My Sister’s Friend’s Secret Visit

My sister’s friend texted me something she was never supposed to admit. My sister was out

all night at a party. I stayed home, playing games, minding my business. Around midnight,

my phone buzzed. It was my sister’s friend. “Can you open the door?”

I froze. I asked why she wasn’t with my sister. She replied, “She ditched me.”

I hesitated… then unlocked the door. She walked in like nothing was wrong. Too calm.

Too confident. She sat next to me on the couch and said, “Your sister doesn’t

need to know I was here.” That’s when I got uncomfortable. She started laughing…

asking if I ever thought about what it would be like if things were different. Different families.
