Born on January 18th 1983; and yes, she is already 36 years of age TODAY. I created this blog about her because she gets insecure with my blog post about my brother. Inggitera kasi yan. Haha. Well, I actually realized that I had to make one for her too not because she wanted to but because she also deserved to be noticed and appreciated.
Who is she? She is Maribeth Beberino. She is my Sister. She is one of a kind. She is the most understanding and most loving sister I have known in my entire life. (Haha. She is my only sister. Do I have a choice? Joke.) She has the biggest heart that anyone else could have in our family. Honestly speaking, I am teary-eyed while drafting this blog. I can tell that I am the luckiest brother to have a sister like her. She is willing to listen to my every stories; I am always bullying her but I will be her protector when someone bullied her.
I will never forget that when we are both young, we used to fight everyday about everything. I used to be a brat. So I keep on getting her in trouble with my mom but its ok with her. She still loves me so much. We fight about the remote control and who will turn the channel on the Television. We fight about getting the water or who will do the errand. Of course, since I am the youngest at that time and I am a brat, she had no choice but to do all the errands or else Mom will nag at her. My mom is a big nagger and we both knew and scared of that. LOL.
When we were both young, we fight about everything. Now that she had her own family and I am a fully grown human, we both understand each other deeply. We may misunderstood things and scenario sometimes but we are discussing it first before we throw a fight. We tend to talk about things and stuffs now. And our fights before? We are just laughing at it now. Haha. One afternoon after my work, I video called her and we talked about how and who we are when we were both young and we realized how silly we were before and we are laughing so hard thinking how that happen. Now, my sister had her three very cute kiddos and I could say she is such a great mother to them. She is on hand with her kids. I just don’t like her when she is shouting with her kids or on how she discipline her kiddos. I am not a parent yet and I am not saying I know better than her but sure she knows best; she is the mother. I just don’t like to see my nephew and nieces crying.
My relationship with my sister Yvette considers not too close when we are both young. But thanks to God that our relationship now are better than before. #SiblingsGoal ang peg namen ngayon. Insert Justine Kulot. We used to be each other’s shoulder now when anyone of us have some troubles or problems. But usually, she is always there to listen to me. Like ALWAYS and I truly appreciate that from her. We cry with each other in times that we cannot handle life’s tantrums at all. In an honest point, we cry when we felt bad from our mother but I technically I cannot discuss that in here. I remember one time, I had a big misunderstanding and a fight with my mom. (I usually keep everything alone) but this time, I really can’t take it anymore, so I called her. I told her the whole story and she is there to listen and gives me a piece of advice. Naalala ko na I was crying so hard that time and I can’t even breathe. She was like, “wag ka na umiyak tol.” And she is also crying while asking me to stop crying! What a relief after I called her. That’s the dose I am needing that time. It made me realize things and it made my mind clear. She helped me decide!
We actually had big fights as well that took more than a month before we talk to each other again. That’s how big our fight is. Well, she had her ego that sometimes she doesn’t want to accept her fault and will never talk to me because she thinks she is older than me, she had to be right and I should apology for what had happen and I will never tolerate that. Whoever’s fault it is, he or she had to apologize for the mistake. End of the story. But I cannot also blame her for that. All through her life, she used to be blamed always because of me. She may got that ego against me because she was carrying it over through her life. But she is an understanding sister. She is an awesome sister and I love her so much.
Some people always call her ugly. Physically, her skin tone is darker than before. She gained a lot of weight and her hair is curly and heavy. I will not exempt myself in calling her ugly because I honestly call her like that most of the time. But I don’t mean it as she is ugly, I only meant it as a joke. She always tell me that she is my stress reliever. Whenever I felt so sad and angry, I am video calling her and joke around and I will feel good somehow. I honestly felt so bad whenever I heard people criticizing her and I felt bad for myself also because I am criticizing her sometimes too. #GuiltyNotGuilty ang peg ko kasi I really meant it only as a joke not meant it as to judge her with physique.
