"No," Greta quietly agrees. Caring for twins wouldn't be easy even without the painful reminder of what she's lost. "But they are very sweet," she adds with stubborn optimism. Whatever ROMAC's motivations for asking her to look after them, it's certainly not the children's fault. So long as they're in her care, they'll get the best care she can offer them, untainted by bitterness or regret or the general suspicion she now holds toward her supposed benefactors.

That's a concerning theory, and Greta looks up at Iman with a pensive frown. "Like they're keeping me busy on purpose? So I can't help you?" Well, they must know she and Iman are friends; it was never a secret, and if they knew about everyone's curses, they must be keeping a close eye on everyone. Maybe it's just as well she's always scrambling after her new charges, then. She might have been inclined to check up on Iman, otherwise. She might have been followed. Ugh, what a mess.
