It was the day after meeting with Yuzuha Hitachiin. She's a very kind lady and I'm honored to have gotten the chance to meet with her. I wanted to talk to the twins first today and make sure I thanked them for inviting me over.

That was the first time I've ever been to the twins' house, I knew it would be big, but its size surprised me. My driver stopped and turned to face me.

"Shimizu-san, we're here." I nodded and opened the door to leave the car. After thanking my driver, I ran off to my homeroom looking for the twins.

The moment I walked in I saw Hikaru, Kaoru and Haruhi sitting next to each other while talking. They noticed me walking in and waved at me. Once I saw them waving I rushed over to them while waving. "Good morning!" I turned to the twins and smiled while taking something out of my backpack.

"Here- last night I made cookies as a thank you for inviting me to your home." I handed them the Tupperware box filled with sweets and one of the twins grabbed it.

"Thanks, you really don't have to do that- besides Honey-senpai once force-fed me three whole cakes and ever since then I've never really liked sweets." Upon hearing this, I lost my smile, but still tried to keep a happy face. "Oh don't worry, you can just give it to your mom." I scratched the back of my neck awkwardly.

I hope someone in their house likes cookies, I spent four hours last night trying to make them perfect. I made a total of six batches and those were the only ones that weren't burnt...

Aw man, I really hope I didn't waste my time on cookies no one would eat.

The other twin then grabbed the box and stood up. "It's fine! I love cookies, I really appreciate the gesture!" He bowed a little and opened the lid of the box. He quickly shoved a cookie in his mouth and swallowed it.

I think he's just trying to make me feel better. I studied his face and it didn't seem like he hated the cookie, so I believed him. "Ah, well that's good. Anytime you need me to make cookies- I'll make them!" I gave him a smile, but deep down I really hoped he wouldn't ask me to make him anything. I'm a terrible baker and I really didn't want the house to smell like burnt cookies again.

The twin smiled and continued to eat another cookie. After that, it was really quiet and the tension finally got to me. "Come to think of it, I don't know who you are. I mean I know your names are Hikaru and Kaoru, but I don't know which is which." The twins looked at each other and back at me, they were smirking, but I could tell in their eyes that they were sad.

"Well duh, that's kind of our whole thing!" The twins walked up to me and leaned on my shoulders. "If you want to see if you can guess who is who- we can play a game."

I waved me hands and shook my head. "No no, I don't want to play a game I really suck at guessing."

The twins pounded my head lightly with their fists after I said this. "C'mon! Don't be such a downer! If you win then we'll let you have another piece of clothes our mom made!" I pushed them away from me and shook my head again. "Not interested, I don't want to keep on taking stuff from you." I took two fingers to rub my forehead, trying to cleanse my growing headache and sighed. "Never mind, class is starting soon just forget about it." I mumbled and sat down in my chair.

More students began to walk in and take their seats, but among all of the people I could feel the twins eyes burning into me for the entire class. Once the bell rang, I quickly got up and ran to the halls.

It wasn't that I didn't want to play the game with the twins, I was just scared of guessing wrong. I could tell they were hurt when I couldn't tell them apart and so I didn't want to play a game that would further hurt their feelings.
