“YOU can use this,” said Inciang, smiling brightly and trying to keep her tears back. “It is still quite strong, and you will not outgrow if for a year yet.”
Itong watched his sister fold his old khaki shirt carefully and pack it into the rattan tampipi, which already bulged with his clothes. He stood helplessly by, shifting his weight from one bare foot to the other, looking down at his big sister, who had always done everything for him.
