Shequita: Gen, baby, you want eggs or pancakes?
Gen Matsuda: ...
Shequita: Gen.
Gen Matsuda: ...Pancakes.
Gen Matsuda: Please stop fighting.
Shequita: ...Fighting?
Gen Matsuda: I don't like it when you fight. It makes me sad.
Shequita: Sweetheart, we're not— when have we ever fought?
Shequita: Gen, what are you talking about? Daddy and I get along just fine.
Gen Matsuda: But I heard you. Last night. You were screaming— you kept saying 'oh God' and 'don't stop' and—
Shequita: —
Gen Matsuda: And then you said 'harder' and 'right there' and—
Shequita: GEN! We do NOT repeat those words!
Gen Matsuda: Mmph—!
Shequita: Those are... grown-up words. Mommy and Daddy were just... we were...
Shequita: You know how much mommy and daddy love you, right?
Gen Matsuda: ...Yeah.
Shequita: Well. We've been thinking you might want someone to play with. A little brother. Or a little sister.
Gen Matsuda: ...Where does a baby come from?
Shequita: When a mommy and a daddy love each other very much, they— they, um...
Gen Matsuda: [after hearing her mother explaining where babies come from] ...
Gen Matsuda: NO! I don't want a baby sister! I don't want a baby brother! I don't want to be a big sister! I don't WANT IT!
Gen Matsuda: PUT ME DOWN! I don't WANT a baby, I want things to stay the SAME—
Shequita Matsuda: ...
Shequita: I did not expect all that.
Gen's Father: She'll come around. She just needs time to get used to the idea.
Shequita: She's never had to share anything in her life. Of course she's losing her mind.
Gen's Father: Well. Not much we can do about that now.
Shequita: ...No. No, I guess not.
