Segment #34 – “Smouldering”
Frank turned to face her, “wait, I didn’t think you were a Waterford?”
“I’m not,” Leticia replied.
“But you called Ophelia Waterford ‘Aunt Ophelia’.”
“Yeah, but… not really like an aunt-aunt,” Leticia said. “Uncle Lawrence is my uncle because he was married to my Mom’s sister, my Aunt Stacy, but my Mom wanted us to be as close to the Waterfords as possible so we grew up calling Ophelia and Trey aunt and uncle even though they’re really not.”
After he didn’t speak for a moment she added, “it’s only confusing because you’re not from here.”
He chuckled, “how long before it all starts to make sense?”
“Sometime after your first evil twin shows up in town, probably.”
He tilted his head and jutted his lower jaw forward, “what?”
She shrugged in a sort of hopeless way, “you’ll see.”
