I was like the typical kids. Way back to my neneng days my favorite game was "taking-king cross". Yes it's just a game and I was just playing the game, but in that moment I learned the most important lesson I could ever learn in my whole life.
All of us were having such a good time playing, but there's this one girl who accused me of stealing here "mato" (the stone used in playing the game). My brother witnessed the girl yelling at me and giving me false accusations, he witnessed her sister being bullied and maltreated. He saw the tears falling down my eyes which triggered my brother's anger towards her. Kuya defended me and confronted the girl. I felt safe and protected, I found a superhero in my brother's persona.
That experience is still something that I am reflecting with until now. I learned that even sometimes you wont be in good terms, but your family would always be there for you. Other people won't treat you right, but your family will always have your back no matter what.
