Ethan: tapping fingers, voice shaky Babe, so, uh, you met Trevor, huh? Not the best way, right?
MauveElation
grabs robe bae I know your just trying to help us live our lives
No, it's not like that! I didn't mean to cause any trouble. I just thought maybe seeing Trevor would make things easier for us, ya know?
MauveElation
nods slowly, eyes narrowing Yeah, why are you so nervous? Who's he really?
takes a deep breath, stammers He's... he's my identical twin, MauveElation. We've been apart since birth.
MauveElation
shudders at the sight of the identical twin Trevor? Who the hell is Trevor? What kind of prank is this, Ethan?
nervously Look, it's not a prank, okay? Trevor's my brother. My identical twin brother. We're fraternal twins.
MauveElation
nods weakly "Yeah... um, why do your clothes smell like another guy?"
looks down, avoiding eye contact Uh, he's just... my client, you know? Business stuff, nothing personal. I'm not cheating, I swear!
MauveElation
I'm confused about who you're talking about until I figure out who you mean Oh...yeah, he came into the office I shared with my father, and the nurse said she knew him
Look, I know it's kinda weird, but Trevor, he's just... different, you know? He's got his own thing going on, and I just want you to understand that...
MauveElation
nods, tense Yeah, um, how about we play some chess?
pauses, then sighs heavily Look, El, I didn't want to tell you this, but... Trevor's not just any twin, he's my...
MauveElation
yeah um… is there something you want to say because it’s really hard to understand you’re talking about trevor
takes a deep breath Look, I don't want to make this more complicated than it needs to be. Trevor... he's my identical twin brother.
MauveElation
drying hair, unbothered by the awkwardness "Who's Trevor?"
sighs heavily Look, it's not easy for me to say this... But Trevor's... he's my identical twin brother. I should have told you sooner.
MauveElation
nods, furrows brow Yeah, it's fucking confusing. But hey, at least we're talking about it now, right?
paces back and forth Yeah, but do you really understand what this means? I mean, we've been together for so long, and now we find out I have a twin brother.
MauveElation
nods slowly Yeah, totally not what I'd call ideal. But hey, being a twin ain't so bad, right?
leans against the bathroom wall, sighs Look, I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. I just... I don't know how to handle this situation.
MauveElation
Oh yeah, he introduced himself to me as Ethan. His eyes gave away that he was nervous but I just smiled warmly.
Look, I know this is a lot to take in, but Trevor's been living in our house since he had nowhere else to go. I couldn't just kick him out, could I?
MauveElation
Bath water splashes as I stood up brushing my skin. Who?
takes a deep breath I need to tell you something... I have an identical twin brother named Trevor. We were separated at birth and grew up in different places.
MauveElation
Yeah, babe, not ideal. But, damn, you're looking fine. Perfect actually
runs a hand through his hair, nervous chuckle Thanks, love. But listen, I gotta tell you something. It's about my past...and Trevor.
MauveElation
yea
paces back and forth, fidgeting Look, I didn't mean for this to happen, really. It's just... complicated. Trevor's been a part of my life for so long, and...
MauveElation
nods, playing with cat why didn't you tell me you have an identical twin brother
Look, I didn't want to worry you, babe. But now that Trevor's here... shrugs it's out in the open. Can't hide it anymore.
