"I don't know. I'm angry, at Sunny- but sad, too, and I kinda wished that I could not be angry at him."  she admitted, not quite knowing if she was making any sense. though she felt anger for her brother, she sometimes wished they could just be happy, brother and sister, like they were supposed to.
