Author's Note: A snippet of Duo's childhood as an orphan on the streets of the colony.
There was an old photograph he had in his pocket. It was folded, creased with wear – even had spots of grease on it.
He found it in a trash heap. It was a picture of a family.
It wasn’t his family, but there were times when he would pretend.
His mom would cook him warm meals, tuck him in at night, read him a story.
His father would play ball, take him to work, maybe even tell jokes.
He’d share a bunk bed with his younger brother, teach him how to fight.
His dream was something to combat the nightmares.
