GET OUT RIVER My sister is usually very talkative when she’s with me. She never runs out of stories to tell dahil hindi naman kami araw-araw nagkikita. That’s why I also know when she’s acting unusually. Right now, iyon ang hindi ko mapigilang mapansin sa kanya. I noticed just how unusually quiet Riri was while we were on our way to the party. Aside from that, I’ve noticed how she’s been holding on to her phone the whole day. My forehead knotted when I saw her smile secretly. She must have thought I wasn’t looking pero nang lumingon siya sa akin at maabutang nakatitig sa kanya ay agad napawi ang ngiti niya. Her eyes widened a fraction and agad humigpit ang pagkakahawak sa cellphone. Tumaas ang kilay ko sa kanyang ginawa. “What are you smiling about huh, Anikka Riel?”
