"Are you two nervous?"
Alice chuckled to her two kids, pacing back and forth to no end. Even her husband wasn't immune to their anxiety.
"Yeah..."
Alden answered for them both, as the door creaked wide open to reveal the people they call family by not blood.
"Arthur! Alden!"

"Damnit, Jasmine. It should be us who's rushing in to you all, not you guys."
I pointed out with tears on my eyes while Jasmine, who got more pretty than before, hugged us tighter as if we would dissapear again.
"Looks like she got some maturity after we left."
"Fuck off, Krensh."
The bastard Adam himself gasped with offense at my swear word but soon laughed alongside Helen, wiping some stray tears on his face.
"You broke his tough man facade, Ald."
Helen noted and ignored Adam's glare, patting us both when Jasmine finally loosened up. And we were also both able to see the new parents, Angela and Durden, with their triplets at the back, both crying in happiness.
"Y-You two..."
"Angela! Durden!"
Brother shouted and hugged them both, as I commented on how big (Durden) and pretty (Angela) both had become. We soon had introductions to their little babies (Delilah, Michael, and Aiden) who were barely crawling as we also introduced Ellie and Lilia to the Twin Horns + Angela and Durden's kids, so it was a happy reunion.
Father, Mother, Uncle Vincent, and Auntie Tabitha didn't interfere with the boisterous occasion, simply happy that we can catch up to the Twin Horns (which were a lot of information in these three years by the way but that's a story for the future).

"...Brother, am I suppose to wear this?"
"Yep, dress code. Black and White for the hosts, remember?"
"But, does it have to be necessarily a dress...?"
"Uh... yeah– WAIT DON'T BURN IT! ALDEN!"
Yep, that's right. I tried to burn the dress given to me by the servants. But I am NOT keen on shoulder exposure this youg, okay?! So I had to give that black dress to Lilia and Aunt Tabitha was kind enough to lend me a white version of Brother's own attire because she figured why not do that since Mother mentioned I'd never wear any dresses, which made a lot of people back in Ashber think that I was a guy in first glance. Thank the Ego for her instincts.
