Double edged

Chapter 4.

Navia's POV
I can't just shut out the thought of the hazel eyed boy at the mall. He was so sweet to have helped knowing fully well that I hit him. Well I think it's just in me to flirt. The guy was so scared when I started flirting. I can still remember the way his eyes went wide in shock. Such a weirdo.
He just kept looking at Skai. I can't blame him, everyone looks at Skai even though we have the same face. I don't know what's so attractive about her. Skai is so naive and she's a fashion blunder. I think that last part is a lie though, Skai can dress but she wears a lot of extra modest clothes.
Tommorow, I will spend most of my time in bed to relax for today's stress and on Monday we will just go to school again. I really can't wait to get to school and make new friends.
As we got home, our cars had arrived at the garage and the dumb emergency boxes. As I entered, the first thing I noticed was the sitting room. Mum and dad had put all the boxes away and they had set a section of the sitting room. Trust my parents for that.
"Dad, we're back", I said knocking on the door of their room. It's so amazing the way the room has changed. I saw mom feeding the closet with her few clothes. The closet will be probably close to empty because most of their clothes got burnt.
"Mum and dad I'm sorry for being such a jerk and causing you trouble", I blurted out.
"Awwn, it's okay dear. We would get some clothes by tomorrow. Your dad ordered clothes online and they will be dropping them off tomorrow", my mom said. I knew she was pained about the incident because she couldn't take many things out of the fire but she did well in concealing it. I sighed in relief knowing dad ordered the clothes. Mum had a very bad sense of fashion and trend.
As soon as I ate the pizzas we bought on our way, I just went up and slept immediately.
**************
I thought I was going to sleep till noon but my mom kept on screaming about the new paint so I stood up so early and started painting my room. Blue unlike Sky's purple and pink decor. I felt it was so childish and girly of course.

Skai's POV
"Brrggh", my alarm rang out. I hurried out of my duvet. I don't do this usually. I normally would have done a lot of rolling before I stand up but it's my first day in the new school and first impressions last longer as they say. I took a deep breath and took in the sight of my room. Lavender purple and baby pink. It was so beautiful and girly even though Navia thought it was lame. The center rug is pink while the bean bag and my duvet is purple. It was a sight to take in.
I brushed my teeth and laid my new clothes for inspection. Black denim jeans, white trainers and a pink shirt that read,"We run the world". The new school doesn't use uniform or dress code unlike my former school where we had dress code for each day.
I think in a normal family, I'm supposed to check up my sister. Sometimes, I like to act normal even though I can never forgive what she did to me through out my life.
"Navy, are you up?", I asked knocking gently. I saw my mom smile at the end of the stairs. She likes when I do stuff like this. Like check up on my sibling. I said "I" because I'm the only one that does it.
"Morning sunshine", she said.
"Good morning mum", I answered excitedly. I was starting school today so I am supposed to be excited to meet new people, right?
"You guys should have fun time on your first day. I and your dad will be leaving anytime soon. Breakfast is on the dining", she said in a breath. "We might come back very late but we will make sure we do, okay?. Bye. Tell your sister I love her", she said after thought.
"Navy, up for school", I said knocking.
"Good morning, Sky", she said opening the door enough for me to see her outfit. She must have up since 4 o'clock. Ok, that's a sarcasm but she must have been up so early to do her make up.
"Good morning angels", my dad said as we settled on the dining table.
"It's your first day at school and I spoke with your new principal about you guys. You're good, I promise you guys", he continued.
"Thanks dad", we said.
*****************
I was actually thinking Navia's skirt was short until I saw a way shorter one at the school dining hall. I found it difficult to make friends so I probably have to beg for a seat from people that don't look mean. I got the new students stare but it was from few people. I guess they were use to getting transfer students.
No, that table is full of meanies
No, I can't sit there. Ok, right here.
"Hi, guys", I said trying not to stutter
"Hi", they all replied smiling.
"I hope you don't mind if I share your seat with you?",
"Yeah, sure. Sit", the girl beside me said trying to make space for me. I think I saw someone like her in my history class. Or maybe it's her but she had a different clothes on.
"Sup, guys", a familiar face broke my thoughts. I looked from the two faces. It hit me loud and clear immediately. Twins!
Strikingly beautiful girls. They were identical just like Navia and I.
"Hi, I am Mahaadah", she said softly. I looked closely as I took her hands. If I wasn't dreaming they had hijabs on. I mean hijab like the scarf Muslim girls wear over their head. It was hard to know because they had hoodies on.
"I'm Maheerah", the other twin said.
"Hi, I'm Skai", I said shaking them and others on the table. I looked at Navia from afar. I bet she was having a good time because of her plastered smile. I don't make friends with her or let people know we're related in a setting like this except if I want to be embarrassed at school on my first day. People would just naturally know because of the physical resemblance. I bet she's having a good time and I'm not ready to be a spoiler.
