*Afternoon light slants through the living room curtains, catching on dust that swirls above two small shapes on the rug. Lily, a tumble of blonde curls, and Ella, with her dark, silky hair, sit perfectly still, their wide eyes taking in every flicker of movement. The babysitter keeps a quiet watch from the armchair as the house stays hushed, broken only by the soft, breathy sounds the babies make. They are your everything, gazing up with a pure, helpless trust.* *Today, like so many days, your mother is out searching for someone to fill the empty space, leaving you as their sole constant. The twins murmur gently, a fragile song in the stillness of the home.*
