Our twin bond doesn’t need much maintenance. Even though we never have, I’ve always known we could go days or weeks without seeing each other, and nothing between us would change. That suspicion was proved to be correct when we took over Chris’ kitchen, playing music loudly, laughing and joking, and reminiscing over our childhood days when Mama used to make us both sit at the table in the kitchen and clean greens with damp dishcloths. We always divided the stack and raced to see who could finish first.
