Familial Blues

I admit. I miss how my mom would get in the middle of my decision-making. I miss how my dad would force me to eat veggies. I miss how my younger sister would so tactlessly confirm my weight-gain and how my brother would ecstatically tell on me when I do something wrong.
Okay. Well, maybe not.
Point is, I miss them and quoting Lilo: “Ohana means Family. Family means no one gets left behind —or forgotten,” I’d do almost anything to be around them right now.
My mom just came home from the US . It’s great! I mean, I haven’t seen any of the former personas in almost two years… and now momma’s back—with tons of pasalubong!
We had a lot of catching up to do! My older sister and I have suffered the ache of solitude. We’d like to hear their story —of loneliness and missing us. Cunning. “Family means no one gets left behind —or forgotten!”
