T4 (The "Twin" Final Chapter) (6S)

David and Donnie Gemelli’s mom, Camille, taught them to always stick together and to stick up for one another. When Delores Marconi’s boy, Jimmy, rolled away on David’s big wheel, it was Camille who sent her oldest, Donnie, careening (football style) into Jimmy, sending him flying into Carmine Costanza’s “Fine Ice Cream and Delectable’s” cart. On their 10th and 11th birthday, when the bakery sent over a cake with the words Happy Birthday Gemelli Twins written all over it, it was Camille who subtly suggested to Donnie and his friends that someone ought to give that bakery “a good egging.” So when her son David got himself into a little trouble down at the university with some little blond tramp, it was Camille who begged Donnie to take the fall for him, “David won’t last a night in the joint,” She said. Donnie’s funeral was the worst though, what with everyone in the neighborhood whispering about David in his sunglasses; that whore on his arm; and their little bastard son walking behind them, it was a wonder Camille got any grieving done at all. When Father Lahey began the prayer, Camille squeezed her eyes shut, in mock reverence, and managed to produce a single obligatory tear.
