Today is a busy day. At least, for all the people on their own works. There are some people who are lucky that they have their day off. Some of these people prefer to stay at home to rest with their family while others are at the mall, celebrating a special day for their loved one; the only person they could never change for anything for the world: their mothers.

The situation at the mall is just as, or more, busy than ever. Each stalls of foods, clothing, jewelry and many others had their own promos. Discount on one, buy one take one on another, while you'll see some have 'if you buy this, have this one free' type of promo just to make customers buy to them.

Two individuals of the same height, build, age and blood wandered around the mall. No, their reason for coming in on this very day is not to celebrate anything; their reason is because one is hungry and the other followed, even if he didn't want to. They are twins and are identical. The only difference between them is their attitudes - of course, their hairstyles -one has cowlick and short, blond hair while the other one has longer, blond hair and a strand of hair with a curl that is almost separated from the rest of his hair; and they also have different colored eyes. Sapphire and Amethyst belongs to Alfred Jones and Matthew Williams, respectively. Why they have different last names even if they are twins will be another story for another time.

"You should stay closer to me, dude," started the one with a cowlick and sapphire eyes, "I think you'll get lost if you won't."

"That's stupid, Al," said his twin, "We may be teens but we can function on our own. Why will I get lost?"

Alfred laughs, "You know what I mean, Mattie."

Matthew is about to speak in protest when he accidentally bumped into another person. He turns to try and apologize. Amethyst eyes made eye contact with the stranger's Emerald ones.

"I am sorry, mister."

"That is all right," said he, "watch where you are going next time though."

The stranger left after seeing Matthew nod. Alfred watch this whole exchange with a raised eyebrow.

"Who was that, dude?"

"A stranger I bumped into."

Alfred laughs, "See? That's what I'm sayin'!"

They stopped to buy some burgers for Alfred- because he is the one who was hungry and then, they stopped by a pancake house, that Matthew frequent, since he thought that they are here for food might as well buy for himself.

Soon, they found themselves full and returned to their shared apartment. Alfred landed with a 'thump!' on the sofa while Matthew sits beside him without a single noise. These two's attitudes differ as was stated; Alfred is obnoxious, annoying - especially if you let him speak for long periods of time - self-proclaimed 'hero' and confident to everything he does whilst Matthew is quiet, shy, almost unnoticeable from his brother's overwhelming presence and always consults someone before making a decision of his own. Even if they have different personalities, they have each other's back.

Face buried on the couches' pillows, Alfred raised his head to speak, "Hey Mattie."

"Yes, Al?"

"If I have a secret I am not telling you-"

"Are you keeping something?"

"O-of course not, Mattie," laughing awkwardly, he continues, "I was just sayin' if. Okay, what will you do? Get angry?"

"It depends. If it's something stupid and I got hooked though…" a dark look is sent his way, "it will be another thing."

"I-I see! I will turn the television on for now 'kay? I wanna watch the new program today. They also have the new series of that superhero. He's so cool, you know!"

Alfred stands up and grab the remote from the table in front of the television while he is grinning. Matthew shook his head at his brother's enthusiasm. Although his brother is acting like nothing's wrong, he wondered if there is something going on. What is with the weird question that he was just asked? He tried to shrug this off and thought of what else to do. He goes to the kitchen to see if they have enough food for the next couple of days when the doorbell rang. Matthew and Alfred both look at the door from what they are doing before making eye contact. Matthew sighed, breaking the eye contact, and made his way to the door, opening it. The person on the other side of the door shocked him.

"Y-yes? How may I help you?" Is that his voice shaking?

"Please read this," said the male from the door beside two of his companions.

Matthew gets the paper and read the contents. His eyes widened in horror as he stared at the very first line.

"We are inviting you to the station as you are our first suspect in the murder that happened at the mall today."


Hello guys, I am back! Sorry for the loooong wait for my return I guess? I am suffering from writer's block. I tried to make a story for few months back but it was only this that I was able to type today. I hope you enjoy this though. I'll be back tomorrow to try and add some chapters to my ongoing stories. See you.
