Chapter 1: Daily life (?)
"Sister!! Sister!!! SISTER!!!"
"Keep your mouth shut Antonio, or I will throw my shoe to your face!"
I said with a sleepy voice, while my eyes still shut because not have enough energy.
My twin brother, Antonio Haiphox (don't ask why our family name like that) just look like "You think I really care?" face.
I was come first, then him. Our hair is auburn, Antonio's hair a little mess, while our eyes may be brown or black. Hard to decide. Because when we are outside when the sunrise high and people usually ask
"Is your eyes brown?"
Then in the evening, they will ask
"Why it changes into black?"
Hear that from time to time, and now, used to it.
"Sister~~Big sister~~Please don't sleep~~Please don't leave me alone~~"
Antonio sings a song that creates by himself, though it looks like a poem, but not actually a poem. However, it kinda makes me piss off!
If I have more energy, if my brother has ten minutes to live, I think he will need to run before I catch him
Right now, I just want to sleep. Last night was exhausted, with the reason you all know: WORK!
All day, all night, maybe have some break but it not take to long. I was wonder how can I survive through this situation?
"You think you are the one who tired?" Antonio smirk "Big Sis, you are making a mistake!"
I, Amelia Haiphox, right now, really, really, really, want to punch my brother's face. I think my mind is now on fire.
"I know, professor!" I said, make the voice nicer "I know that you have too many projects that you need to handle. However! Stop-talking-and-let-me-sleep-you-dumass. Or you want me to punch into your face?"
I turn around, not want to see what face that my brother make. So annoying!
"Yeah, fine! But I just want to say, you are stink!"
After that word, my mind goes blank.
-----------------------
"Ok, big sis..." Antonio sign "Sleep tight. You have worked hard.."
He looks around the apartment. Although his sister has to work day by day, she still keeps her living room and kitchen clean, except for her bedroom, especially the table where she work on.
"Maybe I can cook something for her..." He thinks
Remember when they were young, while their mother is out for work, Amelia had made many kinds of weird food, by her own idea.
It was very good, that food. Though she keeps mix thing up, it not dangerous for their stomach or health.
Now, it is Antonio turn to created food, and let his sister taste it.
Pretty sure it will better than those old time.
-------------------------
"Oh, right, Ami!" Antonio said, "Ed said he wants to borrow your babe!"
"Who is my babe?" I curious
He looks at me like I just fell from the sky, which is not.
"Your beautiful red car?"
"Oh..." I stop for a minute "Wait! When? Where?"
"Your phone. He calls while you sleep. He will come here at about 7:30 p.m"
"Great! He will come soon. It is now 7:00 p.m"
I said while look at the clock on the wall.
Edison Huang, one of Amelia're childhood friend, a half Chinese half America, a person who has a good voice and right now is a singer, with a staright but kinda mess short black hair, brown eyes and there are some dark circles under his eyes, which he said it was genetic
They have meet since they were four years old, while Amelia and her brother playing outside, and a strange boy came to them and said
"Hi! I'm Edison! You can call me Ed!"
Ed is a friend who admits their friend, who always cheer his friend up. Know how to tell a joke and make people laugh.
Althought he is not really popular in school, but no one dares to bully him back then. The reason is simply that they know that the trouble will come to them if they dare to touch or hurt Amelia friends.
Amelia used to learn karate, judo and while she was little, in her area, she always fight with those kids who go and steal other's food or toy, so she know very well how to deal with the bullied.
Ed also know how to defend himself too, he learns kungfu since he was eight, so one more reason for nobody dares to hurt him.
Amelia and Ed have been a best friend since that time and till now, and really, althought sometime he like to annoying her much but he always know how to cher her up
Long time no see him, well, he have too many schedule so we hard to meet each other.
The doorbell ring. Maybe is Ed.
"Hey! Go open the door for me!" I said to my brother
"I'm busy right now!" he said
"You are standing near the door, so just open it!" I said, try to make my voice more dangerous
Antonio mumbles something, maybe the bad word, then open the door.
"Hey there, Ami and Ant!" Edison smile "How are you feeling now, Ami?"
"Much better after I eat a delicious meal!" I chuckle
There is someone talking in the kitchen and I'm really sure that the voice belongs to my brother and I think he is saying
"I know my foods are goodddddddddd."
"Is that voice belong to Antonio?" Ed asking
"Who else do you think?" I sign "So, Ed, tell me, why you want to borrow my car?"
Ed smile makes me feel like it's not a good thing. I suddenly feel goosebump around my body. Could it be...
"Tyler just phones me, and he said that the shopping center is having a big, big, big sale. So we..."
"So you guys decided to borrow my car and bring me, because I never let my babe be along, with you guys just to carrying your shopping stuff?"
"That's right!" Ed smile
I look at him for a while, maybe about two or three minutes, because I have to decide that left my baby car to my best friend's hand and let him destroy it or should I go with him to carry thing also protect the car. After all, I can't say "No" to him...
"You own me! Both of you!"
"We know that~We will be hurry if, you know, your brother..." Ed shrugged
"Yeah...almost forgot about him..."
I give a small sigh while turn to face my brother, who making such a hilarious face. Bet that he had hear our conversation.
------------------------------
"Go to sleep, brother!"
"I want to go shopping, too!"
Antonio said, while his sister is glare at him. Well, he loves shopping. He has too many things to buy and he can't miss this chance.
"No! Ant! Don't make me repeat myself!" Amelia hissed "When I say 'No', it is 'No'!"
"But why, I wonder?"
"How much time will you spend on the shopping mall? You plus two of them?"
"Well..."
Antonio blush slightly when he think about the answer that he alfready know. Well, he can't become a burden while his sister had enough trouble from her friends.
"Next week I will bring you to the mall." Amelia promised "I'm promise!"
Antonio think for a while then in the end, he nod while saying
"OK, big sis! I will stay at home!"
"Good! Want to eat something? Some mid-night food?"
"Sure! McDonald, please."
"Fine! Be good, ok!" Amelia smirk, then she rubs Antonio's head
"Stop it, sis!" Antonio feel uncomfortable "Just because you are taller than me that doesn't mean you can do that to me!"
He doesn't understand! When they were 17 and about 18, his sister just tall about 5'05 ft, and he is 5'54 ft. However, now Amelia is 6'1 ft, while Antonio just 5'71 ft! Not fair!
"I know, I know! I will come back soon, so be safe, ok!"
"See you soon, big sis!"
-----------------------------
When we arrive at the main entrance of the shopping center, Tyler Tanaka, another childhood friend of me, half Japanese, is standing there and keep reading his book on his hand.
His not too long black hair fell slighly in front of his face, and his black eyes shine like a star. Maybe he is reading something interesting.
Tyler is the one that Amelia admire most, can be say as her right hand man. He know Amelia more than Edison does and he always the one know to hold their friends fight back and reduce it. He more like a mother in the three, as he always worried about their friends daily meal, worried if they are okay. After all, he is a doctor, a healthy person, so, Amelia and Edison sometime wonder or mistake that Tyler is their mother.
"Hey there, TyTy!" I smirk while saying
"Nice to see you, Ami! And you too, Ed!" Tyler said and smile after that "Hey Ed, you don't have to, well, wearing glasses and mask and hat? It kinda hot right now, and I promise that no one won't recognize you even you unmask."
"Just for sure!" Ed smile, I guess
"Everybody eyes will only look at Ami, for sure!"
Tyler smirk while looking at me and said. Ed laugh like he enjoys his favorite music.
I tall about 6.1 ft, as same as TyTy and Ed, and there is some problem that people always think that I'm a handsome guy. TyTy and Ed and my brother also admit that I look very handsome in every clothes, especially in a shirt or vest or suit.
I have asked: "How can it be?" then they just shook their head with no explain the reason. My voice not to low and not sounding like other man, and I don't even have Adam's apple, which mean people should know I'm a girl, or women, right?
Ed say once they love because of your look, sometime they don't pay attention to other minor one.
"Yeah yeah! Whatever!" I said in tired "Can you guys please done your job before the shop are close and before I start to mad because I need my sleep?"
"Ok, boss!"
TyTy and Ed said with a bright smile. I sigh. Although both of them are handsome, but if you know them for a long time, you will know that they are not what they look like!
"Ah~~I have been waiting for this time ~~Those surgery make me exhausted!"
"Me either! Let's go, bro!! No time to waste if you, well, you know..."
Once my friends leave, I make myself comfortable in a coffee shop near the door of the shopping center, the shop inside the building, of course. Recently, I don't prefer drinking coffee, so I just going to order some smoothie, read the book that belong to TyTy and sit there, wait for two my best friend finish shopping.
"Havana" is the song that played in the shop, sang by Camila Cabello. I listen to it while my feet are swinging through the melody. However...I think I hear someone talk about me?
I foccus more and slowly realise that it's belong to two girl who sit cross me about 45 or 48 degree and not sit too far from where I was.
"He so handsome! I don't know if he already have a girlfriend."
Wait! What?!?
"Yeah! The moment he walk into the shop, I think I'm already in love with him! Why he have to be so good looking like this!"
Oi! I'm a woman! Or maybe, they are talking about someone else. I hope so.
"The way he read the book, the way he move his feet through the music and...oh my god! I don't think I can breath anymore! I think I will die soon!"
"Black T-shirt, long jean, with high red neck shoes, and his hair tie low, make him so, what can I say...?"
"So romantic~"
"That's right girl!"
So they really talk about me, because that's what I wearing!
I really, really, REALLY want to GET UP, find TyTy and Ed then GET OUT of the shop! However, my two best friends just have shopped for 15 minutes and believe me, until the shopping center close, they won't go home for any reason.
Why? Please someone tell me why?
Maybe I just need to, well, talk to those girl and...wait! I have some important thing to do, right! So that I can escape from those girl!
I need to go to McDonnals to buy chicken nugget for Antonio. With that thinking, I stand up, pay the bill, leave some tip then get out of the shop. Before I left, I think I have hear one of two girl say
"Hurry up! We need his number!"
Too bad, ladies, too bad. You need to remove those high heels to catch up with me. I smirk while think like that.
As I espect, those girl can't catch up with me, and I feel so realise. Right now, my target is McDonnals, and after that, well, maybe I need to...
Ok! Just buy food first!
After I buy french fries, maybe about 20 minutes, after I come out McDonnals, I really don't know what to do next or where should I go now...
"Ami!"
Oh! That voice belong to Ed! I turn around, but the smile dissapear.
"Why are you guys buy too many clothes?!?!?!?"
As I can see, each of them carry about seven bag, and it's not small, it very big! I think I'm having a heart attack right now...Oh my, oh my.
"Also, you guys just shopping about..."
"30 minutes or more, but not nearly two or three hours?" TyTy smile "Well, we have waiting for this day for a month, and when the shopping just about come out the new..."
"...we already list what we need to buy and the colour of it." Ed said "Because we know that you can't survive in the coffee shop where place in the shopping center, due to your handsome look."
"Lucky that your brother not coming, or there will be, you know, more than three hours.." Ed laughed "And you will get more trouble."
Oh...so they know I will be the target of the ladies in the coffee shop and they decide to cut the usual time of shopping of them just to...
"Aw~~~~Why are both of you suddenly so cute?" I think I'm smiling "I think...Oh shoot!"
Those two girl, again!!!! They have found me!!! They have found me!!!! Shoottttt!!! I turn to my friends for help, but Ed just look on the phone, while TyTy, well, hard to know what face he's making.
"There he is!!!"
"Oh my..." I said in nervous "Oh my. Oh my!!"
Those two girl come near to me. I think in their eyes just only have the picture of me, because my two best friend also have good looking too but look like they don't care much!
"Ehrm...What can I help you, young ladies?" I try to act nice
Beside me, Ed want to laugh, but he hold himself, while TyTy just show usual smile. I swear those two girl are blushing. One of them, come really, really near me and began to say
"Umh, my name is [...] and this is [...], we just want to ask for your number, if that is okay for you?"
"Well, I'm so sorry, I can't give you two my number..."
I give a straight answer, which make Ed laugh like crazy, TyTy's smile more widen and make two girl turn into stone. I glance at my friends, especially Ed, who is laugh a lot.
"Sorry for that..." I smile "But really, I can't give your my number..."
"But..."
"Also, I'm not a guy." I realise
No need to explain much. One sentence make them turn into rock, again, with an experience kinda funny for me, althought it will be impolite for me to laugh out loud.
You may said I'm curel, you may said I should accept to give them my number, I should act like I'm a man, but really, not that I don't want to make more friend, but if I just play like that, there will be a huge problem and well, social media is the scared place. So does our human.
"Hey..." TyTy speak up, recuse me from the awkward moment "We should go now! Your little brother is waiting for us!"
"Yeah!!" Ed also interfere "We have to come back or else he will end up hurt himself."
"Of course!" I smile "Sorry for make your heart broken, but what I say was true, please don't sad too much..."
"...then start to misunderstand me..."
Something weird grow inside me, a dark feeling, but in the end, I choose to ignore it, give the girl a smile then turn to leave.
-------------------------------
Edison just smirk, when those two girl face become pale, due to Amelia's smile.
Widen, friendly, but her eyes like abyss, dark and cold. From her, there are some murderous air and he know that they will have gossbump around their body.
He know that because he used to face those smile once, and is not a good memories at all.
Also, the way she say those last sentence, give a hint of warning. Of course, Amelia will never know.
"Hope that she can still control 'it'." Tyler whisper "Or we will get a lot trouble..."
--------------------------------
"Hi Sis! How was your hand?"
"Nope, just my head..." I sigh
"Why?" my brother give a curious look
"One simple question: Why I'm look so handsome, bro?"
"Oh..." Antonio smirk "I know why..."
I sigh again. So tired! Take a shower, then go to bed..Yeah, I need some sleep...
The phone start to ring. I look at it for a while, after I mumble some bad word that if my mother hear it, she will wash my mouth with soap...
---------------------------------
The smile on his sister face make him feel chilly, after she took the phone call. Antonio know what that smile are saying: The joy of hunting had lighted up.
"Another business for you, sis?" Antonio ask
Her smile are the answer for his question, and that't sound not very nice, never nice for him.
Note: Sorry if the story is bad. If there anything to fix, please tell me.
