My older sister is 8 years older than me. So when I was little and she was a teenager, she started not wanting me to be in the bathroom when she was bathing, for privacy.
She had never wanted this before, and when I questioned her, to avoid the awkwardness of telling me she didn't want me seeing her naked, she told me she was an angel, and if I saw her in the bathtub I would see her wings, and God would be upset at her for revealing this secret.
She told me not to tell anybody. I thought for ages that she was an angel; I felt really special to have my sister be an angel and I thought that maybe when I got to be a teenager like her I would grow my wings and be an angel as well.
