Jellybeans

The silver jellybeans I wore were the toy. These shoes caused jealousy from my brother. Just as the lemon twist did from the other. Beside the house, he walked in my jellybeans. My mother watched not saying anything. The other brother took my lemon twist. _______________________________________| Penned on May 06, 2014!

As a child I too would covet what my brother and sister received, it always felt like theirs was somehow better. I enjoyed your little story.
