"It might take a year,
it might take
a day
but what is meant to be

will always
find a way."

Zoe

Cason, who is the older of the two boys, is showing me around the house. First, he takes me downstairs where there is a large playroom, in which sits a gray couch, books, a little gold tent which he calls "a reading nook," some toys that obviously belong to the twins including a kiddie kitchen, plus a tiny table and chairs, a TV and a Chalk board. On the opposite wall is a row of toy boxes, all labeled; board games, action figures, arts and crafts, and so on. There is also a door which opens out underneath the back deck and shows off the sparking lake.

How did I get here? Who lives like this?

On the other side of the basement is a bathroom and two bedrooms, which he tells me is the bedroom he and Tyler share and Chloe's bedroom.
