- >”I bet you are wondering why I brought all of you here today...” Liby says as addresses her ‘cousins’.
- >”Not really, you promised us some cake if we listened to you ramble on for an hour.” Lupa says from her perch on a lime-green beanbag chair.
- >”No, why- not how.” Libby says.
- >”I really like chocolate cake and we walk home from school together.” Lemy says as he raises his hand.
- >”See? Lemy likes chocolate.” Lupa says.
- >”Ugh, can I continue?”
- >”I don’t see why not.”
- >”What I have to share with you today is-“ Liby unrolls a poster and tapes it as quickly as she can. “Conspiracy!”
- >Lacy gasps. Lupa looks incredulously. Lemy is bored.
- >”That’s right, Lacy! Conspiracy!”
- >Lacy gasps again.
- >”You don’t have to do it every time.” Lupa says to Lacy.
- >”It’s fun, Lupa. And it makes Liby feel valued. Go on, Liby.” Lacy says with a smile.

- >”What’re you getting at, Liby?” Lupa questions

- >”So? It’s just a coincidence.”
- >”Oh, right, it’s a coincidence that 12 cousins are all born equidistant from each other. What are ya, blind!? This is planned! A conspiracy by our mothers!”
- >”First, Lacy and I are born a week apart.” Lupa says. “And second, to what end? What would they gain?”
- >”I don’t know, Lupa. But, I do know one thing, they know who our dad is, for sure!” An alarm clock can be heard.
- >”That cake better be good.” Lupa says as she ends the alarm.
- >”I want to believe...” Liby says as her cousins leave the room.
