"I want to talk to you about something."

"Is it serious?" He asked.

"Let's wait till morning okay?" She asked and he shrugged in reply. "So later, when we are alone."

"Okay." He responds, stroking her hair softly with his fingers, also locking eyes with her.

She smiled. He was good at creating effects out of her just by staring at her. That looks. It made her feel like melting under those sexy eyes of his. He was just beautiful to stare at. And she felt so proud knowing he was hers. And with the way he was staring at her - that look she hadn't gotten used to - it made her heart want to burst out of her chest.

"We will talk more in the morning. You should rest." She told him. And she leaned closer to him and pecked him on the cheek. Then she climbed down from the bed and left the room.

Demilade was coming out of his room when he started hearing loud chatter of laughter and running footsteps. He walked out of his room to see the twins running from the hallway leading to Lola's room down the curved stairs case. He seems shocked with how fast they are despite they were running on stairs.

But he was afraid that they might slip and fall. So he went downstairs after them.

"Hey." He said to get their attention but they didn't seem to hear him. They were busy running around a big vase of flowers that was on the floor. "Girls." He said a bit louder and this time they stopped and turned to look at him.

Immediately, their face turned guilty. They assumed he was angry at them.

"We are sorry." They quickly apologized. "Please don't tell sister Lola."

He walked closer to them. Then stooped to their level. They were still in their identical night pajamas and he guessed they just woke up. They were fraternal twins but they were still alike in a kind of way. He could see they have a slight resemblance with Lola and that makes his lips curl up to a small smile.

"I'm not angry at you. But you girls shouldn't run around like that. You can slip, fall, and get injured. You don't want that, do you?" He asked.

"No." They shake their head.

"Good." He commented. "How was your night?"

Their countenance changed and they quickly replied.

"It was good," Tito said with a grin.

"I enjoyed my sleep." The other remarked. "The bed was so soft." And Demilade smiled.

"That's good to know. So what are you girls up to?" He asked.

"We just finished watching SpongeBob. We want big sis to come to change the channel."

"She seized the remote." The other one complained.

Demilade nodded in understanding but gave no remarks to that. "What about your brother?"

"He is in his room." Tife retorted.

"Talking to his girlfriend." Tito completed and smiled.

"Loveth," Tife said in a whisper to Demilade and Demilade furrowed his brow in confusion. He didn't understand what they mean.

The other seems to notice and she told him. "That's his girlfriend's name."

"Oh!" He exclaimed in realization.

"He told us not to tell Daddy." And they giggled to themselves.

Demilade nodded with a small smile on his face. The children were amusing.
