Camilla's POV

I can't sleep and the weird kind of feeling bothers me. I remember my mother, wondering if she's okay. Dolly told me she gives everything my mother needs, the nostalgia saddens me always. I tried different positions to catch my sleep, but gosh! I really can't. I need to have a complete beauty rest for tomorrow. The James clan invited me for a dinner, it will be my first time to meet Charlie's family. Worries popped on my head and I think it won't help for now.

I dragged my feet on the cold tiles of floor and walk out side my room. Drinking milk is what I think could help me to obtain sleep, while walking down the stairs, the huge wooden carved door caught my attention. It's my parent's room and it's exactly 12 a.m, I think they're already sleeping. I stepped back and pace towards their room. My fist suddenly knocks on their door, oh no! what I have done? I turned my back and about to walk away but I heard the door clicks open.

"Hya?" my mother calls. Geez! what will I do? how will I explain to her why I knock on their door in the middle of the night and in shining light rays of full moon?

I turned to face her, she's wearing a beautiful silver silk night gown, her untied beautiful long hair is quite unfamiliar on my sight, since she always lifts it into bun. We're very much alike, just an older version of me.

"Uhm.. Mum, may I sleep with you?" I have nothing to reason out, it just came out from my mouth. What shall I do now?

"Sure honey" she smiles on me.

When I enter the room, my jaw almost drop on the deepest part of the earth. Though it's quite dark, the dimmed light of lamps made the interiors of the room visible. Wow! as in wow! this room is really huge.

"Hya" my father calls.

"Did I wake you up Daddy?" I asked. He shook his head but I think I really did. They asked me why I want to sleep with them.

I said I just want to.. maybe this is also my opportunity to experience sleeping with these people who gave life to me.

"The last time you slept with us was when you're two years old" my Dad utters.

Really? that's was twenty years ago.

"We noticed your sweetness towards us this past few days since you came back" my Mum said.

Hya was not a sweet daughter to them? My twin is really weird. They can now notice the changes, how can I manage these things now?

"We love what you are now honey" my Mum continues. A jolt on my heart suddenly wants me to produce tears. Oh please don't cry Camilla! you're braver than hulk remember? but I'm really touched.

"Thanks Mum, I love you both" I respond and now my eyes are inviting me to go to sleep.

"We love you more Hya" my Dad tap my head. I closed my eyes. If this is a dream, I don't want to end it. Only the presence of my parents can make me feel better and sleep as comfortable as this.

Narrator's POV

As she opens her eyes, she look at her both sides. Olivia and Leo aren't there already but she scans the place and the brightness of the atmosphere made the whole room more breath taking. The bedroom of her parents is more likely a whole house, everything is there and the portrait of their wedding hangs on the glass wall. All the decorations are perfect, Hya jumped off from the bed and about to leave the room, but the door opens before she was able to open it.

"Hya" Olivia appears holding a tray of foods.

Hya almost drool as she smells the aroma of the beef steak. Her mother invites her to eat breakfast inside their room, she placed the food on the table near the big window and the fresh air from outside blows on them.
