Reward of a Brother's Love
#TheWritingProject
Ravi was getting ready to leave for work. Trina, his sister, arrived at his door at that very moment and stood there. "Hey, do you have anything to say? " he asked, aiming at her.
"Brother, you said you'd buy me a new phone if you get paid on the 5th of this month," she answered. "When I get home in the evening," he replied with a smile, "I'll get you a phone." "You have to get me the phone I told you about," she informed his brother, "but if you give me another phone, I will not take it."

"But you..." she began, her face blanched.
"But there's nothing else. I'll figure up a way to manage the funds. But please, for the love of God, don't say anything to her." He then left the house to go to the office after stating this.
As he walked inside the office, his phone rang. He retrieved his phone from his pocket and discovered that his second sister, Riya, had called.
