Monica

"Listen,I swear I didn't go to the police.I wouldn't do that after you told me you didn't want them to look into you"

"Why would detective James lie?"

"I don't know, maybe he's trying to play us against each other"

"And how did he know about that stuff?"

"Did he actually tell you what I said or did you assume I told him about it"

"Well..he said you hired someone and that you think I'm being framed.Come to think of it I'm the one who brought up the connection we have to the case"

"You see,he probably knew that if he pretended to know already,you'd tell him everything "

"I guess so"

"I'm making lunch,drap a bottle of wine  over there"

"So are we just going to drink and eat as if we're all good?"

"Yes,I thought we could also catch up..its been awhile"

"I'm aware"

"Sarah,listen I'm sorry.After what you did I needed some time to myself.I wanted to be more than just you're twin.But I'm here now,and I've missed you."

"No,I'm being childish.You have nothing to apologize for.Im sorry,I shouldn't have done that.I just admired you.A little too much I guess..."

As we eat and drink,I realized how much I missed this.

"You,admire me?give me a break.you're the super star"

Today has made me realize or at least remember how much I love and trust my sister.I couldn't help telling her about Ben and how I haven't been myself with him.

"Monica,dont be silly,he loves you.Hes never met me.Just because you did things you I thought I would do doesn't mean that you became me.Youve always been brave,you just couldn't see it.I guess we've both been living in each other's shadows."

"You should spend the night"

"I'd love to but I have Miles and I jus.."

"Bring him over,I don't mind"

"Really?you hate kids."

"First of all hate is a strong word..I just admire them from a distance.Plus,he's one of us now,I'd like to meet him"

"Look at us,bonding.Mom would be proud.I love you"

"I love you too,.sister"
