The twins disappeared at daycare.
Teni almost collapsed.
They were gone for 2 hours before being found in a car — asleep and unharmed.
But a note was on their lap.
> "We returned them this time. Next time, we won't."
That night, Teni and Dami sat side by side, silent.
They were no longer just lovers.
Not even just husband and wife.
They were warriors in a story far deeper than they thought.
