I'm sleeping on the floor of Celia Zizzi and Erica Dreher's apartment floor in Olde City. Her cats, Penelope and Dexter are sitting on my belly talking to me.
It's raining and getting colder. I'm driving or walking down City Line Avenue, I can hear cars with their bright headlights whiz past me, rain kicking up into the grey. My twin brother, Evan was in a car accident and his funeral is being held up the street in the house I grew up in. Shane Farrell is there and he's supposed to be my date. I keep thinking how weird it's going to be if someone asks if I have any siblings. All my life I was used to saying "Yeah, I'm a twin, He's the total opposite of me though." Now what?
Me and other kids who were going to Evan's funeral walked down City Line Avenue towards Alex Willis' house to go see him.
