Dear Sadvi,
I'm really sorry to hear about your sister's situation. I guess that's just life and things happens. In my opinion there are three ways to approach this issue.
a. If your sister had never mentioned you while applying for a visa(which cant be done now of course) they would by no means be able to figure out that you are in the US. If she didn't had put your name down in terms of any brothers or sisters and got some documents such as "relation certificate" from Wada stating that she is the only child then case would have been simpler. She should have been fine. But now if you change thing in your application again she would get busted.
b.The people in the embassy need strong ties to your home country. Nothing creates more ties then an intimate relationship. Show that you sister is engaged with someone(unknown) Thats good enough for them. Then thats a more stronger ties then anything else beside marriage of course. But just make sure her fiance is educated and has a decent job etc. (looking at the situation this is the best option)
c. Another thing you can do is yes re-apply like people mentioned above. Don't change anything in your documents. Demonstrate your strong ties to the nation for example get a job offer confirming letter with a good pay by a employer upon graduation (i don't know what's your sister's major???) or have several properties under your name listed. Explain them that you have never been anywhere away from home and have always been with your parents and would do anything to make them happy etc.... Tell them that i made a harsh decision and i would be leaving my parents but you did that in order to gain quality education which is not in your country, and since your parents are paying for it you would like to come back and take the job that you have been offered and help your parents. etc etc etc (the bottom line is your sister needs to run her mouth) if she act all innocent and says "yes" or "no" then don't even bother to apply again.
Best Wishes,
