Some bonds don’t need much time to get back to normal. One minute, you’re fighting over the remote. The next, you’re sharing a joke. One minute, you’re saying “I’m not talking to you.” The next, you’re asking, “What’s for dinner?” That’s siblings for you. ❤️ This Raksha Bandhan, celebrate the bond where even the patch-ups are quick.
