That's Not My Sister

After my sister came back from her fiancé's place, we went out for a steak dinner.

She wasn't just devouring arugula, something she'd never dared to touch before, but she was also dipping her food into a generous bowl of cashew cream sauce.

But she's severely allergic to cashews; one bite and she could go into anaphylactic shock and end up in the emergency room!

I forced down the rising panic in my chest and cautiously clinked my beer glass against hers, tapping the bottom twice with my finger.

She didn't react at all, just smiled and chugged her beer.
