My body matured faster than most girls my age When I turned 18, my overprotective brother

A birthday should have felt ordinary. Mine started with my brother quietly locking the front door. My body had matured faster than most girls my age. When I turned 18, my overprotective brother began treating every silence like a warning, every glance from a stranger like proof of something. He kept folding my jacket over the back of my chair before I could reach it. I didn't question it at first. Then something changed in the way he looked at the empty seat beside me. No one argued. No one explained. My body, my eighteenth birthday, and my brother's careful distance slowly became the center of every quiet room. Looking back, I sometimes wonder which moment truly changed us, though no one has ever said it out loud.
