Summary
"—Can you marry my brother?" A puppyish girl with twin, low, golden-blonde pigtails and denim overalls asks, abrupt and innocent. She's braiding a plastic, pink clip of fake hair she'd put on him. "He really, really, really likes boy bunnies. He has a magazine full of them under his bed, but he's glued the pages shut. He doesn't like to talk about it, though. Tsk, tsk."
Will's mouth falls open in a quiet, full belly-laugh, completely taken aback by her sincerity and youth-bred oblivion. He's well aware of how direct kids can be—he'd taken care of them at an after-school program all throughout middle-school at a place right near his mom's old job in Lenora,but that's besides the point. No one that young has ever been so direct as to propose a prospect of marriage right to his face.
