Babara: "Mom, I tried to bite Kevin's neck so that I suck his blood the other night you left us together. But, he was so different from all other men that came my way. I couldn't!"
Monica: "What do you mean?"
Babara: "I was very thirst. At first I sniffed him closely from otside the suite and I though maybe it could need when am private to concentrate. I tricked him inside upto my room. When I aggressively got close to his neck blood vessels, all over a sudden I felt like his blood was going to damage me!"
Monica: "Do not dare bite Kevin, okay! am so serious about this, don't even think about it."
Babara: "The truth is that I can't! Inside the elevator as we were coming up, I did sniffed him too deep again to see if I can get appetite for his blood but mom, he is totally different! It's like he's got some magic within."
Monica: "Don't tell me you're serious about it?"
Babara: "I'm very serious mom... you can as well try to sniff deep into his vessels when you happen to get a chance and find out for yourself! Even at the peak of thirst I bet, your desire will instantly die."
Monica: "Okay, tell me... where is that connected to you having feelings for him?"
Babara: "Immediately I saw him the second time down stairs, I felt something in me and when I hugged him, the rate at which my heart beats increased... I even became somehow nervous."
Monica: "Are you still feeling the same way right now because you're looking at him?!"
Babara: "Yes. I've been imagining a lot of things, building different castles in the air about me and him.... beside, he is kind hearted and treats me with care, exactly the same way you treat me mom!"
Monica: "According to how I see him, that dog face, smooth spotless bright skin, enough height, his dressing code and all the luxuries he lives in; I think he already has girlfriend. I would advise you to take him as your best friend."
Babara: "You're not sure about that mom! and if I find out that there's any lady anywhere getting in my way with him, she will leave me with no other choice except to kill her... Kevin must be mine and mine alone!" That's how I feel."
Babara spoke to her mother aggressively with bitterness
This got Monica Yen anxious. Her good moods died instantly and she began to think about the future of her twin daughters as the mother. Her legs trembled.
It got more complicated to digest the facts from Babara's mouth that, she looked around near by and found herself a seat. Depression marked on her pretty motherly face.
Babara's temper was uncontrollable since the day she was raped on the ship and the only person who could manage to handle her was none other than her own mother Monica Yen, who was in depression right now.
However, at this moment Monica Yen knew the exact truth that it was all her fault not to tell Babara Yen that she had a twin sister when she was growing up and, the first time to meet Kevin still she Knew exactly the girl he was looking for and again failed to open up to Babara.
Her acts began haunting giving her a primary headache.
Babara got a seat just close for her to say, "and I beg you to please don't stand in my way on this issue. Allow me to at least build my own relationship with him because Kevin loves me... you've seen him express it genuinely to me!"
Monica Yen shrunk more down on a seat she was sitting on. She had to figure out on what to do next with immediate effects before the worst happened.
During the meal at the dining table, uneasiness was all over Monica's face followed by her body gesture. She couldn't eat such a delicious meal because her appetite was out of the window at that particular juncture.
Babara was watching her mother closely.
"Is the meal fine?" Secretary Jamila asked with her eyes on Monica Yen.
"Yeah! yes it is!" Monica replied in panic when her daughter tapped her from the back.
Secretary Jamila beamed a shy look at Kevin Moore. Kevin also flashed a simple smile back at her as they continued with their meal.
'Excuse me!" Monica Yen couldn't contain whatever was on her mind that she asked secretary Jamila, "can I talk to you privately for a minute?" "I'm so sorry Kevin," she took concern to apologise for the poor table manners.
"Oh, no no no! No problem It's all well," because Kevin was a free will in the soul, he wished the same to others, thus had no problem with his guests doing whatever they like in his home.
Monica Yen took Jamila outside near the swimming pool where they both stood. Since it was late in the night, lights around the house shined so bright around the whole area, chasing away the dark.
Monica Yen took a deep breath to calm her nervous self down. Jamila worriedly looked at her boss's condition.
"What's wrong Ms Monica?!" Jamila asked.
After coming herself down to concentrate, "there is fire on the mountain Jamila, a very big problem I can't solve by my own!" said Monica Yen, "I need your knowledge please!"
"Am listening Ms Monica," Jamila waited attentively.
Monica: "Babara Yen has a twin sister with whom they look so identical.... Yes, and her twin sister is Pinky, the one that Kevin came looking for that night at the suite."
Jamila: "Am so sorry Ms Monica but, could you please make me understand... you're confusing me!"
Monica: "Look, I never wanted this to be known by anyone. I gave birth to twins twenty years ago. One was perfectly a normal human and anther one is Babara Yen, the child I've raised."
Jamila: "Okay!"
Monica: "My plan was to kill the one who was sick like me and keep the normal one immediately after birth because, I never want her to face what I faced when I was growing up. But as a mother I fail to do so."
Jamila: "Am sorry to ask Ms Monica but, how comes one was normal, and where is she now?! Please make me understand!"
Monica: "Their father... He was a human. I hid my condition of illness away from him, hopping that I was protecting my marriage but, little did I know he was going to find out and abandon me. It was my worst nightmare. He ran away with the other twin."
Jamila: Why didn't you find them yet you knew their way abouts?!"
Monica: "I didn't have any trace of them for twenty years until last month when I saw my second twin on television. She's actually in this very city and she is a famous fashion model."
Jamila: "Have you met her yet?"
Monica: "Yes but, not face to face.... I was watching her from a distance."
Jamila: "But the worst mistake you didn't was to keep it a secret from Madam Babara!"
"Has she found out now?"
Monica: "Babara told me earlier today that she is in love with Kevin and ready to kill whoever gets in her way. Thats where am stuck right now. Am truly sorry Jamila but I really need your help."
Jamila: "Do you know that I also have feelings for Kevin?"
Monica: "That's crazy! Kevin loves Pinky.... Definitely, soon or later the two are going to bump into eachother! You're the only one I can trust."
Jamila: "This was obvious from day one that they will definitely meet because they're twins!"
Monica: "I'm not ready to loose any of my daughters!"
There happened to be a moment of silence between Jamila and her boss Monica Yen. Back inside, Babara Yen was busy getting to understand Kevin beyond how she knew him.
Secretary Jamila looked at her boss and felt pity for her. Slowly she moved closer and cuddled her in an emotional hug. A problem shared is a problem half solved. Monica Yen felt somehow relieved after sharing her worries with Jamila.
There after, they turned to walk back into the house. From the entrance, right through the glass wall, Monica Yen saw her daughter busy kissing with Kevin Moore.
Jamila also saw it. At this moment she had information which was really vital about this young lady she has always loved so much and cared for, Babara Yen. Jamila watched how happy Babara was.
"I've never seen madam Babara happy like this before," said secretary Jamila to Monica Yen.
"I don't think I have the guts to tell her the truth right now," Monica told her secretary.
"Why don't you tell Kevin Instead? I think it will be better so he can avoid her," advised Jamila.
"Do you think it will work?" Monica asked in doubt.
Am not sure... let's just give it a try," responded Jamila.
"Alright, but how are we going to speak to him in private?" It was another move to think of Monica Yen asked.
Smiling the entered into the house upto the dining table where Kevin Moore and Babara Yen were enjoying each other company.
"Excuse us Babara," Monica Yen asked smiling in pretence, "can you allow us to speak to your boyfriend Kevin privately?"
"Of course is an adult, I can't decide for him!" Babara replied to her mother.
"It's alright, you're my lover... I felt good to hear someone going through you to get me," Kevin told Babara. He stood up, "can you please come with your mobile phone?" asked secretary Jamila and Kevin said, "okay!" blushing.
Not only Kevin Moore, Monica Yen and her secretary Jamila were blushing too from embarrassment when Babara Yen was seriously looking at them taking whom she claims to be her boyfriend out of her sight.
She looked at her mother wondering what exactly she was plotting to call Jamila out first and now they both came for Kevin. She became suspicious; "Wait!" Babara stood up and commanded, "anything concerning my sweetheart I must get involved. She aggressively spoke out loud.
"I think you need to control your temper!" advised, Monica.
"You won't like to express the results of your hot temper infront of this handsome young dude you're falling in love with because you know how much it can cost you!" On a serious note, Monica told her daughter Babara.
Babara Yen maturely thought it through and with guilt she kept quiet and stood back.
"It's alright," said Kevin to her, "It was Jamila's turn first now it's mine. I believe three of us are coming for you in the next round," Kevin Moore playfully told Babara and gave her a peck on the cheek. He then walked smiling to join Monica and Jamila in respect to their request.
However, he had no idea about their mission to take him outside of the house in a private talk he just followed up. They all approached the swimming pool side and worriedly Jamila and Monica were looking, facing the pool.
Kevin joined in the middle of both of them, looking beyond at the beautiful view of Capricon city in the glowing night.
"What a beautiful view this is!" he spoke as the were silent, trying to get guts to start addressing their matter to him.
Monica made a facial expression to inform Jamila to start say something.
"Uh, Kevin!" Jamila mentioned and Kevin Moore looked at her with innocence.
"There's something really important you need to know," Jamila added.
"I'm excited to hear the surprised," he responded looking happy on the face.
"It's not good news but it saves all of us from the worst," Jamila said to him.
"Since it saves us, obviously it's good news," Kevin Moore's mentality was always worry free because he was a merman, a creature that had lived a life of free will under the sea for twenty-six years.
"Kevin!" Monica called for his attention. He turned to look at her.
"Can you call your Pinky on your mobile phone right now and ask her where she is!" Monica Yen asked.
Kevin said, "I ask her where she is yet she's obviously right there inside the house on the dining table!" He smiled.
"Yes," secretary Jamila said seriously looking straight in his face.
Kevin saw the saw the seriousness on their faces and said to both of them, "If you're involving me in a game then it might be full of fun.
With a joyful face, he lifted his hand in which the mobile phone was and dialed 'beautiful mommy' a name which displayed on the phone screen. As the phone rang on his ears, Monica asked him to put it into loud so that they can as well hear, which Kevin did obediently.
"Hey Kevin!" a fresh and happy voice came out of the phone speaker. He smile and turned around to look at whom he expected to be talking to through the glass walls of his home far at the dining.
To Kevin's surprise, in a house full of bright lights, the young lady was busy sipping on a glass, enjoying her own company.
"Hello!" the voice in speakers continously called, "honey!" responded kevin but looking far through in the house at who he knew should be the one talking on the phone but wasn't.
"Is everything okay!" the voice from the phone asked, " you are not being clear."
"Where you right now?" Kevin asked inquisitively.
"At home right here with my dad," the voice answered, "do you want to say hi to him?"
"Wait am going to call you back!" Immediately he turned the phone off, he slowly stepped foward towards the house wondered on his face the magic in what he thought was just a game, Monica and Jamila called him outside to play.
"How comes Suxes didn't not teach me this kind of magic!" Kevin said in a whisper to himself, " how did you manage to do this amazing magic? He turned excitedly and asked Jamila and Monica.
"I've loved the magic trick," he said, "talking to someone through the phone and yet in actual sense the person is not on their phone! and they even answer exactly in line to questions!"
"Before you get excited, it's not magic as you are thinking," Jamila said to him, the young lady you're looking at right there is not Pinky your girlfriend. Her name is Babara Yen.
"Hahaha," Kevin Moore had never laughed ever since he came into human societies.... he always smiled when he's happy or excited but this time round, he laughed out loud.
As he was still laughing, he noticed their faces looked very serious and he said to them, "the way both of you look so serious in a joke makes you greatest actors and for that matter am going to reward you..... hahaha!
"Stop Kevin!" Secretary Jamila yelled at him as a serious expression while he was still laughing it off. Kevin stopped laughing abruptly.
Kevin Moore: "Don't tell me you're serious!"
Monica Yen: "Her name is Babara Yen and I'm her mother."
Kevin Moore: "And the one I've called on a loud speaker?"
Monica Yen: "She is called Pinky, the twin sister to Babara."
Kevin Moore: "What do you mean by 'twins'?"
Monica Yen: "When a woman has two children in her womb she's carrying twins and when they're born they call them twins I believe don't want us to joke in this matter Kevin I know you've ever heard or seen twins before."
Kevin Moore: "Those innocent eyes, long dark shiny hair, height, voice, seductive lips.... everything about her is just the same I know! you can't tell me these are two different ladies and expect me to believe you!"
Monica Yen: "It is because they are identical. And only me can identify them because I'm their mother."
Kevin Moore: "Then call Pinky to come here!"
Monica Yen: "I don't have her contact."
