1 The Twins

"Sis, where are you?" The little boy went to the master's bedroom. But only darkness greeted him. No one was there. Not even a slight sign of anybody being there. He began to worry. He already checked everywhere. Balcony. Dining room. Kitchen. Playground. Backyard. Their room. Lastly, the master bedroom. Where could she be hiding? Oh maybe she went to the bookstore? It was just across my bestfriend's house.

He was about to reach the door for it to close when he suddenly heard a noise. It was a small chuckle. Is it from inside? He was starting to feel uncomfortable and a bit scared not until he recognized the voice. "Sis?" Silence. "Sis? Hey, is that you?" He palmed the wall, searching for the switch light button. He struggled at first, without eyeglasses he had a blurry vision. When the light had turned on, there he saw her at the corner.

Her hand was covering the mouth while the other hand was leaning against the stomach. She was laughing so hard like there was no more tomorrows. "Oh my gosh, Bryan! I can't believe you would follow such nonsense quest." The little protagonist was still in a condition where couldn't manage to stand up on her own. "Bryan help me. Haha. I can't stand up. Haha. My tummy hurts."

"Suits you well." ,crossing his arms. "I can't believe you are older than me." He added. I don't understand why on earth I followed her instructions like an idiot. He rolled his eyes. It's because you like her idiot! Then sighed.

An hour ago, Bridgette asked his little brother to wait for her outside. If for instance hour passed already but she hadn't come yet, look for her everywhere. Which what the innocent little nice-good guy did.

"I'm not that old, silly. We only have 10minutes gap. Just so happens I went out first before you."

"Yeah because you were eager to pee that's why."

"Hey, it wasn't like that."

"Yes it was. Mom was just shy to tell you so." And then he left her. He headed straight to the living room and sat on the sofa, pouting.

"Are you still mad?" She asked as she sat beside her little brother. "Okay i'm sorry. I was just playing with you." She panicked when the boy did not give a reply. Little did she know he was only pretending to be mad as a payback. "Bryan, sister's really sorry. I won't do it again. I promise." She said, pouting.

Snap out of it Bryan! She might be cute but she's your sister. Don't look at her that way. "S-stop it. Okay okay. Just stop it."

"Stop what?" She furrowed her eyebrows. Confused as to what he was referring to. "Wait. Are you sick? Why your face all red? Lemme check." She leaned her forehead against the lil boy's. Which made him worst ever more. "Bryan you're hot and your face is even more redder! I'll call daddy. Wait here."

"N-no.. s-stop." ,avoiding her gaze. He was to shy to face her. "I'm fine. I'm not dying you know. You're just being close that's why."

"And now you are acting weird. You aren't really dying right?"

"Why would I? I was just.. angry. Yeah. You were pouting and acting cute. Why would you do that? It only made you even uglier.", as he avoided gazes and blushed.

"What? You stupid little brother. If i am ugly, then what are you? Remember we are twins."

"But our face is different." He mumbled.

She noticed the tone was in dismay and that her brother was unhappy. She smiled, "Because we are fraternal twins. Not all twins have same faces you know.", cheering him up.

"Hey sis, you don't have to fake youself. I know the evil side of you." He joked.

"What are you saying? You know how much I care for you."

However, the fact that they don't resemble each other was his advantage. Hence, the fact that they are twins was what broken him. He was inlove with his little sister. Our birthday is near. Now that we will be 10 years old soon, it is gonna be 5years of one-sided love. And i am still not regretting it. I know for sure will never gonna regret it.

"But it is still a good thing we don't share same face. You purely look ugly sis."

"You-! Come here! I may be not that pretty but just wait, when i get to High School i'll get good-looking guys wooing me."

"Ouch!" She pinched and dragged him by his ear. "Ouch. Sis, sorry. Ouch."

"And now you sorry? Nah-uh! I'll give you a lesson."

"It hurts, you evil frog!"

"Evil frog?"

"I said even pretty doey frog."

"You-!"

"Haha. You are uglier when you get mad."

"And you still dare to laugh?" This time she smacked him real hard.

"Ouch."

She released him, "Well, i hope you learned your lesson now." And both of them laughed. "We look like idiots now."

Infront of other, they were like dogs and cats. But only the both of them knew behind of those arguments and laughter.

Because there were things that must be hidden. For the good.

As long as you are not sad Bryan, little sister here will do everything for you.

As long as you are not sad Sis, i will do everything for you. Not as brother, but as a man.

And it must be kept for just myself. No one should know.
