CHARLEEN: Why is there a sewing machine on the balcony?

Catholic glances at me quickly before exiting the kitchen.

ETHOS: Oh. Catholic is sewing.

CHARLEEN: What’s she sewing?

ETHOS: Tiny outfits. Little ones, you know.

CHARLEEN: This is very good news! Grandchildren! But she doesn’t seem like she’s with child.

ETHOS: Mother, the outfits are for the fish. The fish tank.

CHARLEEN: But they could be for children too?

ETHOS: No, Mother. Not ever again.

CHARLEEN: Oh, but she’s young. Her child-rearing days are not over!

ETHOS: She had her tubes tied.

I am appalled. So my fear of our lineage ending is becoming a reality. But there is hope for us.

CHARLEEN: There are plenty of fields you can harvest. Why do you even try in a barren one? Time for a new wife.
