Blood Shot

I gave an inarticulate squawk that made Peppy jump.
“No, really, Vic. But all these things I’ve been thinking about, well, I see you never wanted me to be like you. It was just part of my head trip, how I thought if I did the same things you did, you would like me well enough to let me really be part of your family.”
“No way, babe-I want you doing what’s good for you, not what’s right for me.”
She nodded. “So I applied out there and rushed everything through and I’m leaving in two weeks. I’m making Ma’s folks buy the house on Houston and that’s giving me the money to go. But I wanted to tell you in person, and I hope you meant it, that you’ll always be my sister, because, well, anyway, I hope you meant it.”
I knelt next to her chair and put my arms around her. “Till death do us part, kid.”
