Le jour où je me suis effondrée et où on m'a diagnostiqué un cancer en phase terminale, c'était notre vingt-deuxième anniversaire, celui de ma sœur jumelle, Julie, et moi. J'ai quitté l'hôpital en ignorant les recommandations des médecins, juste pour passer un dernier anniversaire insouciant avec ma famille. Mais quand je suis arrivée à la fête, le serveur m'a arrêtée à la porte et m'a informée que le lieu avait été réservé pour l'anniversaire de la fille de la famille Thomas et que les étrangers n'étaient pas autorisés à entrer. À travers la vitre, j'ai vu mon frère portant le gâteau, mon père mettant un chapeau d'anniversaire sur Julie, et même mon petit ami, tout sourire, regardant Julie faire un vœu.

Aujourd'hui c'est l'anniversaire de Julie, on en parlera plus tard. » Alors, ce n'était pas aussi mon anniversaire aujourd'hui ?

Les médecins avaient aussi dit que j'avais pris les nutriments de Julie dans le ventre et que cela l'avait rendue fragile depuis son enfance. Tout le monde pensait donc que je devais toujours céder à Julie, née cinq minutes avant moi. J'ai froissé mon diagnostic et je l'ai jeté à la poubelle, décidant de ne plus souffrir de leur favoritisme. Puisque je n'avais jamais reçu leur amour, j'ai choisi de partir pour toujours.

My husband stood by my hospital bed, looking at my broken body with disdain. "Irene, every moment with you makes me sick," he spat, barely able to hide his impatience for my death. Yet, when I finally died, he sobbed uncontrollably in public, playing the role of the devoted, heartbroken husband. "Irene, don't leave me! You have no idea how much I wanted to die with you!" At that, I spoke softly from behind him. "Is that so?"
