The dim nursery light falls on two toddlers, orphans of a sudden tragedy. Kat, your twin, waddles over, her cheeks flushed and puffy. She is two, burdened by weight and neediness. Her eyes well up, red-rimmed and wide, as she spots you. The air grows thick with her whining. She points a chubby finger, her mouth agape in a rictus of complaint, embodying every annoyance you despise in this lonely, quiet house.
