"Red?" I looked at the little boy.
"Red and Blue! How are you guys?" I smiled, crouching down to give them a hug.
"Where's our prize?" Blue pushed me away and began looking around. Red was the only one still hugging me. Prize? What prize?
"What prize?" Blue quickly turned around and looked at me with wide eyes. He gasped. I stared back at him. There was a moment of awkward silence between this 5 year old and I.
"The prize you said we would get if we ran away." Red reminded. I stared at them shocked. That prize!
"Oh! Well, here! Pick anything out you want in the mall. I'll pay for it." I smiled. Jace will be paying actually. I looked at the card Jace gave me. Sorry Jace.
"Yes!" Red and Blue synced. Their happy faces were replaced with confused faces.
"Why are you wearing that?" Blue cringed. I took a look at him and placed my hand on his shoulder.
"You shouldn't judge, Blue. It's not nice." I looked at him in the eye and he nodded.
"Sorry." He frowned, I squished his cheek.
"It's okay. Just remember that okay?" He nodded and came his smiling face again.
"She needs a makeover." Red bopped his head and Blue nodded in agreement. The two little boys began to drag me towards a store. I looked around. I dragged them out of the store.
"Today isn't about me. Do you guys know why today is so special?" I smiled, raising a brow.
"You lost your virginity?" Blue blurted, people around us started looking at us even weirder. I mentally facepalmed myself. These kids are too young to even know what virginity is.
"It's Caleb's birthday. Stupid." Red smacked Blue in the head. Blue smacked him back. They were about to full on have a smacking war before I broke them apart.
"Don't hit your brother." I glared at Red and he nodded.
"Yeah, and Miel's present for him is to give away her virginity to him. That's what I meant. Idiot." Blue glared at Red and crossed his arms. Red nodded.
"Oh! Sorry for hitting you. That would be a pretty good present." Red rubbed his tiny chin with his tiny hand. How do they know about virginity exactly? How do they even know how to lose it?
"How do you guys know all of this?" I stared at them confused. They exchanged glances.
"Caleb." They synced. I was speechless. Why would he-
"We also what those noises were. You know, the first time we met you. You were walking weirdly and heard noises like-" Blue explained, before he could go any further, I covered his mouth.
"Ah! Ah! Harder! Ah! Faster!" Red yelled and then smirked. All eyes were on us now as people walked by. I quickly slapped my hand on his mouth. How the fuck do they know all of this? What the fuck?
I handed them my boba and held their hands. We walked away and headed to the food court.
"This is good. Can we get some?" I looked down and realized they finished my boba. I told them to hold it-
"Sure, but you guys have to tell me where you guys learned all of that and how. You also have to help me find Caleb a gift. We also have to go guy some hats and sunglasses for you guys. We are going to become spies okay? Caleb and some of our friends are here so we have to stay disguised so they don't see us. Okay?" I smiled.
"Okay!" They cheered. We got off the escalator and walked towards the food court.
I let them order some food and we bought some boba. I bought them the same flavour I was currently drinking and I even bought another one for myself. We sat down at a table and I waited for them to speak.
"So?" I asked, putting down my hoodie but kept on my hat and sunglasses.
"So?" Red and Blue synced. They took a sip. I mentally facepalmed myself.
"How did you guys know about virginity and how to lose it? You guys are 5!" I freaked, they shrugged.
"Caleb told us everything. He said that one day, we will get to do it." Blue smirked and nodded his head. I cringed. As cute and attractive they look already, I sure hope they don't lose their virginity at a young age.
"When we heard noises, I told Blue to go to Caleb's room and listen to what was happening." Red explained. My face became warm. You have to be kidding me right now.
"So I did. I even creaked open the door a bit. You guys sure did look like you guys were enjoying it." Blue's eyes widened and he looked away.
"Then he ran back to our room and told me everything and when we saw you walking weirdly. We both immediately knew. We also knew you were lying." Red smirked. I sat there, shocked. I took a sip of my boba and buried my embarrassed face in my arms. I looked back up.
"Also! We have 5 and a half!" They synced. I plopped my head back into my arms and waited for them to finish drinking their bobas.

"Are you guys-" I lazily looked up and saw two empty seats. You have to be kidding me. I quickly got up and took off my sunglasses. I shoved them into my hoodie pocket and started running. Where the fuck could they be? Think. Where would a child want to go?
I ran towards the escalator and ran up. I ran towards the video game store. Before I could enter I bumped into a body. I fell to the ground. I quickly placed my sunglasses back on and looked up to see Cheryl. Caleb and Issac at her side.
"Sorry. Miss." I said in a deep voice and walked towards the video game store in a cool way. I hid behind a clothing stack and looked to see if they left. That was close.
I got up and kept looking around. They weren't here! I began to panic. I ran back downstairs and finally found them in the playground. It looks like they were taking turns?
I ran towards them and gave them a hug.
"Next time, tell me when you guys are going to leave." I whispered in their ears and they nodded.
"You looked fast asleep so you must be tired. We didn't wanna wake you." Red smiled. I smiled back. That's sweet.
"That's nice of you but don't worry. I'm not tired. Wake me up at any time okay?" They both nodded.
I looked at Blue who was sitting on the bench, surrounded by a bunch of shopping bags.
"Whats all of this?" I pointed towards the bags. Red placed his tiny hand on my finger and held it.
"We bought the gifts." Red smiled. My eyes widened. I began to check all my pockets. The card was missing. Blue took out the card and did a cool card looking trick. He then threw me the card. These are definitely not normal 5 year olds.
"What did you guys buy?" I began to search the bags. How much did they spend?
"Don't worry. All these items are what all boys would want." Blue bopped his head and plastered an evil grin. Red did the same.
"Okay. We are going home. Also where are your parents?" They looked at each other.
"What parents? Our parents are in Vietnam. They have been there for 5 months." They stared at me blankly. Ok-
"Okay, then. Well, then let's go shall we?" I picked up all the bags and held their hands.
We exited the mall and I placed the bags in the trunk. We all put on our seatbelt and headed to Grace's.
I wonder how Caleb is holding up right now.
