“..did you think I didn’t know?”

🥺🥺🥺

Am still grieving over the loss of my only brother; I wish we were even a little close, the death of our mother separated us and we grew apart, I miss our younger age he really took care of me. Go we brother the world is lonely without you. I'll always love you.

[kiwixoxo]

Awww this was so nice. You can tell she holds alot within herself thinking that she has to be strong not knowing that her sister already has that covered for her. They really have a special bond that we cannot fathom to measure, this was so profound and pure it was nice to witness this thru the eyes of siblings. This is nothing short of love ❤

[sapphiiee]

That ending almost got me 🥲 the way she whispers 'I just love you so much' and her going 'I know', followed by the chuckles and the eye roll haha! So precious ❤

[EbonyBomani]

Ok, so I’m a mess after watching this. The end was the extra gut punch! 😭😭😭

[ekaterina]

'You don't need me to be you...' I truly believe that that's the best answer for this question I've ever heard being subscribed to this channel 😔

[henanjoof]

As the older sibling to a sister and brother that i adore...I completely identified with and felt seen and mirrored by the older sister in this conversation. The love and care is felt. The way they look at each other and the gentleness with which they hold each others emotions...their sisterhood is GOAL

[karinhenson]

We all should dream of having a sister like these two women.

[TaurusChanel]

This made me cry. I'm the oldest sister of 4 and wish I could have this kind of relationship with my siblings but we weren't raised to be super close. I feel a little resentful as the oldest that I feel I always have to extend the Olive Branch to try to get closer, but videos like this remind me it can be worth the sacrifice. ❤ Beautiful Black sister bond.

As you watch Skin Deep videos, your emotions feel free. The raw and authentic express of love shared throughout the few minutes you share with these strangers virtually is a beautiful feeling to understand.

[latoyachambliss]

This was such a beautiful exchange between siblings!

[erikacain]

This is so beautiful to see! My sister and I are close like this and we can literally sense each other's state of mind

[newstartalltheway]

What a blessing to feel like your family is witnessing and supporting your growth. I so wish I had that feeling from my family. It only makes life harder when you can't express yourself and what you're going through with those closest to you. I hope everyone gets to experience the supportive love these two seem to have for each other.

[j.cutrone]

This is exactly how I feel about my sister. I loved this 💙

[anitasewell]

These two are gorgeous to watch, the love they have is beautiful❤

[karenrn]

Gosh, they reminded me of my youngest and oldest. They have a special bond like that. The youngest always says she’s “Moms favorite” however, I dislike all of my children equally!! 😂

[fatboytrissy]

beautiful conversation from two BEAUTIFUL and STRONG ladies.

[constancemuller]

Loved hearing your conversation, thank you for sharing. You are two beautiful souls. Constance

[deilugo]

This is what I love seeing on this channel. 😍

[Nyanchama_]

It's cute how they have similar teeth 😍❤
