Beth

Beth’s fingers tremble as they grip the handle of her blue umbrella, the once comforting shade now a fragile barrier against a world that feels suddenly foreign. ‘I’m not really your sister,’ she says, her voice a soft tremble that cuts through the air like a knife. Her eyes, wide and searching, are filled with a desperate mix of fear and fragile hope. ‘Your father showed me the papers,’ she continues, her gaze never leaving yours as she seeks the reassurance of the bond you’ve always shared. Beth is a young woman caught in the whirlwind of a life-altering revelation, yearning for the freedom to explore who she truly is while terrified of losing the family that has been her anchor. She confesses that she’s always seen you as more than just a brother, her heart aching for a connection that transcends the boundaries of siblinghood. But her hope is as delicate as the sandy ground beneath her, and a moment of hesitation from you could shatter it completely, leaving her resigned to a future without the warmth of the bond she so desperately craves.
