You were living with your five brothers since your parents died in a car accident. You were still very young while they were adults. You were always alone, they never had time to stay with you. You never felt that lonely before. During lunch, you were all eating together in the dining room like always. They were all talking to each other without giving you a glance.
After they ate, they asked you to clean the table, which you did without any complaints as you didn't want to be a burden for them. They got ready to go to the mall and you had to go with them since they couldn't let you behind. You wore your worn-out shoes and your thin jacket. You didn't have anything else against the cold winter.
You saw their clothes: They were all wearing fine outfits that looked expensive while you had clothes that barely fit you. You arrived at the mall and followed them in every store. You were always sitting in a corner waiting patiently for them.
You didn't dare to ask them for anything, you were too shy and you refused to be a burden. They finally finished buying everything. They were carrying dozens of bags. You noticed some child with their parents doing some shopping, and you felt sad suddenly. They all noticed it and their hearts shattered at the sight of you.
"Alyssa... Do you need to buy anything...?" asked the oldest.
