Apparently Alexa didn't come home when she was supposed to
She didn't even picked up her phone when Mama, Daddy and Axie calling her
Which resulted in everyone's calling her now because Axel freaking out on them to find his twin sister and Mama calling Anna to see if the girl was in Anna's suite
And after 20/25 th call on Harrison, he finally picked up
"THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU? WHERE ARE YOU GUYS?" Axel shouted immediately after Harry answered the call. The parents snapped their heads in his direction
"We're at the park, I was chasing your sister because she's suddenly taken an interest in the duck and chasing them! All aroundddd the park!" Harry said giving the excuse
Axel immediately shut his mouth and close his eyes in resignation
That something Alexa totally would do. He knows it. And he knows Harry just trying to keep Alexa protected
"What? What's happening?" Mama asked worriedly at seeing Axel's resignation expression
"It's time to go home Haz. It's dinner time" Axel's response
"Yeah, we're on our way back to the hotel now"
"Alright, tell her she's in deep fucking trouble with me now" Axel said before hanging up the phone call
"Apparently your daughter was chasing the duck all evening and Harry, being Harry, ran with her to make sure she won't do anything further stupid" Axel informed turning to look at Mama and Daddy.
Both parents just stand there, looking at him with their eyes blinking slowly trying to process the information given.
They are still learning more things about the twins for sure. But it does not make them not surprised each time they're learning it.
"Yep, she's your mother's daughter" Daddy said after recovering from his initial shock and breathing out of relief at hearing how the girl's actually safe and not in danger.
"Excuse me! She's got your weird genes!" Mama scoffed in offended at Daddy's statement to which Daddy just smirk teasingly at her
"She's in so much trouble," Axel said mumbling. He didn't like it when his twin sister didn't pick up the phone call. He needs to know where she is, all the time.
They had a bad past, of course he's gonna be overprotective.
"She definitely is," Mama agreed with Axel. She is so worried if something happened to the girl.

"All I'm saying is, if you see ducks, wouldn't you be going to chase them? Especially after seeing how they run away from you!? It's like they're challenging you saying 'hah suck it human! you can't chase me!' Because that's totally what the ducks did to me" Alexa said
She arrived at the hotel penthouse where she and her family stay at, 20 minutes ago, Harrison dropped her off and apologized to Mama and Daddy for it.
And they are currently having dinner while Mama and Daddy interrogating Alexa
"Alexandrea, you have to pick up your phone" Mama said with her pointed look
"I knowww! But you know the reason why"
"It's not a good reason. If you hear my caller notification, you stop and pick it up" Axel exclaimed, looking at his twin sister in disbelief and annoyance. He's worried and scared
And Alexa know that tone and the reasoning behind it all too well, making her face softened at the sight of her twin brother
"I'm sorry Pupu. I just got excited" She said mumbling, feeling bad for making her twin brother scared and worried
"It's alright" He said, sighing slightly knowing she didn't do it on purpose and he knows his twin sister all too well.
He got up from his seat to go to his room
"Bud, you didn't finish your food yet" Chris said, pointing to the still half full plate of dinner
"I'm tired, I need to go to sleep" Axel's dry response as he walk to his room and lock the door after it
Alexa hang her head low, playing with her fork and the content of the dinner in her plate, rice and sesame honey chicken, feeling guilty
"Next time just pick up your phone yeah?" Chris said standing up as he picked up both his and Axel's plate to go bring it to the boy.
Anyone other than Alexa that can go through this mood of Axel? Definitely his dad.
Like how Mama can go through Alexa's mood.
And now it just left Mama and Alexa at the dining table. Mama hasn't really say anything other than the scolding which just makes Alexa feels worse
"I didn't mean to I swear Mama"
"Mushy I know. We all just worried, baby. We're in a different country and you're with someone else other than us" Mama explained in her soft voice didn't want the girl to think she was mad.
"Haz is safe. He takes care of me. He is basically the other Axie to me but difference is we didn't share the same blood"
"Mushy, from what I've been told, you guys haven't been spending time together for 5 years now. Anything can change you know in a person"
"Mama, he's safe. He's the most caring and soft person ever. He chase me around this evening to make sure I somehow didn't get in 'accident' whatever it is that he meant by that word" She said with her nose scrunch in annoyance
If they aren't talking about serious matters, Scarlett would've chuckle and roll her eyes at her daughter not admitting that she's accident prone.
"Just don't do it again please. And, from now on, me and your Dad need your location all the time. Bring your powerbank in case your phone battery dies when you're out"
"Would that make you and Daddy at ease?"
"It will bring us a relief to know where you and your brother were all the time, yes. I'm sorry if you feel like we're hovering your life but I told you I wanna compensate from whatever things we missed out on and for you and your brother to know that this is how 'parents' feels like" Scarlett explained, hoping that the girl would understand
Which, of course, Alexa understands completely and she actually loves it. She loves this kind of attention from their parents. This is what she and Axel were wanting for when growing up.
"Of course Mama" Alexa responded with a soft smile to which Scarlett responded with a grateful, proud and happy smile to her daughter.
Mama really changed and showed how serious she was to be in her life these past couple of months. And Alexa could see it.
"So.... You speak highly of 'Haz' huh?" Mama asked, quirking a teasing eyebrow at her 15 year old daughter
Alexa just give Mama an eyebrow raising in amusement
"My baby girl has a crush?" She asked with her famous smirk
"Good god!" Alexa said, groaning in exasperation. Mama was not the first one to acknowledge her relationship with Harry like that. Gwyneth and Lizzie have been interrogating the girl when they did their rehearsal together.
"I have Axie and now Daddy on my end whenever it comes to 'boy' Mama" Alexa responded
"I didn't hear you say no, babe" Scarlett asked with a chuckle at her daughter red face
"Mamaaaaaaaaaaaa!" She said with her whiny voice to which making her Mama fall into an erupting giggles at hearing Alexa's whiny voice. It somehow melted Mama's heart, to have this conversation and witness the cuteness of her daughter's face.
