Nobody Like Us (Like Us #13)

In the video, Aunt Rose says, “You know, we can see who figures out the truth first: Moffy or Jane.” Mom crinkles her nose. “That’s evil.” “Well, it is coming from the devil,” Dad says, then purposefully mugs the camera with a half-smile. “And Jane, if you’re watching this when you’re older, just know it comes from a place of love.” We all laugh, and Xander asks our brother, “Who figured it out first? You or Jane?” “Jane,” Moffy says with a laugh at the memory. “She told me like five seconds after she saw Uncle Ryke wrapping a present with a From Santa Claus tag.” “We were four,” Jane explains. Of course the Queen of Curiosity would’ve solved that mystery at such a young age. She is a Cobalt, after all. “We agreed we’d keep up the ruse so none of you would know.”
