

Jerry stops clicking pictures and says something the surprises me.

'Rupenzel'

He looks my way and then winks, I return it with a smile, maybe he is not that bad after all.

Note: Hello cutiepies! I wrote this because I wanted to apply for a freelancing job as a ghost writer and they had told us to attach a short scene of a 7 year old meeting his step-sister for the first time and this is what I ended up submitting. I ended up having a headache due to writing this, I honestly have no idea how this ended up sounding like as my brain is no longer able to function. Writing is not an easy task, shit my head is aching as if though somebody is trying to crush it with their bare hands and now I can hear the "shun" kind of sound, never mind.

Peace out sexy humans!
