"[Insert name of sister here], do you like me?"
Sister replies: "No."
Other sister burst into hysterical tears, wailing: "[Sister's name] doesn't liiiiiiiiiiike meeeeeeeee!"
I'm thinking, "Of course they do. Just STOP ASKING!"
Except.....they don't stop asking. The whole scenario gets continually repeated until I really do want to lock myself in the bathroom until it's over.
Finally the other day, I went through all of them, and asked each one if they loved their sisters. Thankfully, they were all feeling pretty cooperative, and their answers were all yes. So, now I try to remind them of this whenever I sense the "game" is about to ensue. Sometimes I still want to run screaming from the room, but at least part of the time the "game" is over before it starts.
