And now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain

Serephina Pov
I was worried for both of my brothers especially Nathaniel. I know how he can get.
"Don't worry Serephina he'll be okay," Calore reassures me. "He's smart he isn't going to do anything that stupid".
"I know I'm just worried," I sigh.
I turn as I start to hear baby A fussing.
"Hey, hey, hey," Calore says softly while picking her up.
She squirms a bit as he lays her against his chest. Right now we don't have names but for now we're just going to dress them up in two different colors to tell which is which.
"We're going to need some names you know," Calore says placing her back down in the bassinet.
"Yeah I know," I say rubbing baby's b belly. "I was thinking maybe R names or M or maybe even K names. I'm pretty much have no ideas. What about you?"
"Hm," rubs his incoming beard. "How about Matelyn?"
"Yeah no," I say. "I once knew a Matelyn and almost attempted throwing her off a bridge. Next".
"Wait, wait wait," he begins. "That wouldn't be the same chick you almost threw hot coffee on?"
"In my defense I didn't know I was pregnant. Pregnancy mood swings are not something to play with".
"Oh so that applies to your defense when you also threw wine on her too," he says and I laugh.
"Uh no not really," I reply. "That was just me being a bitch".
He shakes his head and laughs at me. And a smile appears on his face.
"What?" I ask.
"Astraea," he says. "Astraea Nova Rileys, for baby A".
I give it some thought.
"I like it, it's unique," I say. I look over at baby A. I think it definitely fits her.. "It's way better than what I was thinking".
"Oh I doubt it was that bad," he says. "Come on what about baby b. What did you have in mind?"
"Well if you insist I was thinking of A---
There was a knock at the door cutting me off.
"Come in," I say.
The door opens revealing Vincent.
"What's wrong Vincent?" I ask.
"Xavier's been gone for a hour and Arabella is mumbling some weird stuff in her sleep. I didn't pay much attention at first but she keeps mumbling the same phrase over and over," he answered.
Calore glanced back at me.
"If you ask me I think it has something to do with the bindings," he continued.
