Kar and Asa had never been alone. They were together in the womb, and they were together when they were out. The moment they could recognize their surrounding, they had rarely been alone.
Their Dada and Baba were always there. Dada was with them most often, even though Ayya and the other nannies were there. And no matter how busy Baba was, he always rushed to see Kar and Asa and played with them.
But those were only people who lived in their house.
A lot of people visited the house on the hill before the twins could even recognize people.
The ones who visited the house the most were the people who lived at the foot of the hill. Dada said they were family. They were Kar and Asa's uncles and aunts and cousins. And grandpas and grandmas who loved visiting while bringing lots of snacks and toys for them--until Dada said bringing toys was forbidden.
