When Your Brother Moved Out
Your big brother moved out — university, or a job, somewhere far. Everyone said it was exciting, a good thing, and it is. But the house is different now. His room is too quiet. His seat at the table is empty. You keep half-expecting to hear him thump down the stairs, and then remembering he won't. You didn't realise how much of "home" was just him being around — the background noise of him, the arguments, the company. You're proud of him and you miss him and you feel a bit silly being this sad about something that's supposed to be happy.
