After the breakfast with Khun Vegas, we did not had the time to meet each other till dinner since I was so busy organizing papers that will be needed by Khun Isarel tomorrow. I also practiced being a bit graceful since I know that that event is characterized of elegant and graceful heirs from different known companies.

I can't humiliate Khun Israel, so I watched how proper ettiquette is practiced on formal gatherings. I also ironed the suits were going to use. 

Khun Israel specifically picked the black colored suit and a periwinkle blue colored suit for me. He said that the color of the suit would compliment my light skin tone. I bet he would look dashing in black since he has snow white, skin tone.

I was doing some push ups when my door room suddenly opened.

"Hi, Liebe." Khun Israel greeted, his voice sounds tired.

"Hi... are you okay?" I asked. I immediately stand up and went to the door and cupped his face.


The oldest children really do the tough work huh? he looks so tired I bet he'll be snoring the moment his back touches his mattress. I saw that he was sweating so I immediately caught the hem of my shirt, lifted it up and wiped the sweat that travelled from his forehead down to his neck. 

Khun is just an inch taller so I didn't really had a hard time wiping his sweat. I wasn't aware of what I was doing. I just casually did it, I even do this with Porsche.

I saw how Khun Isarel stared at me in shocked and his hands was holding both of my shoulders like he was so ready to push me. Eh?


"Ehem." A loud voice forced cough.

"I'm starving. You guys can be lovey-dovey later." Khun Vegas said and walked out. 

"Are you guys here to invite me for dinner?" I asked Khun Israel

"Yes..." Khun Israel replied and smiled.

"But I am still not done with the work you left me." I reasoned out, trying to look cute. Maybe he'll say that he can do it. Oi! I'm tired already. I want to hear gunshots not keyboard sounds. I did not spend my two years coughing blood and sweating buckets so I could sit and tap on my laptop all day.

"It's okay. You can do that later." Khun Israel smiled. Oho, what a disappointment. But anyways, I'm too hungry now, I could eat a horse so I just nodded, grabbed my phone and went out with Khun Israel.

When we arrived at the restaurant, I saw Khun Vegas sitting on a table, he seemed angry. I realized that we're sitting on the same table again. 

"Err... Khun Israel, this morning. Khun Vegas and I had breakfast on this table and we ate dinner hear yesterday. Do you like, own this table?" I can not helped but asked.

"Aww? didn't I tell you that Vegas and I owns everything from the 12th floor?" Khun Israel asked innocently.

"No, Khun. You didn't say anything to me aside from being on this island for some elite meeting to accompany you." I stated as a matter of fact.

Khun Israel giggled and I saw from the corner of my eyes that Khun Vegas smirked.


"Okay so, this is how it goes." Khun Israel started.

"This island is own by Uncle Korn but he has given this to Anakinn already. Anakinn owes me a favor in the past so I talked to him if we could use this island every year to held quadrimee. I also asked him if we could build this building here. He said that it's okay as long as he'll be allowed to use this building on some occasions. Most probably, meetings with VVIP's. I said that's okay and he and his visitors will be deemed VIP's here. They can eat on this restaurant, here at the 12th floor, free or charge. He reckoned that's a great offer plus we're family so he said yes." Khun Israel explained.

"One thing is that, we do not own this whole building. You see we have 12 buldings and 12 heirs. We're thirteen but twins are considered as one. We're like the zodiacs Pete. Vegas and I are born on December 31 hence, Capricorn. That's also the twelveth month on the calendar hence the 12th floor was given to us. The 11 heirs also represent one from the zodiacs and owns the building floor that corresponds to the birth month of the heir." Khun Israel added.

"That's interesting. But why did you guys chose to have a restaurant here?" I asked looking at him and peaking to Khun Vegas whom I noticed, looking at me. He looks away as soon as he saw me peaking.

Crazy, bipolar.

"Oh because when this building were just being contructed, I was inseparable to someone who likes eating so much. He suggested that we should have a restaurant on the top floor so we could eat delicious foods while looking at something magnificent." Khun Israel said and smiled at me. I smiled back.

Khun Vegas dropped his spoon so Khun Israel and I looked at him. "What's wrong, Vegas?" Khun asked his twin and Khun Vegas just replied "Nothing." He continued eating and so Khun Israel and I continued talking to each other. 

"Hey Pete, look at the window." Khun Israel said and I obeyed. 

"It's so dark, Khun. What am I seeing?" I asked Khun Israel.

"Just wait, any minute now." Khun Israel replied and I looked back on the window.

Suddenly, lights of different colors flashed in front of me. It's so beautiful.

"Woah..." I said in amazement.

"He asked me to organized that and we would have dinner here." Khun Israel said while looking also on the lights. I take a look again on the lights.

The whole island is covered in lights... Omyghad I bet their electricity bill is hella expensive.

"It's so nice and so beautiful..." I commented and faced Khun Israel. I was taken a back when I saw him facing me too  "Yeah, so beautiful" he said with a dreamy face.

Khun Vegas suddenly just put his glass down with so much power that it made a loud thud and the water splashed on Khun Israel's face.

"I'm done eating, enjoy your food." Khun Vegas said and looked at me with his jaw clenched and walked out.

What on earth is his problem?
