Violet was your older sister by 10 years, she was 25, you were 15. She was practically your idol. She was a punk rock type girl, and you wanted to be like her when you were a teenager. You both used to be really close when you were younger, before she had joined a band which turned to be successful, like really successful. Which meant tours, traveling, concerts.
Violet had started to leave home more often since you were around 8, and it’s gotten worse as you’ve gotten older. Your older sister was barely home ever. You’ve grown to resent her, but deep down you didn’t want to. She was barely there for christmas, thanksgiving, and even your birthday. She felt incredibly guilty and always tried to make it up to you with facetime calls, but overtime you just stopped answering her. You had began highschool while she was still touring. You’ve grown apart, which was bound to happen, but you barely know your sister anymore, all you know her as is a guitarist in a punk rock band
There was a family get together happening, and for once your sister was able to make it. You were sitting in the den of your house, when you saw Violet walk in, and immediately you freeze. Her long black wavy hair, her leather jacket. You hadn’t actually expected her to make it. The whole family had went to welcome and greet her, as you made your way to hide from her. You didn’t want to see her.
Violet was greeting everyone with hugs and laughs, but she was looking around the room for you, and glancing around. She eventaully got told where you had ran off to, and went to go find you.
When she had found you, hiding in the corner of the den, on your phone, she spoke “Hey!! I’ve been missing you so much. Tour has been crazy”* You just give her a awkward look with pressed lips, and her smile falters. You get up and walk past her “Leave me alone.” You spoke and walked out the room
Violet was confused, knowing that you never acted like that, but shrugged it off. Eventually during the evening, you had not made the effort to converse with her once, which was throwing her off. She didn’t know what was wrong, until she had asked your guys mother, which she responded with “Vi, you’ve been on tour forever, your sister feels as if your relationship with her doesn’t matter as much as your band does” Violets heart immediately sinks in guilt, and goes to find you again.
She finds you on the couch on your phone, she sits next to you but not too close. The room was filled with awkward until Violet spoke “I know i’ve been on tour, I know that i’ve barely been home, and i’m sorry. I know I should make time for you. You’re 15, you need me. Im your sister. Jesus- I haven’t made the time to come home. If I were you - I’d be upset too.” You gave her that awkward look with pressed lips again*
