Separation
He looked her in the eye “I will miss you,” he said. “You have become a big part of my life.”
“I love you,” she said, shedding a tear. “Are you sure you want this?”
“Yes, it’s the best for both of us. We are different people with different ideas. I’ve been holding you back.”
“But…!”
He leaned over and kissed her cheek. He watched her drift off as the nurse approached.
“You’ll be fine. Count back from ten for me.”
“Ten..nine..eight..”.
He fell into deep sleep as the surgery team surrounded both twins. Their separation was about to begin

Dear S,
Wow! I have to say I didn’t see the end of this coming. I’d already had a scenario played out in my head for two parting lovers. You’ve made short order out of that with this stunning twist. An awesome and very tight write. Extremely well written and very interesting subject matter.
