Days went by in a blur. Many dates have taken place, many flowers and chocolate were sent and still, Jungkook was very persistent in his dedication to obtain her love. It will be a total lie if Lisa said she was not looking forward to their dates, but her insecurity gets the best of her. At night she bawled her eyes out. People's perspective and the inner self battle that scared her the most. Sometimes, she longed to go back to her shell. The shell she once cherished and protected with all her might before she decided to become a trainee years ago.

Nobody knows the dark side of Lalisa Bruschweiler. Her family tried to ignore their past so that Lisa can bear the burden she carried for her family. She sacrificed a lot for her family after that terrible accident took place years ago. A tragedy that changed her into someone she wished she was not. Her late twin sister. The Lalisa Bree Manoban Bruschweiler.

"Congratulations Sir. Madam had given birth to two beautiful daughters." The nurse told Sir Bruschweiler while smiling. All the family members that present at the scene were happy to their newest members into the family.

"Thank you, doc. May I see my wife and children now?" He said with his voice vibrated.

"Please wait for a moment. Your wife is still asleep. We will transfer her into her room soon." The female doctor patted his shoulder and left the waiting area.

"Moms, dad, I got two daughters." Tears glimmering in both of his eyes.

"Yes, son. Thankfully, they made it. Let's go to her room then. We'll wait for her there. Come James." James, who was twelve at that nodded happily and followed his family to the said ward.

He was excited because he is already gaining a new title in the family; a big brother. He swore to protect his sisters and spoiled them when he can.

Inside the VIP room, Madam Bruschweiler was still sleeping but soon woke up when her family entered her room. She smiled although feeling a little bit tired.

"Are you okay love?" Asked Sir Bruschweiler.

"I'm super good." She laughed livelily. Her husband then kissed the back of her hand.

"Nurse, can we see the babies?" Mrs Manoban asked the nurse who was checking on Madam.

"Okay, mam. Please wait for a moment."

"Oh my. A twin. This is a blessing. Now we can give names fair and square unlike we did to James." Mr Manoban who was silent from the started laughing and other family members agreed with him.

James's name came out a mix of English and Asian names because the grandparents argued in naming him. The Bruschweiler wanted to name him James while the Manoban wanted to name him Kai and the parents decided to just combine them into James Kai.

Two nurses strolled in by carrying two baby trolley with tagging on their basket. Both are still nameless.

"The babies can't be here for too long. We have to get them back in babies' room after an hour." With that, they left and the grandmothers started to lift each of the girls into their arms. The one in a yellow blanket held by Mrs Manoban, while the one with a green blanket with Mrs Bruschweiler.

"I wanted to name this one Pranpriya." Mrs Manoban said and looking at both parents for approval. They thought for a second and nodded their heads.

"Then, I shall name this one in a green blanket...Lalisa. What about that?"

"Yes. They beautiful." Madam Bruschweiler reached for her daughters and held them close to her chest.
