A furious ball of fists failing and shouting rolled past my office. “It’s mine!” “Let me go!” “I’m telling!” Echoed down the hall while I tried to finish a phone interview. I had to call it short when I heard my mother’s voice join in the cacophony.
“Boys, upstairs now.”
“He started it!” Simon and Monty said together. There was a hint of blood coming from Simon’s nose.
“I don’t care.” I looked at my mother. “I thought it would be easier with them closer in age.”
“It doesn’t matter how old they are or the years between brothers, Nathan.”
