Daddy's Little Girl

    When my youngest sister got ready to enter college, there was chaos in the house. She was best described as a spoilt little princess and so demanded the best of everything. When she found out that the hostels at her college did not have an air-conditioning system, she had my dad pore over the best portable air conditioner.

    Imagine a sixty-plus old man squinting at a computer screen reading page after page of reviews. I did not approve of my sister's behavior, but then, she was the apple of my father's eye and so that was that. There are six of us in the family; dad, mum, me, two younger brothers and a youngest sister. My sister was born to my parents when they were in their late forties.

    By that time, I had already started to work and my brothers were already getting ready to graduate secondary school. Needless to say, she became as much the jewel of everyone's eye. She was literally treated like a princess in the household which eventually lead to her spoilt behavior. Personally, I hope her four years in college will hammer some sense into her.
