The little devil's plan.
Just as they finish their breakfast and were now snacking on the pizza and grape juice, Iris bounce into the house like a little bunny.
Smelling the sweet aroma that wafted her nose, she squinted her eyes and walk straight to the kitchen ignoring Daniela and Gabriela's confuse gaze. When she enter the kitchen, she was greeted by the sight of a half naked handsome man doing dishes. Shock and embarrass at the same time, Iris slowly turn around and walk out of the kitchen with hurried foot steps. Thanks goodness, Eric was backing her and didn't notice someone had entered the kitchen.
Gabriela and Daniela were watching her from the sitting room and decided to be quite.
Iris whose face as turn scarlet red run to the sitting room and slump on a chair and said, "Hey, good morning mommies".
"...."
"...."

Err, it's not that she doesn't know she was acting weird right now, but it was the delicious aroma that made her that stupid.
Gabriela and Daniela burst into laughter as they couldn't stand the silly look on her face anymore.
Pouting Iris said, " It's not that I don't know I was weird right now, but the sweet aroma was what mislead me".
"Sorry, we didn't know you were coming, but you are lucky there's some leftovers in the fridge. You can just make do with the pizza now, while I warm the food for you", said Gabriela.
"Oh yeah. But who's that man in your kitchen?" asked Iris.
"Oh, that's my brother, Eric", reply Gabriela.
"Holy crap, he's so sexy. I almost drool in the kitchen. I didn't know that the almighty Gynecologist of Indy and a heir to Leo Corporation is so hot and sexy. I mean, Daniela had told me some things about him, but what I saw now was freakishly ....", wait that's not right, am really blabbing", said Iris.
Gabriela shake her head in amusement and went to warm the food for her, while Daniela burst into laughter again.
"Why are you laughing?", asked Iris whose face was so red like ripe tomato.
"Am laughing at your blabbing, but if you like Eric, I and Gabriela can match make you two together", reply Daniela.
"Hehehe, no thanks. I don't want to have a boyfriend till am done with my studies", said Iris with a sheepish smile.
"Ok. So why were you blushing when you saw him in the kitchen right now?", asked Daniela with raise eyebrow.
"Er that, I have never seen a man's naked body before. My brothers are always dressed all the time and am always careful while entering their room. So to see a stranger dress with only short in the house was really scary to me", reply Iris honestly.
"Hmm, you are really innocent. So what brought you here by this time?", said Daniela.
"I have always wanted to go shopping at tower mall, but my brothers wouldn't allow me even when the mall is own by Bills corporation. So today I use you and Ella for a very good excuse and my brothers accepted right away...", said Iris with a smirk.
"...."
Daniela was short of words this time. This girl is really a devil.
Sigh, Daniela said, "You are such a little devil. You have succeeded with your lies, but I and Ella can't afford anything there you know. I had not been to work for 4 months now and Ella didn't go for her holiday job as you already know. So where will we get the money from to go shopping there?"
"Pfft. My brothers are taking care of that. I told them Ella wanted to go shopping in order to take her heart off what had happened and you want to change your wardrobe, so they readily agreed," said Iris with a devilish smile on her face.
"...."
"....., What???"
Gabriela who had just return to the dinning area with a tray of food almost jump in surprise. Just what was this little devil up to.
Even though she just heard the last conversation, she could still tell that Iris had use their name to deceive her brothers.
"Tsk! Sorry Mom, but I really needed this", said Iris with a grin, because deep down she wasn't sorry but excited. She wants her brothers and this mommies of hers to spend more time together.
" I am not angry, but you know if we tag along with you, then you will have to pay", said Gabriela as she set the food on the table.
"I'm not paying a dime. My senior daddy is going to handle all the expenses, so you don't have to worry", said Iris.
"Iris, I know you and your brothers are being nice to us, but we aren't the type who use people to gain what they want. Tower mall is a place I have always dream of visiting since I came to country C, but I can't be tempted to use you and your brothers. I love working hard to achieve everything I want, so does Daniela. We have been taught to be independent and we embrace that fact. We have been taught never to use others to our own good and we love that fact. We have been taught to be kind and generous towards others and never ask for anything in return, and we like doing just that", said Gabriela.
Iris lowered her head like a guilty child and said, "I'm sorry Ellas, but it ok if you don't want to come with me".
Sighing at the same time, Gabriela and Daniela embrace her and said at the same time, " You silly. It's ok princess".
"...."
_______________
Eric was rendered speechless in the kitchen.
He had heard everything they have been saying since, but he decided to turn a deaf ear to it thinking that Iris was just a friend to them, but the way his kittens treated her made him understand she's not just a friend but someone important to them.
Heaving a sigh, Eric walk up to them and asked, "Forgotten my existence?"
"...."
"...."
"....."
The girls separated from each other's embrace and look at Eric at the same time.
"Of course not", said Gabriela.
"Yep, meet my friend Iris", said Daniela.
"Hi Mr Anderson, my name is Iris Bills", said Iris politely.
"Hello princess. You can just call me Eric.
And oh, you must be the pink princess Daniela told me about, right?", asked Eric in a deep and magnetic voice which make Iris to almost lost her composure.
"Ye..... Yes, I am", reply Iris as she stared at him in daze.
Chuckling, Eric said, "You are really adorable as my kitten said".
Iris who had never been spoken to like that started blushing from her face to her ear. Ah~ 'How can a man be so handsome?' Scream Iris in her head.
"Than.... Thank you Mr.... I mean Eric", said Iris with her head bow.
"You are most welcome, adorable princess", said Eric. He must admit that she's adorable and pretty. She looks like a pink rabbit, but her big eyes are very sharp making her even more beautiful.
