Coming out of the graduation ceremony venue and seeing his sister already outside, waiting for him with a smile on her face, as if to say, "I caught you," Christian didn't feel awkward at all.
It felt natural that she knew him well enough to predict his actions, which also spared him the need to search for her. So, as he walked toward her side, he simply called out to her, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
"Sis."
But when he noticed the flower bouquet in her hands, Christian couldn't help but wonder when she had found the time to buy and bring it. The thought lingered in his mind as he approached her, curious but not surprised by her thoughtful gesture.
