December 25, 2002 Christmas morning I rushed to the stairs jumping down two steps at a time and ran towards the Christmas tree that filled the living room with the smell of fresh pine. I was ready to shout and scream "Merry Christmas" but paused my Christmas spirit at the bundle on my mother's lap. Sitting on the couch was my mom and my step-dad with his arm wrapped around her shoulder with a red mug with gold writing written across it.
Sitting on moms lap was a girl no older than me, she had long black hair the probably reached the back of her knees and large bold emerald green eyes with long lashes and thick eyebrows all on a pale face.
"Mason, sweetie come and meet your new little sister." my mother whispered with a smile on her face.
I walked over and did an awkward little wave and whispered "Hi."
Her eyes just flickered over my face and she just stared at me not saying a word. I was entranced with how vivid her eyes were, maybe it was her pale face that made it them eye-catching.
My mom shifted deeper into the couch "Meet Avery, she's going to be living with us from now on." The love and care was evident in my mom's eyes, my father also had a look of adoration on his face at my new little sister.
"Well kiddo it's Christmas go see what Santa brought you." he said with a wink and chuckle.
I felt my face stretch with the a large smile and rushed quickly to the tree and resting on my knees reaching forward grabbing a large box with red wrapping paper that had my name written on it, I rip the paper apart and the package reveals a new RC Plane.
I swish my head around to show off my new gift only to be met with startling green eyes that were unwavering and focused on me watching my every move.
"Didn't she get presents from Santa Claus dad?" I asked him, even if she was new to the family it was pretty unfair for not to get anything on Christmas day.
"Matter of fact she did get something." My mother grin stretches into a smile and she reaches behind the pillow she was resting on and removes three gifts all wrapped in the same deep blue paper with reindeers flying into the moon on it. Avery's eyes widen at the presents my mom showed her.
"These are for you Avery," mom said wrapping her arm around her waist bringing Avery Closer against her chest resting her chin atop of Avery's head.
Avery Slowly unwrapped the one of the gifts and held up a pink box displaying a bracelet maker, she carefully set to the side on the couch and reached for her second gift. This one immediately bent in half and the paper crinkled letting me know it was clothes. She gently tore the paper off and three shirts fell into her lap, one was light green with a white cats face on the front, another was baby blue and the last one was pink with "Barbie" in cursive scrawled across it. She gently laid them across the bracelet maker and proceeded to open up her last gift. This one was also box shape and she carefully tore wrapping paper off and showed a white box, she lifted the lid and a stuffed purple giraffe with green spots popped out of the small confines of the box, she held it up and stared at the giraffe that was two feet in length she turned her stare at me and caught me staring at her face waiting for a reaction. She then hugged the giraffe to her chest and whispered.
"Thank you." she sniffed and rubbed her tears away with her sleeve but they kept falling.
"Oh, baby girl." my dad said and picked her up from my mom's lap and hugged her to his chest while she tucked her face away from view and cried silently with my mom rubbing her back soothingly.
A random sense of protectiveness settled within me as I realized how delicate and sweet my little sister was. That Christmas day I vowed to love and protect her. I looked up to see one emerald tear filled eye gazing back at me as if sensing my new found commitment.
