WARNING! This story is that of a Romance between Brother and Sister. There is very little sex mentioned. That which is would not be considered as 'erotic'. Should this type of tale not be to your taste then I hope you shall consider reading some of my other efforts. Many thanks Wirdsmiff
"Joanne!" I called out loudly.
I had spotted her instantly, the very image of her Mother. Tall, elegant, composed. Her Mother had worn her hair in a high ponytail with a small ruck-sac on her back which enhanced her beautiful breasts. The tight T did nothing to detract from the perfect image. The short skirt was not too short so as to look slutty but short enough to make a very good job of showing off her long, toned legs. Long white socks and sensible travelling shoes rounded off her outfit perfectly.
There were two major differences between Mother and Daughter; the Daughter now wore a computer bag on her back and the other? I had kissed, hugged and waved as my 18 year old Sister walked off into the Departures Lounge to catch a flight to Berlin, to study and, subsequently, build a new life. 25 years later her 18 year old Daughter was arriving, from Berlin. She's to study at the University a few miles from my home.
"Uncle Jonathon!" came the happy cry as my Niece located the sound of my voice, recognised me instantly and headed my way followed by, "Excuse me. May I get past please? Oops sorry," as she pushed her laden baggage trolley across the natural flow of the arriving passengers.
"Uncle Jonathon!"
She threw her arms around my neck and pulled me in tight for a big hug and an enormous, sensuous, long kiss. I held her as tightly. Eventually we eased apart and I'm certain sure those nearby had the very strong impression that the 'Uncle' bit was simply for public consumption.
"That's from Mum," she grinned delightedly, "Make sure you give Uncle Jonathon a big, proper kiss and the best ever hug and say 'I love you' from me. So, Uncle Jonathon 'I love you' and... so does my Mum!" she giggled delightedly.
"And I love you Joanne... and your Mum. Tell her 'Thank You' from me when you call her to say you've arrived safe and sound."
"I already did," she chuckled.
"You've already told her that I said, 'tell her, thank you'?
"No silly! I've already told her 'Thank You' for telling me to 'Make sure you give Uncle Jonathon a big, proper kiss and the best ever hug and say 'I love you'. I've told her I'm here and I'll tell her you said to thank her once we're at yours."
"Little Minx!" I laughed.
"And don't you just love it?" she whispered in my ear as she gave me a soft kiss on my cheek, "I love you Uncle Jonathon." she added quietly but firmly as we parted for the second time...

I'm 10 years older than my Sister. When I drove her to the Airport I was already married to Kate and had a 9, nearly 10 year old son, Joseph. Kate was already pregnant when we married. My parents were delighted to have a Grandson but less delighted about the circumstances. It had been a quick and simple service as required by the circumstances.
Sandra doted on her little Nephew but could not get on with her new Sister-in-law one little bit. She visited only when I was home, as did my Parents. I worked away a great deal of the time. When Kate decided she wanted to return to work and that Joseph would attend a full time nursery school my Parents instantly stepped in with an offer to look after him. I accepted without hesitation. Kate was happy in the certain knowledge that he would be very well cared for. She was possibly uncomfortable with the fact that her Son would most certainly be instilled with the family ethics of 'hard work', family, 'doing one's best' and keeping 'one's word'. Kate always seemed able to do the minimum required in each of those traits, unless it was for her own benefit.
As they say, fuck in haste, regret at leisure.

My Parents were happy, my Sister was happy, my Son was very happy and my wife seemed much more cheerful. With everybody at home happy I continued to work hard and build my reputation as a 'safe pair of hands' in the industry. As my Sister grew older we became closer and closer until it was closer than siblings should really be. I started to spend more 'at home' time with my Parents, Son and
Sister
than I did with my wife. Whilst my wife made no comments one way or another and nothing actually happened between my Sister and I the internal pressures for both Sandra and I were enormous.
By the time she was eighteen Sandra was stunningly attractive in every sense of the word. Beautiful, intelligent, entertaining and caring. What more could a guy ask? Simple -- please don't be my Sister!
Sandra had inherited our Mother's gift for languages. Somehow she managed to pick them up easily and was acceptably fluent in a few short months. I had inherited my Father's business acumen and drive.
My Sister and I decided that there was little chance of a future for 'us'. I was married, she wasn't and our Parents would never consent to an incestuous relationship even if I were single. We decided that it was best for everybody concerned that we were not together... as far apart as possible.
She found a perfect post for herself in Berlin. Even I had to agree that the job might have been created especially for her. She applied and got the job. She would move to Berlin and, ultimately, built a new life for herself. I would fill my mind with work hoping to leave little space for thoughts of the love of my life.
It was very carefully planned. Joseph was going on a school trip to Paris. My wife was going to Benidorm with a few friends, each to his/her own. I was off to Malta on a short contract. I'd asked my wife if she'd like to accompany me for a couple of weeks. She preferred Benidorm. The idea was that Joseph didn't end up sobbing his heart out as he watched as his Aunt walked out of his life, even if he didn't realise it.
Everything went like clockwork. We told Joseph that Sandra had got an exciting new job in another country. He was ten and knew about exciting jobs in other countries, he'd grown up with me away most of his life and his Grandparents looking after him most of the time. In the early days Grandma was often on her own while Grandpa was also away. Joseph was already taking an interest in following in mine and his Grandfather's footsteps.
Aunty Sandy and he said their goodbyes before he left for Paris.
My wife left in a taxi to meet her friends, at the Airport, the day after our Son left. I flew to Norway for three days to present my data to my clients. I returned on the Friday afternoon and got in the way while my Sister packed. Early the next morning I drove the love of my life to the airport for her early morning flight. We kissed and cuddled until the very last minute. I watched as she walk out of my life forever.
I sobbed hard enough for both Joseph and myself all the way home. I showered, composed myself, rang my parents to be told Sandra was airborne and made a second call for a taxi. The taxi dropped me at the same Airport and the same terminal where I had said goodbye to my beloved Sister earlier that same day. I didn't rush to enter the building, it held bad memories. I checked my baggage and headed for South Terminal to kill some time before I had to go to the Departure Lounge. It was crazy, she would have landed in Berlin before I even left home for the second time that day.
She rang Mother now and then sending her love to me. I sent mine back, via my Mother and the next call. We didn't communicate personally. No plans were ever made to meet nor visit.

From an early age Joseph had been excited about the work my Father and I did, as I had been at his age. We'd both spend hours explaining what we did and how tedious it really was but, as it was with me, he wasn't swayed. We started to show him what we did and how to do it. It didn't faze him and he grasped the concept quickly.
He was 16 and on a long planned, extended trip to Scandinavia when his Grandfather died. It was known it was going to happen, soon. Dad said that Joseph should still go on the trip and fill his head with good memories rather than sad ones. They said their goodbyes and Joseph left. Dad died two days later.
I had also said my goodbyes as a big contract was offered in deep and darkest China it was going to run at least 6 months. 'My memory will last forever, Son. Our business will continue to grow, if you don't take your eye off the ball. I accepted the contract with a heavy heart. If I'd not then I know my Dad wouldn't have been a happy man when he passed.

She came home for our Father's funeral. My wife didn't attend, there was no love lost between my wife and my parents. Mum and my Sister said the final goodbyes for Joseph and I. She would stay a few days to make sure Mum was alright before returning to Berlin. Mum rang me at my hotel to tell me 'it was done'.
"Your Sister is here, would you like to say hello?"
Our Mother thought that we had had a massive falling out and that the exchange of 'Sends Love' messages were just us acknowledging our family bond. I heard the phone change hands.
"Hello Darling, Love you!"
