there were twins. On the day Gisselle and I were born,

my grandmere Catherine kept me when my grandpere

Jack took the first baby, Gisselle, out to the limousine

where your family was waiting."

"Great story," Lyle said with a wry smile on his

face.

"It's true!" I snapped at him, and then turned

back to Uncle Jean. "Daphne, Daddy's wife, resents

me, Uncle Jean. She's been very cruel to me ever

since I arrived. She told me she was bringing me here

to see you but secretly she made arrangements with

Dr. Cheryl and his staff to keep me here for

observation and evaluation. She's doing everything

she can to get rid of me. She's--"

"Aaaaa,"Uncle Jean cried. I stopped, my heart pounding. Was he about to scream and pound his

dish?

"Easy," Lyle warned. "You're going too fast for

him."

"I'm sorry, Uncle Jean," I said. "But I wanted to

see you and tell you how much Daddy suffers because

you're in here. He's so sick with grief, he cries in your

room often and in fact, he's been so upset recently, he

couldn't come to see you on your birthday."

"His birthday? This isn't his birthday," Lyle

said. "They make a big deal over everyone's birthday

here. His isn't for another month."

"It doesn't surprise me. Daphne simply lied to

get me to come along with her. I would have anyway,

Uncle Jean," I said, turning back to him. "I wanted to

see you very much."
