The Twin Brothers

The next day, laughter filled the kitchen. The little girl couldn’t help but laugh seeing Felix shower with flour. The guards with them also chuckle seeing it. Right now, they using Matthias’s kitchen house. While they met in the living room, the twin thought she could bake something to fill her bored some.

“F–Felix, why… why you–” She couldn’t finish her sentences due to her laughter.

“Are you that bad at baking?” Adam chuckles. He throws him the small towel. “I couldn’t believe you stupid in this thing.” He mumbles.

Felix sighs, wiping his face. “I’m fucking bad in this thing, Dar. I don’t think you need my help. So, I’m going to sit and watch.” He sits on the barstool, still trying to get the flour off of his hair.

“Awww. I–It okay. I–I will t–teach you n–next time.” She smiles.

“You are too nice, Dar. But no thanks. Baking is not my thing.” He shrugs his shoulder with an innocent smile.

“Yeah. Not my thing your ass.” Adam rolls his eyes. “Just say that you want to be the one who wants to taste the cream.” He put down the bowls and leans forwards to him. “Isn’t that right, Felix Elyas?”

Suddenly, Felix slaps him across the face making Liana gasp. But the guard seems used to it. “How could you!?” Adam dramatically gasps as his hand is on his cheek.

“I don’t even slap that hard. Stop being a bitch.” He rolls his eyes, grabbing the KitKat jar. Adam wipes his fake tears and acts like a woman. He waits for his next act while eating the chocolate.

“Fine!! I know you have someone other than me!!” Adam yells. He randomly grabs a piece of paper from his pocket and slams it on the counter. “Here. Starting this day, we’re no longer married. I want a divorce!! I hate you, Felix Elyas!!” He makes a crying sound while running out of the kitchen with silly moves.

“Too much.” Felix sighs.

“Is he… g–going to b–be okay?” Liana asks.

“Oh, Dar. He’s fine. Sometimes, I thinking why we haven’t sent him to the mental hospital.” He raises one eyebrow.

“That h–harsh.” Liana pouting.

The male chuckles at her innocent statement. “You are so cute, Dar. No, wonder why those two dickhead like you.” He leans forward with his elbows on the counter.

Like her?

As if in a friendly way?

“I like my friend also!!” She jumped while clapping her hands.

“Someone misunderstood the relationship,” Felix mutters to himself and quietly chuckles.

Then, the three guys came in. Liana couldn’t hide her excitement so she grabs her cupcake and rushed toward the twins. “L–Look!! I–I made i–it!!” She beams.

Enzo bends to her height. “That was great, baby. My baby is a talented baker. Right? I’m so proud of you, love.” He said, giving a loving smile to his baby.

She giggles and gives the cupcake to Leo. “T–Taste it.”

“Thanks, little one.” Leo smiles and took a bite of the cupcake. The girl waiting for his feedback, nervously looking at him. “Mmm, it was delicious!! I was never a fan of sweets but I think you made it different. You did great work, Bambi.” He ruffles her hair making the girl looks down sheepishly.

“Do you have some for me, sweetie?” Matthias asks.

“Yes, M–Matty. I–I bake for e–everyone!!” She opens her arms to show the cupcake on the tray. Felix already stuffing his mouth with a delicious cupcake while Enzo looking at him with disgust.

“Save it for the others, dude.” He snatches the cupcake from Felix causing him to pout. “She said it for everyone. Not for only you.” He rolls his eyes.

“Geez. I know it. Just sit down and enjoy this sweet taste your girl made.” Felix snatch it back and took a bite.

They all sit on the bar stool except for Liana. Since the bar stool only has four-seat. But that didn’t bother her. She is happy to see people enjoying her baking food. It is one of the reasons why she enjoys baking. Seeing people have a smile on their faces because of her dessert, already make her day.

“Baby, come here.” Enzo makes a sign with his index finger. She shuffles to him shyly, without looking at him. “I bet this baking must be tiring you out. Let’s have a seat and enjoy your baking.” He pulls her to his lap not missing a squeak from the girl.

Matthias smiled at the scene. A little girl is on Enzo’s lap, Leo feeding her with a small piece of cupcake, and love on the twin’s eyes whenever they look at Darliana. “I start to think why you guys haven’t made a move.” He spokes.

“Weird right?” Felix agreed with his statements. Liana looks at them with confusion, don’t have an idea of what they talking about. “I mean… they make it too obvious.” He shrugs his shoulder.

“Fuck off, both of you.” Enzo rolls his eyes.

“W–What are you guys t–talking… about?” Liana asks. The two guys look away, didn’t want to answer the girl’s question. She turns to the twin, demand for an answer.

“Ignore those two, little one. They just two idiots.” Leo said. She just continues eating.

While they eating, Enzo remembers something. He repositions the girl on his lap, facing his brother so that he can feed her well. Even though they didn’t want her to eat too much sugar but today is an exception.

“Mat, do you know who Thaver’s private doctor is?” He asks.

“Private doctor?” Mat leans forward, “I know who. I did meet him once but I’m not sure if he retired already or what, En. It might take time to find him.” He explains.

“Can you give his information to us? We will find him. You did too much already.” Enzo states. His attention move to the girl when heard her coughing but Leo already asking for her drink. “Maybe he got some DNA of Thaver? I just guest.”

“No. You are right.” Mat abruptly stood up. “I just remember Thaver’s wife once sick. Like ill. The doctor got her blood to run a taste for whatever he need though. He must have it.” He claps his hand with an exciting smile on his face.

His words just give the twins hope to find the lost mafia princess. They exchange look with a smirk. Look like they got a work to do. The nice moment faded when Alex came in. The twin expression changes into hard. Liana couldn’t hide her fearful expression. The man who holds her notices her tense body.

“Hey, it seems like we got exciting news.” He smirks and stands beside his father. Even Matthias’s expression changed. “What do I miss?” Alex’s eyes landed on the girl.

“Nothing, Alex. I told you to go to training. What are you doing here?” His father crosses his arms looking at him with a stern face.

“Dad, come on. If you involve in this, I’m part of this also. I’m your son.” Alex states.

It is not that they didn’t want but just for his safety. Matthias didn’t want the twins killing his son just because of his stupid behavior and potty mouth. Second, his son is a troublemaker and happy to be influenced.

“That was unfair, dad.” He scoffs.

“Don’t you see? Even your dad couldn’t trust you with this work. Just because you acting so irresponsible.” Enzo spokes without taking off his glare on him.

Alex chuckles, “Just because I touch this bitch, doesn’t mean–”

SLAMS!!

“Don’t you dare to call her bitch.” Leo said through his gritting teeth. The girl squirmed in Enzo’s lap, wanting to escape from this situation.

“I never thought you guys are serious over this little girl.” He chuckles. He leans forward on the counter, looking at Liana up and down. “But I’m not blaming you guys though. She looks so good to fuc-” Once again, he is cut off by Leo pointing his gun at Alex’s forehead.

“Finish that sentence. I dare you.” Enzo stood up with the girl attached to his hip. He pats his shoulder signing him to calm down even though he also wanted to kill this guy. “Fuck.” He cursed under his breath.

“Bring Liana out. I can feel her body tense.” Enzo passes her to him after he slides his gun behind his back. “Sometime, we can’t waste our time on pussy beggar like him.” He spokes it bluntly. Leo brings the girl out without hesitation.

Alex’s expression changed. He narrows his eyes on him. While his father already messaging his forehead, stressing over his stupid son’s behavior. He wandering why he has this type of son. “Alex, enough. I try to save your ass. Go back to the training room.” Matthias demands with his strict voice.

He didn’t move but instead, he keep staring at Enzo. “I don’t understand why you guys are the ones who take over Thaver’s clan. It’s supposed to be someone else.” He said with chuckles.

“Someone else? Who? You?” Enzo points at him with a smirk. “Wow. You are good at making jokes. It was hilarious!!” He laughed, clapping his hand. But when Alex didn’t laugh but glared at him, he stop.”Oh. You are profound.” He clears his throat but is more sarcastic.

“I can’t trust you handling this type of business yet, Alex. You still need more training.” Matthias crosses his arms. “You don’t even pass your test yet.” He sighs.

Alex rolls his eyes. “It’s not supposed to be me. It can be Damien.” When he says that, his father and Enzo look at him.

“We all know we can’t trust him either. He can be much worse than you, Lex.” His father sighs.

“Yeah, whatever. But if you ask my opinion, I will choose Damien. Other than…” Alex looks at Enzo with disgusted and hateful eyes. “… two twins who go with their alpha vibes.” With that, he walks out of the kitchen.

Matthias sighs and gazes at the guy in front of him, “I’m sorry about him, En. He can be… childish sometimes.” He apologized.

“It’s fine. He should feel glad I can’t kill him. If he’s not your related, his head already in my head.” Enzo stood up and walks away with Felix following him behind. Somehow, the old man can feel shivers. He knows what Enzo said, he will do in reality.

The car door slams shut. He let out a sigh. He was handling people like Alex tires him out. He can lose his temper any minute if he didn’t remind himself that guy is related to someone he closes.

“Ennie?” Liana’s soft voice called. The nickname makes his heart melt.

“Ennie–what?” Felix snorts with a laugh.

She gasp thinking it was ridiculous to call Lorenzo that. “I–I’m sorry…”

A smack was delivered to Felix’s head from behind by Leo causing him to groan in pain. Adam laughed so hard beside him and showed him thumbs up.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“No need to be sorry, baby. I like that nickname.” Enzo caressed her chubby cheeks. “But, it wouldn’t be fair if Leo don’t get one. Don’t you think so?” He arches his eyebrows in an amused tone.

“Mmm… L–Leonardo will b-be… Lili!!!” She beams. But Felix burst into laughter hearing that only earning a smack from Leo again. Liana looks at him with nervousness. “I–I think…. i–it sounds like g–girly name.” She fiddled with the hem of her sweater.

“I like Lili.” Leo simply said. A small smile appeared on his face when she grins.

“Adam, go to the main house,” Enzo said.

“Aye aye!!” He starts driving to the twin’s house.

Liana plays with Leo’s ring while her other hand holds Enzo’s hand. Since she sit between them, it was easy for her. While Leo just stare at the girl with adoring eyes. Just one thing he was afraid of. She ate too much sweet just now and if she slip into her little space, it will be the end for them. She will be hyperactive and hard to handle but full of enjoyment.

“Can you stop putting heartbroken song?” Felix groaned changing the song back.

“And can you stop changing my song!? It was my turn!! Your turn was yesterday already!!!” Adam keeps one hand on the steering wheel while his other hand tries to slap Felix’s hand away.

“If we got an accident, I’m not hesitated to kill you both.” Enzo spokes.

“Enzo!! Tell Felix to stop!!” Adam whines like a child. Liana looks at Enzo and he already closing his eyes with an annoyed expression. “Such an asshole are you!!!” He yells.

“I’m not!!!” Felix yells back.

After a few minutes of arguing, no one set a song. The radio turns off and the two guys in front pouting like a child. Enzo got faded up so he told decided no one can play a song. The ride was silent. The silence only made Liana bored. She takes her bag and pulls out the bunbun.

“Bunbun.” Liana shows the stuffie to Leo.

“Yes, little one. It’s bunbun.” He smiles, stroking her hair. She giggles and plays with the bunbun. He narrows his eyes on her, wondering is in her little space or not. “Little one, are you in little space?”

“Nope. I–I just b–bored.” Liana giggles. But it seems like she slowly slips into it.

Leo joins her chatting with bunbun more like joining her playing. There’s a time Felix join also. Enzo was about butt in but his phone rang causing his brother to attention to him.

“It was Damien.” He said. Leo grunts. “What.”

“I just want to ask about the process of Thaver’s clan,” Damien said, turning his chair to the big glass behind him. “Just wondering if you guys got some… good news.”

“You don’t involve in this shit, Damien.” Enzo clenched his fist.

“Woah. Why not? That’s so… I don’t think rude is the right word.” He chuckles.

“If there’s nothing important, I’m going to–wait no!! Don’t eat that!!” The little girl has a cigarette in his hand and is about to go right into her mouth. She giggles and it seems like she is already in her little space. Leo and Felix try to take the cigarettes in her hand. Where she got it, they didn’t know. It must be in one of the seat pockets.

“Sound like you guys busy.” Damien frowns.

“Whatever.” Enzo is about to hang up but the guy says something makes him stiff.

“Oh well. Good luck on finding Thaver’s… daughter.” With that, the phone line cut off.

Enzo frowns and slowly pulls his phone back from his ears. His brother tries his best to take the cigarettes out of Liana’s hand, curious about Enzo’s expression. “What’s wrong? Damien got on your nerve again?” He asks.

How did he know that? Who gave him information about this? Something is wrong and there’s someone helping him with this. Enzo poked his inner cheek with his tongue.

“We got another job.”

Leo frowns.

“There’s rat around us.”
