Everyone has secrets, everyone. But this one had really expected. Emily looked at the picture. Mike had a younger sister. She seemed to like him. She had long black curly hair. The same vanilla brown skin. Everything seemed quite the same. Only one thing, the eyes. Dark gray eyes.
Her name: Celina, but most call her Lin. She did not appear long ago. She could not stay home apparently without him. Another shock. Celina was Mike's twin sister. Unbelievable? Very stubborn. Mike was with the few minutes older.
She could stay a while. Emily could the characteristics of the two very well. separated Mike was really a gamer, Celina also, but there was something else. Celina is more ignorant than Mike, but she looks more to the people around her. She show it. To the contrary proposition, to Mike. But still ...
Emily feeling very frequently viewed by Celina. She got chills from it. She was also slightly jealous that she and Mike were so close. She always denies her feelings for him. She thought that Celina has noticed. As she kept a great distance between Emily and Mike. Emily had noticed that but Mike didn't see it.
Okay, Mike hasn't seen his sister for a long time, but that means nothing. Lightly she felt abandoned. She played with her flute in her fingers. From one side to the other. A light breeze swept over her. She thought of the nice things she had experienced with him. Tears stung her eyes.
This did not feel right. She does not feel good. She looked back and saw Celina laugh along with the other. She looked back to front. Recalling that she did with the other. She swallowed. Was she replaced?
She sighed. They would never do that to her. No, she should not think so. But what was it difficult.
"Emily?" The butterflies in her stomach moved violently as she recognized the voice. Consciously she held her face tight. "Hey, what are you doing out here alone?" He sat down beside her. She shrugged her shoulders.
"Just."
"That's no answer, why do not you come inside?"
"You have fun without me, I do not want to intrude."
"You'll never intrude, Em. Come and enjoy. "He offered his hand. She smiled . She looked back. Celina's bik pierced her.
"Uh, no thanks, I'll stay over here" she rejected off. Mike looked disappointed.
"Okay, then. But you can always come, okay? "She nodded. Mike went back inside.
Emily sighed and looked forward again. She sighed. After a while she got up. She turned toward the door. The curtain was pushed by the window. She knocked, she didn't got the door open. No response. She tried the front. Nothing. Her samuraizer , no she had let lie inside. Bad luck.
To make things worse, it started to rain also. It pouring literally. Soaked after an hour, the door opened.
"Emily?" She looked up. Pale.
'Finally,' she sighed. "About time." She went inside.
"What were you doing there?""Emily?" She looked up. Pale.
'Finally,' she sighed. "About time." She went inside.
"What were you doing there?"
"Doors locked, you did not open" she explained in one breath. Straight to her room to change her clothes. She was terribly cold. She came past the others.
"Emily?" Mike's voice sounded. She did not look at him. She just walked on, shivering. In the room she pulled the wet clothes off, and slid into her warm pajamas. She pulled her robe on top. Her wet hair she dried. A sneeze she could not suppress.
"Hatchoe!" She sneezed. "Wonderfull, also that" she complained. She took her clothes and threw it in the hamper. Angry, because nobody had heard her. She muttered and sulked.
"Emily." She turned around.
"What do you want 'she snapped. Celina looked shocked.
"Uh, nothing, just wanted to know if you are okay."
"Great, happy?" Emily began to be more and more angry.
"Uh, okay, I just wanted to know. And I wanted to ask something "she quickly added. Licking her lips.
"Tell me" Emily sighed against sentence.
"Well uh, you're rather very fond of my brother right?" Emily looked back. She hadn't expected that.
"Why do you want to know?"
"Simply, I see how you move around him and he to you." Emily looked questioningly.
"I mean, you can hardly stay away from him, that you did kept distance just today was weird. And he can't stop talking about you. It is maddening. "
"What do you mean, just today?"
"Yes, just today, you seem to be afraid '
"That's just because you give me that." Oops, that blurted out. Emily did not let see the mistake.
"I, I didn't know, sorry, I .." With tears in her eyes, the girl left the room. She could still hear Mike calling her name , before the door hit shut. Groaning, Emily realized the mistake. Sighing, she also ran out the door. Right back in the bad weather.
She could see Celina run. In her bathrobe Emily ran after her. Calling her name. She saw Celina looking back and then she fell down. She had tripped. She was in a deep pool of water. She heard footsteps and she was helped up. Celina had returned. Emily shuddered just like her.
'S…S..rry' Emily shivered violently. "I think I well .."
'Jealous' guessed Celina. Emily nodded.
"I had the feeling that you wanted to replace me."
"I'm your replacement, you're crazy. Do you know what Mike told all. Replacing you is impossible. "
"I am a replacement so ..."
"Even then, Mike would not like it. Day after day, the only thing I get to hear is you. Never once how it runs here with the Nighlocks. "
"Really?"
"Really, and that's not all of it."
"I'm really sorry then, I .. '
"Never mind, I can come over weird or different sometimes. I never meant to scare you.
I just wanted some time with my brother. "Emily smiled.
"I understand." There was a pause.
"Um, let's go back before .."
"Celina, Emily!" There was shouted. Mike came running, with two coats and an umbrella.
"Mike?" Emily turned away.
"Why on earth, your way?" Breathless.
"Well, Emily and I had decided to take a run ."
"A run in this weather, insane."
"Who would I have you?" She grabbed a coat from his hands. "Let's go back." Mike nodded.
Emily still had not looked at Mike. Celina took another coat and shoved it in her arms.
"Take that robe off and give it to Mike." Emily did uncomfortable with what was said.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes, just a little .." She put a hand on her face. Slightly dizzy.
"Come here." Mike wrapped an arm around her shoulder. He opened the umbrella open. Celina had a broad grin on her face. Emily shot her with her eyes.
'One word' she hissed.
"And what, I hear all the bells" she teased. Mike had no idea where the two were talking about. The three made their way back. Once back inside the jackets were pulled out. Emily and Celina went to change in something different (again).
"You must tell him," said Celina.
'What?'
'Your feelings for him"
"Fool!"
"So you confess."
"Damn" Celina chuckled.
"I will say nothing provisional '
"If you dare"
"What then .."
'I notice that you're his sister. "
"You're not the first." Emily puffed. They arrived in the common room. They attracted immediatly the attention of the others.
"You okay?" The two nodded.
"I do not know, Emily sees pale and Celina has a red nose."
"Mike" both said together. They laughed.
"We're OK"
'I..'
'Brother' warned Celina. He kept his mouth, sulking.
"Okay, no hot chocolate for you." The two frowned.
"Mike!" They cried. He took two mugs out hot chocolate. The two immediately felt much warmer. Until they get drunk. Too hot. They choked him.
'Easy' The two drunk again.
'So, now that's done, Emily what's wrong, and dare not lie. "Emily looked at her now empty cup chocolate. She swallowed.
"Mike, Emily ..."
"No, Celina 'Celina frowned. "I know something's wrong, I want to know. If it has to do with me, say it just. "Emily shrugged.
"I was just what .."
"Yes ..."
"Just a little."
"What Emily?" Another shrug
"Emily was not feeling too thrilling" interrupted Celina. What curse gaze of Mike gave a "I who suddenly appeared, was suddenly too much. She needed some time. "
'Oh' sounded in the background.
"So we started running," Mike looked with two slanting eyes. Knowing full well that this last thing is a lie.
"Celina .."
"No, Mike. Emily and I just have to get used to each other, nothing more. Everything has a time, okay? "With her hands on her hips, she looked sternly at her brother. He nodded. "Well, who is hungry? I'm, kebab or chinese. "
'Kebab' sounded together outside Mike. "I'm not going to eat pizza" explained Celina. "I've already eaten too often." The other two girls chuckled.
"Not funny" grumbled Mike. Celina hooked in the arm of Emily and Mia.
"Let's go."
