You are my favorite sister (don't tell the other ones). Words cannot describe how much I love you. And I am so sorry that I had to leave you. I am sorry I had to leave you alone with her. I know you wanted me to stay, I know you love me, I know you want me to be there. And I am very sorry that I can't. But if there is anyone who understands why I had to leave, it should be you.
You know that I cannot bare to live with her for another minute. You know how mean and cruel she can be to me. You have seen the fights, the yelling, the screaming. You know that I love her so much. You know that I tried really hard to make things work. You know she doesn't try. You know she doesn't care about me.
But I feel so guilty for leaving you alone with her. But you know that I am here for you. You know my cell phone number. You know my email address. You know me. The only who truly understands me is you.
Please forgive me for leaving you.
Love, Your Big Sister
