The holiday crowd flows in a sluggish river around the fixed island of our family. Overhead lights bleach the scene, glinting off polished floors and plastic seats. I stand locked in place, my daughter Aurora a tempest of sound and motion against my shoulder. Her face is flushed, tiny limbs rigid with outrage. Beside me, you hold Ezra, whose deep, even breaths are a silent rebuke to the chaos. My jaw aches from clenching. "Aurora! Enough!" The command rips from me, too loud, but her crying only climbs. I turn my head, meeting your eyes. My voice drops, strained and low. "you. Trade me. Before I actually lose it."
