"Soul?" He asked his twin, while the others were already in their rooms. It was late at night already when the twins were sitting at the kitchen table, drinking tea.
"Hmm?" "I don't know what I should ask you first...." he said. She looked confused at him. "Huhh?" She asked.
"Are you feeling better?" He then asked finally. She smiled. "Yes, much better!" Her twin only nodded, starring back on his cup.
"What else?" She asked. "Huhh?" "You said you don't know what to ask me first.. so.. there is at least a second question" she said, looking at her twin.
"A-ahh, y-yeah.... never mind..." "Chanie..." She looked at him. "I see something is bothering you, and I don't have to be your twin to know that!" She said.
"I don't wanna scare you..." "what do you mean?" He looked at her. "What happened when hyung brought you home today?" He asked.
Now, the girl didn't know how to answer. She breathed in to answer, but no words were coming out, so she sighed.
Her twin still looked at her. "Someone grabbed my wrist and turned me around.... I was lucky that oppa was with me..."
"Who was that man?" "I don't know.... But oppa said that he smelled like alcohol. He even walked like he was drunk. Just some drunk stranger obviously." She looked at her cup.
He wanted to hug his twin, but pulled back again before touching her. "What?" She asked wondering. "I-I don't wanna scare you... I don't want you to distance yourself again... you did that way too often..."
She had to smile at that, hugging him. It took him by surprise, but he put his arms around her too. "You can always hug me, Chanie! You don't scare me!" She said.
"Well... that was different in the beginning you came here...." "yahh!" she looked at him a bit strict. "Sorry..." he said. She pulled away looking at him.
"I just don't want to be the reason you are scared..." he said. "You are not... but.... someone else is..." "Taeyong hyung..." she gulped, nodding hesitating.
"But actually Jaehyun oppa too... he is scary when he is mad. I am afraid he attacks the others because of me... that is the only reason I distance myself from the others."
"Yeah... I can even understand..." "but I try not to be..." she added. "Huhh?" "The boys.... really grow to my heart!" She chuckled.
"So... I try to be around them, to get used to them... to not be scared.. especially him..." she scartched her upper arm, showing her twin she still feels uncomfortable thinking about it.
"He won't harm you, Yaya... he tries to be nice to you." "I still have the feeling that he doesn't want me to be around..." she said.
"That is not true. He just doesn't know how to open up to you. He is just careful. He wants to protect us. We are his family. And you are too! He just doesn't know yet. But for the rest of us, you are apart of this family already!" He said, which made her smile.
She took her twins hand, leaning her head on his upper arm. He stroke over her forehead, kissing her head in a calming manner.
"Huh? Why are you two still awake?" A voice asked, coming down the stairs. "Oh! Hyung!" Sungchan said. The girl sat straight again, looking at the male that just came into the kitchen.
"Uhmm... Soul and me drank some tea and talked." The boy answered. "That late at night? It's far past midnight."
"I-I woke up and didn't know where to go.... all of you were in bed already" she said unsure, looking at the table.
