David Sedaris Sister Novels & Stories

"I've been counting days until my son brings you." "Your son?" Caro's jaw dropped. "Caro this is my mother. Edith. And I think you already met Nicole. My younger sister. Not my girlfriend." Davis cleared the air, smiling. Caro stunned. Glaring around, the whole situation was now making sense to her. "Younger sister....oh! that was why she'd the key to your penthouse." Caro added. Everyone laughed whole heartedly, except Caro who's dying in thought.

She was all businesslike. “What kind of person is David?” Cayden asked. “I didn’t interact much with my half siblings. I have 6 sisters and one brother. My dad doted on David for obvious reasons. He was his heir.” Selena said drily. “He was an asshole. Why do they want me there?” “Beats me,” Cayden sighed, “but I want you to do one thing. Try to find out how much David is involved in Hawk’s business. Is there any reason for discord between the father and the son?”

the lady consoled. Overprotective indeed. “Who are you? You here to add salt to my wounds too, 'cause you Smithsons are—“ She cuts me off, “Reid, I am Ashley Reid, Darius’s younger sister,” she corrects, cutting me off guard. “I didn’t know Darius had a sister,” I said, taken aback. She shrugs, handing me a handkerchief. “Here, take it; tears don’t suit you.” I smiled thankfully.

"I don't think we've met." I hold my hand out to the slender man when Trent doesn't move to follow Gavin. "No, I would remember such a meet," he says flirtatiously, "David Darling." He’s handsome enough with his brown hair swept back and deep brown eyes, but there’s something about him making my stomach uncomfortable as I try to figure out what he is. I get the feeling he’s not the predator here. “My sister,” he motions back to where the girl from the masquerade is standing, “Darcia and I are pleased to finally meet you.”

I just didn’t know why. Foreshadowing that a drastic change would come sooner in my sister’s love life, I glanced back at Aris at that time since I knew right from there that he was the one for Drey, and I hoped that he would chase us right away, which he did! Because the last time we visited my sister in Cavite, and before she went to Japan for her commercial photoshoot, all she did was cry over her ridiculous ex-boyfriend. Her eyes were damn swollen, while still attempting to keep everything a secret—always telling us that she was okay—when it was already like a dark smoke ejected from the chimney.

She chugged half a glass of beer and leaned into her friend and whispered something. The girls got up and left the table to go to the bathroom, leaving me and David. "So, David, have any plans tomorrow?" I asked. He held his beer in between his hands and smiled. "Oh, you know, family stuff. My sister is flying back tonight from Columbia University." "Oh! How nice," I said cheerfully. "Are you close?" David nodded. "We're twins, so it's kind of what happens." "Wow," I said, feigning fascination. "I bet you're eager to see her, huh?"

“Damn, Irina, I guarantee you, I will own that moment so much, you'd think he's the bride!” And, then, hysterical laughter rang out. The two ladies were Anna and Irina Sabalenka, blood siblings, and they were riding in Anna's black Corvette, on their way to pick up Anna's wedding gown for her impending wedding to her childhood sweetheart, Neo McKinney. Irina, the younger sister, was billed to be the chief bridesmaid, and the excitement in the two ladies’ hearts was evident. “Seriously, though, it would be the happiest day of my life, Irina.. I almost can't believe that it's actually happening,” Anna continued, “I almost have to pinch myself.”

‘’Seems like I have to show more of my talent to you as you do not seem to be understanding me very well,’’ he replied smirking and following her. ‘’Where is he right now?’’ David asked after calling someone on his phone and talking with him for a while as he seemed to be asking for someone’s information. ‘’You are lucky he is in his company branch today. We should get there and see how far we can get with all of this.’’ David said everything to Ciara while she smiled back at him, and both got into David’s car while waiting to get there as soon as possible. ‘’She never told me about her sister. So, what type of person you are my taming possession.’’ David spoke looking at her interestingly.

Loo‍ks​ do⁠wn at her with abs‍olut​e wonde‍r. “Hi, Kiya,” he whis⁠p‌ers. “I⁠’m your big brother David. You have two o​ther sist​ers—Amara and​ Zara​—who are goi‌ng to be so ex⁠cite‌d to meet y‌ou. And⁠ you have another sister​—Ayana—who isn’t here​ an⁠ymore. But she would hav⁠e lov⁠ed you​. She wa‌s perfect at being a big sister.” I’m crying ag‌a‌in. Can’t‍ stop crying.

"Fine. I'll apologize." Thousands of viewers flooded the livestream in seconds. I took a deep breath. My voice was shaking. "My name is Jennifer Rocher. I admit here and now that I have harmed my daughter, Ellie, as well as Lydia Winston. I sincerely apologize to both of them." Lydia dabbed at her dry eyes. "Jennifer, I don't blame you. I will raise Ellie well. Harvey says she looks just like me. Maybe that's fate—maybe we were always meant to be mother and daughter."
