One night after April's bedtime ritual (three stories, a cuddle and a kiss, the bedbug rhyme, lights out), her whisper follows me to the door.

“Are you my sister now, Emily?”

I don't have to give it even a moment's thought. “Sure looks that way, doesn't it?” I reply, smiling in the dark.

“Even if I go back to live with Mommy?” Her little voice is quavering. I flip the light on again and sit on the side of her bed. I look down at her worried little face.

“Here's the way it works,” I say, stroking her hair away from her face. “No matter where you go and what you do, we'll always be sisters. Deal?”

“Deal,” she says as her thumb rises to her mouth and her eyes close.

“Deal,” I say again as I turn out the light and leave the room.
