Beam call Mook's phone to tell her brother that he would be departing to Thailand tomorrow.

"Really? Sorry to bother you Beam but we just don't know how to handle her anymore. She's not talking and eating. Don't worry about anything, I'll arrange everything for you here. See you at the airport then Beam." Her brother replied sounding relief that Beam will be coming to Thailand.

Beam heart clenched hearing about Mook's condition from his brother. But Mook can really be stubborn sometimes so he knows how they feels. He really hopes he can help calming her down so she can receive her treatment.

"Ok then Phi, I'll call you when I arrived." Beam replied and ended their conversation.

Beam made another call to his childhood friends in Thailand to discuss about Mook conditions.

"Pha.. I need you to check something for me. I'll email you shortly. All possiblity. Email me the details if you're done, alright." Beam briefs Phana about Mook's condition and he want Phana to help him to find an expert that can help with Mook's condition right now.

"Mum, I... need to fly to Thailand as soon as possible.... as in to...mo..rrow?" Beam slowly tell her mum who was busy doing the dishes and she suddenly stop when she heard about it.

"Beammm..." His mum turn around scowling at him indicating she's not approving his request. Thailand wasn't a good memories for her. That's why she left for the US.

"Its not about that mum. Its the kids mother, she got into an accident and her brother said her condition wasn't so good. He needs my help with something." Beam explained to his mother so she can calm down her worry.

Her mother gasps hearing the news and immediately hugs Beam. She knew how important that girl is for Beam. His son for instance wasn't very fond of people but to her suprise he grown attached to the twin's mother even asking her to adopt the twin because he can't.

"Awww... I'm sorry to hear that sweetie. You go. I'll take care of everything here. But please.. I'm begging you, don't go see him. He's happy with his family. Don't ruin it for me." Beam got his mother approval but she never forget to warn him about the man.

"Don't worry mum. I won't. He didn't even know I existed anyway." Beam fake a laugh and his mother hugs him. Its always heavy when they started talking about his father.

"Mum is sorry Beammie. You deserve more but please. Not this one." His mother added and Beam just sigh heavily kiss his mum cheek and proceed to find the twin at the resting area.

Now the twin turn..

Lilliane and Mark Vonghipan.

Mook's daughter and son. The twin she gave up for adoption. The one Beam waited 7 years for Mook to say, she wanted them back. The one now he thinks he can no longer returned them back, if Mook decided one day she wanted them back. The twin gives him reason to live, work hard and be happy.

Beam bawl his eyes out crying the first time he's holding Lily in his arm and then Mark. Lily really resemble Mook the most and Mark maybe his dad and no trait of a mixed blood seen, so their father definitely is a hundred percent Asian.

Beam adopt them because he was very sure at that time that Mook will definitely regret her decision one day and he don't want stranger to adopt the twin. But unfortunately till now her one day never comes. Its been seven years and she never mentioned about her children to Beam. Not once! Its make Beam frustrated sometimes and it got him thinking maybe Moe wasn't a mother material, she wasn't married yet and no serious relationship so far.

Beam even took videos everytime the twin reach a milestone of their development. From their first tooth, crawling, walking, talking and enrolled in their kindergarten so Moe didn't feel like she miss any of it.

"Kids.." Beam call for them softly.

"Phi will be somewhere far tomorrow. I don't know when will I go back so I need you two to behave alright. Especially you young girl." Beam informed the twin about his journey and he can see Lily already pouting at Beam's remarks about her naughtiness.

"Phiii.. Let Lily come too.. Lily won't bother with your works." Lily pleas wanting to follow Beam on his journey to Thailand.

"Not this one baby. I'm not working. I'm visiting someone important. She's sick and needs Phi help." Beam explained again hoping Lily will understand but he can see her already sulking.

"You said you will be joining the Smith's Summer Camp this year aren't you. Its not good to break promises. Kayla will be devastated if you didn't come." Beam added using Lily's best friend name. She had been continuously taunting him last month to let her joins the summer camp this year because all her classmates will be joining.

Lily gasps already forgotten about the summer camp. " Alright Daddy! Have a safe journey then. Lily will pray for Daddy's friend to get better." Lily cutely said and she's calling him daddy again.

Its his fault. He told the twin to call him Daddy if they were outside to avoid any unnecessary disturbance because he thinks the ring is not working anymore. People get bold and its irritating him to his core. Using the kids seem to be more effective. So Lily keep calling him that and Beam doesn't mind.

"Now go help grandma wipes the dishes." Beam instruct Lily and she nodded and walk into the kitchen.

Beam turn his gaze to Mark.

"She's not dying or something isn't she?" The other twin talk after he saw Lily entered the kitchen.

"The accident effect her ability to walk. And she was mentally disturbed by the fact." Beam answered Mark's question with his stress face.

"Stupid woman! Did she got drunk? How can she get into an accident." Mark angrily complaint.

Pak!!

"No cursing. She's your mother." Beam flick Mark's forehead and he grimace at the pain.

"Hey Sherlock, wanna come with me? You can finally see how lovely your mother is?" Mark blinks his eyes disbelief that Beam offers to bring him along.

"But Lily?" Mark is afraid of Lily's reaction if she come to know that Beam will be bringing him but not her.

"White lies. Tell her you have a tournament." Beam suggested smiling sheepishly.

"Wow!! What kind of parents lied to their kid. You're despicable." Mark retorts squinting his eyes at his father figure.

"I'm your brother kid." Beam said then chuckled.

"Yeah right!" Mark replied rolling his eyes and walk upstairs to his room then Beam saw Lily tailing him from behind.

Mark..

The different twin. A genius at his age. So matured Beam can have an adult conversation with him. He's very protective about his sister anddd.. he knew about his mother because he's one curious kid. A Sherlock Holmes in the family... Beam smile at the fact.

But little that Beam knows he's been keeping an Enola Holmes in his house too.

"Should I go?" Mark asked his sister who is 4 minutes older than him.

"Hmm.. just go brother. Send me mummy photo and her progress. I'll visit when its time." Lily replied reading an email sent to Beam's computer.

"How are you feeling about this?" Mark asked again, eyes still scanning words by words written in the email.

Lily just smile bitterly while looking at Mark.

"She's mum.. so.. try being nice to her okay. She's not well. Maybe she's not as bad as Daddy Beam said." Lily said trying to assure his brother that their mother wasn't a witch.

"I'll try. I'm rough by nature so..." Mark replied.

"Ugh!! Don't act. I know you love her." Lily retorts mocking his brother.

Mark rolls his eyes and bring out his luggage.

Here comes nothing!!
