Meet My Brothers by Red Thirteen

Ginger was not sure how to address him, so she stuttered every time she spoke to him.

She was so excited when she heard that her brother would be discharged from the hospital and come home, so she was eager to share her happiness with others. All her uncles and aunts already got the news.

Timothy was the only one she could share the news with.

When Timothy heard Ginger's crisp voice on the other side of the phone, surprise flashed across his eyes. "Your brother has recovered?"

"Yes, Mommy said Sage can go to school like me from now on."

Ginger's birthday wish was the same every year-she hoped her brother would be discharged from the hospital soon.

Her wish finally came true this year, so she was on cloud nine.

Timothy's heart melted when he heard his daughter's soft and adorable voice.

He stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and said, "I'm happy to know that."

Shaking her legs, Ginger paused for a while before she added, "I'm happy about that too! Sage has finally recovered.

"I hate being sick. I have to take medicines every time I'm sick. I don't want Sage to take medicines and get injections. That's why Mommy and I lied to you."

Ginger knew that lying was a bad habit. Since Timothy already knew about Sage's existence, she felt that it should be fine to tell him about it.
