"It means everyone walks on eggshells around her."

"Thought about what?"

She exhaled hard.

"How ridiculous all of this has become."

Thomas stepped closer.

"What does that mean?"

"Nobody can mention babies."

"It means everyone walks on eggshells around her."

She pointed at me.

"Nobody can mention babies. Nobody can joke without checking her face."

My sister said, "She's grieving."
