Chapter 403 - Juju & Bobo (1/2)
*SLAM*
The door was slammed with the full force and locked before Bao came to threw a shopping bag at his sister. Juan caught the shopping bag with a frown.
”What's this? And why do you look like someone ruffled your feathers or something?” She was rummaging through the shopping bag as she went on, ”Not that you don't always look this annoyed but... Right now, you look like you're ready to...”
”Should I throw you out of the room as well, dear sister?” He didn't even allow his sister to complete her sentence as she was forced to zip her lips and stay quiet.
She got a beautiful dress out of the shopping bag and grinned widely. ”What's the occasion? Why am I getting a new dress?”
Bao pointed towards the connecting door that was between his and her room saying, ”Juju, out!”
”Bro?” Juan was looking at him with a pout now. Was he serious? He never kicked her out of his room before? They were twins who were always stuck together like glue! Although he was a genius and she was a drama queen, this duo had the best connection and the most awesome bonding as well. How could he ask her to leave now?
”Juju!” his voice raised a bit making her face fall.
With a heavy heart and heavy steps, she dragged herself towards the door. But like the drama queen she was, her pace was awfully slow. As if someone had pressed the slow-motion button or something and with each step, she would look back and ask, ”You really want me to leave?” But since he didn't even bother looking up from the book he was engrossed in, she could only sigh out and leave.
As soon as she left, he closed the book and threw the other shopping bag that was meant for him on the floor. He was tugging at his hair now in exasperation. He was indeed annoyed after what he heard from the maid earlier.
”CRASH*
Hearing something break he ran towards the door which was connected to his sister's room and pushed it open. The first thing he saw was the glass vase that was now lying in his feet, broken. ”Juju!” he called out in worry.
”Here!”
Can you guess where her voice came from?
From behind the bed!
Bao came to see her sitting on the floor with her teddy bear in her arms while sulking. He crouched down beside her, ”Are you hurt? What happened? How did that vase break?”
”Maybe the wind broke it,” said Juan in a neutral voice pretending like she didn't know anything. For one second, Bao could have believed her if only the windows in her room weren't closed. Not only that he knew his sister very well.
”You could have called for me without creating this mess,” he said and sat down beside her. He knew about her tricks and yet he fell for it. But the fact was simple, he loved his sister so much that even if it was just a trick he was willing to fall for it again and again because there was no way he could see her upset or hurt.
”And Bobo could have talked to me instead of getting angry at me,” she was complaining, her big eyes blinking at him accusingly.
Bao rubbed her head. ”I'm not angry with you.”
