Summary[]
The Little Miss Twins were playing football in the house, when suddenly...they've broken the window in their house, so that means they answer the question, saying "Miss Twin-in passes to Miss Twin-in, who passes back to Miss Twin-in, who sends the ball into the... tiles! Wreck-Wreck! Catastrophe! This is what happens when you play soccer in your house! Even champion-pieces don't always catch the ball. Outside, no problem. Inside, there are lots of things that break. Useful things or pretty things. Breaking things isn't nice." while empathizing with the reader.
