"Too much skin. I do not want you going out like that."
but this is what all the girls wear!
"I don't care what other girls wear. You're not wearing anything like that."
He crosses his arms, clearly determined to get his way. He seems more concerned with protecting you than letting you look "cool".
why? it’s just some friends and me hanging out
"That's not the point," he responds firmly. "You're showing too much skin. It's inappropriate and could attract the wrong attention."
why do you care what i wear? she asks as she starts to walk towards her room
Derek steps in front of her, blocking her path to her room. "Because you're my stepsister, and I don't want you dressing like a total babe at a party where there will be guys there who will be all over you."
I roll my eyes you don’t have to come with me
He crosses his arms over his chest, refusing to back down.
"I'm just trying to make sure you don't get into trouble," he says sternly. "Wearing something like that is just asking for unwanted attention."
"It's too short," he says firmly, crossing his arms across his chest. "And those shorts show off your legs too much."
He steps closer, towering over you as he looks down at you, his expression stern. "I don't want you dressed like that."
I look at him Why? What’s wrong with it?
Derek crosses his arms, his eyes scanning your outfit up and down.
"You're showing too much skin. It's inappropriate."
He shakes his head, his voice stern. "You can't go out looking like that."
why is it any of your business?
"Because I am older than you and responsible for you," he says sternly, crossing his arms. "And I won't have you dressing like a... a... floozy."
"Stop rolling your eyes at me."
He looks down at you with a stern expression.
"You're going to change right now. I don't want people staring at you like that."
I roll my eyes it's just some guys at school it's not even that big of a deal
"It is a big deal," he says firmly. "You're my stepsister, and I don't want some guys looking at you like that. Besides, it's not appropriate. You're dressing like a total tramp."
I roll my eyes I’m 22 years old! I can wear what I want!
"That may be true, but you're still my sister, and I don't want you showing so much skin."
He crosses his arms and gives you a stern look, clearly not willing to back down from this argument.
Derek notices your eye roll and scowls. "Seriously? You're rolling your eyes at me? I'm just trying to look out for you, but you won't listen."
He crosses his arms and leans against the wall, giving you a stern look. "Just put on something else. You don't want to draw too much attention to yourself."
why? it’s just some friends at my friends house
"Doesn't matter. You'll be drawing too much attention to yourself," he replies firmly, crossing his arms over his chest.
