Torn Between Twin Brothers

The drive wasn't that long. It took less than 30 minutes, and they arrived without delay. The Van stopped right at the front of the biggest shopping mall in the kingdom of Stonasia.

The Valet service attendant and people that were about to enter the mall were curious who the people inside the vehicle were. Unfortunately, all the windows were tinted, and no one could see who was inside. However, since there was a concert going on, they automatically assumed that the people inside must be celebrities.

This made the spectators curious, and they couldn't wait to see who would come out of the vehicle, and their hands were yearning to take a photo.

The driver, who was another bodyguard that worked for Prince Edmund, and Chupsy, who was seated in the front passenger seat, got out of the vehicle first and opened the minivan's side doors.

The first one to step out was Mary on one side, then Pisces on the other side, while Prince Edmund's assistant was the last one out after the children.

Spectators were standing by trying to comprehend who they were. Then they saw three Asian youths that look like they could be a part of female idol groups. But they didn't recognize them until someone said something...

"Ohhh, I recognize her! She's a child actress from the Philippines! I've seen her movies and commercials with her mother. That's Ava Go!" A young Filipina girl whispered to her companion from the crowd of people.

Chupsy heard what the Filipina girl said; she then quickly directed Mary and Pisces and the other bodyguards to cover all the children and speedily usher them into the mall.

Once they were inside the mall, the first thing Pearl did was locate the clothing stores for teens like them. Once she found one of her preferred brands, she led everyone in like a pro.

It wasn't far away from where they entered, so it only took them a short walk towards the store. A distinguished salesperson stood by the door and swiftly opened it for the children and their companions to enter.

"Welcome!" Greeted the salesperson with a beautiful smile plastered on her face. She backed away a little to give way for all of them to come in. However, only the four children, Chupsy and Prince Edmund's assistant entered. The rest stayed outside to guard the door.

The place seemed very exclusive since there were only a few customers around. However, the girls loved it; they could roam around freely to check out all the collections. Then, one by one, a saleswoman came out from the back and began following around the children to cater to all their needs.

The girls were having a ball trying outfits. Even Prince Edmund, who was not planning on getting anything, began looking around and chose a couple of clothes to try on. They were all having a wonderful time choosing outfits for each other.

Chupsy and Prince Edmund's assistant only stood there with grins on their faces as they watched the children enjoy their shopping day.

While the children were in the fitting room trying out outfits to outfits, there was a disturbance outside the store, and when the door opened, they heard a crowd of teenagers screaming loudly.

Five good-looking young men came walking in, all wearing sunglasses, masks, and hats. It was the idol group 'EXODUS.' They elected to shop before their concert to unwind.

Once they were inside, the door closed, and no one could enter the store. All the bodyguards were outside, preventing everyone from entering.

Pearl, who was still inside the fitting room, heard the commotion and peeked to see what was going on. Her eyes widened when she saw who came into the store. She quickly knocked on the other stalls where the two girls were trying on some clothes.

She banged on the door, "Akira!!!" She then moved to the next one, "Ava!!! Hurry! Guess who's here! Oh, my gosh!!!" She was exhilarated to the max, and her face was shining brightly from pleasure.

Ava and Akira both poked their heads out to the half-opened doors to find out if they heard her correctly.

"What did you just say? Who's here?" Asked Ava curiously?

Pearl was still beaming from ear to ear and couldn't standstill. "EXODUS!!! They're here to shop!"

Akira and Ava looked at each other before slamming the door shut so they could put on their original articles of clothing and check it out if it's true or not.

Akira swiftly looked for her phone and dialed her older brother Ashton's number. She needs to warn him not to divulge that they're siblings. She didn't want the girls to know as per their mother's instructions.

"Hello! Ashton, are you really here inside the store shopping?" She said whispering so Ava and Pearl would not hear her.

Ashton's brows knitted wondering how Akira knew that he was in the store shopping, "Yes, the group decided to relax a bit before the concert tonight. We are inside the stores right now. Are you here too? I'm sorry, I forgot to call you when we arrived yesterday, we were busy practicing. Anyway, what's up! Where are you! I need to give you a fat hug, I missed you so much!" He said as he walked around the store trying to find Akira.

"No-no! You can't let my friends know that we're siblings. One of my friends is a huge fan of your group and she wouldn't let me live in peace if she knew. So, if you see me... Just ignore me, alright!" Akira's voice sounded panicked.

"Oh, alright then! But, I want to at least give you a hug... Can't you just act like you're a fan and you wanted a hug from me?" Ashton loved his younger sister dearly and being the only girl and the youngest in the family, they all spoiled her to the max.

Akira had to think about it first. Then she happily agreed since she also missed her older brother.

"Sure-sure-sure! I'll find a way. I love you, older brother!" She said before hanging up the call. She quickly dressed and went outside to see EXODUS for herself....
