“My parents got a divorce when I was six, so I grew up mostly just with my brother and I, and we would change houses every week. Which was sort of hard I think, but it also allowed my brother and I to get really close. I feel like he raised me in a lot of ways… I call my brother, “Brother”, because I did that as a kid. (lots of laughing) I didn’t like calling him Nicholas or Nick, and it just stuck. I love it, I still can’t call him Nick, I try sometimes and it feels weird. People think that it’s just the weirdest thing, his friends will make fun of him and start calling him “Friend”, it’s great. My whole family when they are talking to me and referring to him call him Brother, never Nick or anything like that, it’s great.” -Anna Kallas
