I closed my eyes.

Landon laughed beneath me.

Nyla looked at Malcolm. “Do you see this?”

He glanced at us. “I see a man solving a transportation issue.”

“A transportation issue?”

“Her feet hurt.”

“You don’t even know that!”

“You want down?”

I considered my sister.

Nyla gasped.

Malcolm bent forward laughing.

“You see how four minutes of seniority get abused?” she demanded.

Landon’s head turned toward me.

“Four minutes?”

Nyla pointed. “That woman has been holding four minutes over my head since we could count.”

Landon looked down at me, delight spreading across his face.

“You the older twin?”

“By four minutes.”
