First Fight

 First Fight

         Y’all know that when it comes to a brother and a sister, there are arguments. But when you have a younger sibling, like for a younger brother and an elder sister, for instance, there are disagreements for anything like who came first or who came last, or even for movies. It’s the same thing in my family. Some point in your life, there was a first time for anything.        There’s a first time for watching a movie in a movie theater, the first Nintendo game you played, your first time washing your dishes. But there is also the first time you might have fought. You may have fought with your sibling or (If you don’t have one) your comrade, or may be even both. I also had a first time to fight with my little brother. Frankly, I had lost my first bicker with my brother. You must read this factual story about a quarrel for a Nintendo DS Lite, and I mean the one that was made in 2007.
        I was 7 years old when I got the Nintendo DS Lite. My mother had brought it as a birthday gift. My little brother was 3 years old at that moment.  A day later, my mother and I went to Toys ‘R’ Us to get a game. I bought the game Bratz Forever Diamonds. We took it home after we paid for it.  My Nintendo DS Lite was done charging and we activated it. It was late at night and I changed into my PJ’s. Next, I went to bed. The next morning, I freshened up, took a shower, changed my clothes, and my mother made my hair. I caught the bus and went to school to do the regular first grade things. At home I changed back into my PJ’s and did my homework. Then I asked my mom if I could play on my Nintendo. She said yes. I played when my juvenile brother toddled like a penguin toward me. He had just gotten his first tooth and was biting anything that got in his way. He was able to talk and bit me. Then he asked if he could play. “No” I refused. “Plewase?” he asked. “No!” I told him firmly. He started to cry and I went to mom. “Mom, Ayaan is crying.” She came to him and asked me if I had said something. “Well, Ayaan wanted to play on my Nintendo, but I said N0.” I explained. “Anam, share it with him, he is younger, but he will take care of it.” My mom said gently. “But Mom, I-” My sentence was cut off. “Give it to him.” She said strictly. “Fine, here you go Ayaan” I tried to say gently. My mom let me play on that computer.  I played on Barbie.com and Ayaan played on the Nintendo.
        Although that was it, I’d like to say something. My brother and I still fight but we make up again. We are scolded about not to fight. My aunt said once to us that we can not stay in one room for two minutes without fighting. Well, one day we will not fight and that may be tomorrow, or the next day, and so on and so forth.  For now, that fight will still be remembered in our lives. Well, see you soon…
