The Question

"Does Sabrina have any brothers or sisters?"
(awkward pause)
"Well, yes, she has a brother and sister in Heaven. They passed away last winter."
(awkward pause)
(condolences)
(change in topic of conversation)
I can never say that I have "just one". It doesn't seem right to not mention the twins just because it's complicated and uncomfortable. But it's complicated and uncomfortable.
