The Wicked Twins: Who's Who? (SELF-PUBLISHED)

PROLOGUE

It's the 12th day of August 2010 and it was the day that Addison and Allison Torres were given birth. It's their 10th birthday and their parents prepared a children's party for them. Its theme was inspired by a Barbie princess. The surroundings were filled with color pink. Kahit saan mo idako ang iyong paningin ay puro kulay-rosas ang makikita mo. The tables, chairs, party hats, souvenirs, visitor's clothes, balloons, tarpaulin, etc. were all in pink color. It was really pleasing in the eye of the children gathered in the venue which is in the pool area of the Torres' mansion.

The guests were busy taking pictures here and there while the center of the event are still on their room. Hanggang ngayon ay inaayusan pa rin sila ng kanilang makeup artist na binayaran ng kanilang mommy't daddy.

"Princesses, aren't you done yet? The guests have been waiting for almost ten minutes," pagbibigay-alam ng ginang sa mga bata na kanina pang naiinip kahihintay sa kaniyang mga anak na prinsesa kung ituring. Iniwan niya muna ang kanilang mga bisita at hinayaang ang kaniyang asawa na muna ang mag-asikaso sa mga ito habang wala siya.

"We're already done. Right, Ms. Makeup Artist?" pagkausap ni Addison sa kaniyang makeup artist na kasalukuyan nang pinagmamasdan ang kaniyang kabuuang ayos para tiyaking wala na itong nakalimutan pa.

"U-huh! Princess na princess ka na, baby girl," the makeup artist replied which made Addison roll her eyes because of the way the makeup artist addressed her. She hates it when someone call her a baby.

"Mrs. Torres, pwede na po ninyo silang isama," pagbaling ng makeup artist sa ginang na nakatayo malapit sa may pinto.

"Great! Babies, come here," pagkuha ng ginang sa atensyon ng mga bata.

Agad namang sumunod ang magkapatid at mabilis na tinawid ang pagitan nilang mag-iina. Nang makalapit sa kanilang mommy ay magkasabay nila itong ginawaran ng halik sa magkabilang pisngi nito.

"Mom, we're not babies anymore. We're now a girl," wika ni Allison na katulad ng kakambal niya ay ayaw ring tinatawag siyang baby. Para kasi sa kanilang magkapatid ay nasa tamang edad na sila at hindi na sila baby. Hindi naman na ito nakakapagtaka lalo pa't mature na sila kung kumilos, magsalita at mag-isip para sa edad nila.

"Addison, baby, you and Allison are just ten. You are still my babies," giit ng kanilang mommy at pinanggigilan pa ang kanilang mga pisngi.

"Mom, it's Allison. She's Addison," pagtatama ni Allison sa kaniyang mommy at itinuro pa ang kakambal na si Addison na tango lamang ang naging tugon.

"Oh. Sorry, baby. It's just that you look exactly the same," their mom reasoned out which made the both of them pout in annoyance.

"Yeah, right. You've been saying that since we're seven I guess," Addison answered in a sarcastic voice.

"Because that's the truth. You are really a carbon copy of each other," their mom defended.

"Okay, enough with this. Let us now go downstairs to get the party started," their mom diverted the topic.

"Yey! It's party time!" the twin exclaimed in excitement. Their mood altered in an instant upon hearing the word 'party'.

Agad na silang nagtungo ng pool area na mag-iina. Nauunang maglakad ang kambal habang nakasunod sa kanila ang mommy nila na napapailing na lang habang masayang pinagmamasdan ang mga anak niyang nagsi-swing pa ang magkahawak nilang mga kamay habang naglalakad. Halata ang excitement sa mga ito kaya naman ay ganoon na lamang ang tuwa ng kanilang mommy dahil matagal na nilang pinaghandaan ang araw na ito at masaya siyang makitang masaya ang mga anghel niya.

Nang nasa sliding door na ang kambal patungo ng pool area ay sinalubong sila ng kanilang Tita Margaret, ang nakatatandang kapatid ng kanilang mommy.

"Oh my gosh! Is this Addison? Ang ganda-ganda mo na, hija," tuwang-tuwang salubong ng kanilang tita at pinanggigilan ang pisngi ni Allison saka niya binalingan ng tingin ang katabi nitong si Addison. "And Allison, gosh! Para kang prinsesa!" bulalas nito.
