Your sibling is your best friend and when it comes to "brown" siblings we experience things no other siblings go through. Whether it's at home dealing with your parents or at random events dealing with aunties and uncles, you always have each other's back.
My brother is obsessed with Drake, so as a shoutout, I've created a list of some typical things all "brown" siblings go through with the help of Drake.
1. Walking in late to everything like...
You have always been late to everything since day one. The constant struggle of telling your parents that you have to be dropped off at 7 p.m. when the actual event doesn't start till 7:30 p.m, but they still manage to drop you at 8 p.m.
2. When your mom hits you with, "What do you want to eat?"
The constant struggle when your family can't decide what they want to eat for dinner and then your mom asks the inevitable question. You and your sibling just look at each other and at the same time say, "you can pick!" 10 minutes later after the listing of ten restaurants and everyone has their opinion of why they don't want to eat it, and in the end, your mom just ends up picking something.
3. OMG, I remember you when you were four years old *pinches cheeks*
The constant struggle of being somewhere and your parents introduce you to random aunties who claim to know you when you were four years old and know how tall you were and they expect you to know who they are. It's like I didn't even know myself when I was four years old and my parents taught me not to talk to strangers so bye felica.
4. "I'll go if you go."
Mom's second cousin's daughter's first birthday party: "I'll go if you go."
Dad's cousins' son's daughter-in-law's cousin's wedding reception: "I'll go if you go."
Mom bribes you to come to anything because the food will be good: "I'll go if you go."
5. When your mom is the plug.
When your mom makes biryani and you know you're going to eat three plates. The motto: you're here for a good time not a long time.
6. No new friends
You will always be there for each other! If your parents are mad at you for not working hard enough or you just can't seem to catch a break, your sibling is always there to laugh at you and make you feel better. Because at the end of the day, you still ride with your day one.
