Manuela: Are you out of your actual mind?

Eden: Shall I go first?

Manuela: You shall not. Faith, stop being so… so Faith.

Faith: There is a system to my madness, sis.

Manuela: We don’t need introductions, Fee, especially not for a chat.

Faith: Please? For me?

Manuela: Don’t be a baby, Manu. We know our own freaking names. And the… rest of it, you know?

Eden: We do know.

Faith: I just think it bears repeating.

Faith: …

Faith: Also, I haven’t had enough of saying it.

Eden: Well, I haven’t had enough of hearing it.

Manuela: Fine, fine, let’s do it then.

Manuela: Fee, you go first.

Faith: I’m Faith and I’m your sister.

Manuela: I’m Manuela and I’m your sister.

Eden: I’m Eden and I’m your sister.

Faith: Phew.

Manuela: Ok, so that’s done. We did that.

Eden: Somehow it did not feel awkward though, right?

Eden: For me, it still felt as good as the first time.

Faith: If not better.

Manuela: How are you, En?

Eden: Fine. I’m good actually. Can I ask something?

Manuela: Anything.

Eden: Can we do this every once in a while?

Manuela: Do what?

Eden: Remind ourselves that we are sisters? Remind me?

Faith: Dammit, Eden, you’ll make me cry and it’s not even ten in the morning.

Manuela: We definitely can. It will be our ritual. Our thing.
