*ACF"s point of view*I saw HIM approaching from afar. It wasn"t from the kitchen like Jessica but some other place that I didn"t even dare to go to although I held the most authority.
They all were handsome, but he with the long dark chocolate brown hair got me off my senses. If I hadn"t known what my hair was like at the time, I could"ve sworn HE was my reflection.
My hair was short and deep blue as in an endless ocean"s depth. We had the same skin tone and features, though I was shorter - around 173cm.
My feelings went out of control. I couldn"t move my legs anymore. If I, at that moment, wasn"t resting on a coach"s side, I would have fallen apart. My legs got really weak. Pain spread through my bones. I felt hefty, and a really strange emotion got my heart spinning.
A moment later and without noticing it, HE was right in front of me.
"Who is he," I asked. Then Jong Hyun replied when I knew he was apprehensive "Loyal."
I stared at him for a really long time, and murmured to myself "I don"t remember having a twin."
He didn"t seem to care, or maybe he didn"t realize the intensity of the situation. It was obvious that everyone was glazing at us. I felt the signals directed from their eyes to us, and although Jessica commented about the atmosphere, he did nothing.
The room went dead as ever. We all gawked at each other, and this abiding awkwardness would have never ended. Then, Jesse spoke.
"Jongi, so won"t you introduce us to your lolita friend? I"m Jesse just in case Jongi has never spoken "bout this," then pointed at himself.
He called me a lolita, and that wasn"t nice of him.
I couldn"t stand but replay.
"Well yeah, Jong Jong Who"s this playboy, ha?"
At that moment, I felt really bad for Jong Hyun. I didn"t really mean calling him that, but it just came out of my mouth. I was really frustrated by Jesse"s att.i.tude. He looked like a playboy to me and had always maintained this image, even today.
Jong Hyun didn"t seem to realize that I just called him Jong Jong. All he did was asking us to introduce ourselves. They all knew each other except for myself. I only knew Jong Hyun. Which meant I had to start the introduction.
"I guess, I should speak up," I started, "I"m the newest addition to this household, ACF. It"s, I guess, nice to meet you all. And I"m supposedly G1L*."
Jesse looked annoyed and really uncomfortable, Edward was listening carefully or so I thought. Then, there was Loyal who seemed quite concerned about something. Oppositely, Arthur didn"t seem to care, since he was too busy working with his notebook. Jong Hyun had a serious experience drawn on his face, and Jessica was exited
"ACF ha? I"m Jessica; Jessi for short. So~~, they seem a little littly little kinda shy right guys?"
The other four idiots unsurprisingly replied to her with a yes.
"So, you see. This guy here is Edward, Edward Gold. The most handsome man of our century, the son of the n.o.blest Seen* family, and a quite educated man," she winked while saying it. I, at some point, knew that her words were ironic.
"And the other you here (I don"t know if you"re okay with me saying this) is Loyal Gold the royal. A full option and an A cla.s.s gentleman. A flower boy isn"t he? Hmmm, the one standing last is Arthur, an electrics maniac, and a really handsome mate" she cut her speech. Then, she got close to my ear and said: "You know, he"s not my type though."
It didn"t end at that, because she still had to say more.
She started again "You see that one beside Arthur. He"s Jesse, ( murmured in my ears again "You were right about the playboy thing you said earlier") the mighty of all. Quite attractive you know."
Jessica stopped at that, and I saw how she seemed to want a dramatic reaction to her dramatic speech.
And "Well everyone, hope we can get along," was all that I said. She didn"t object on my reaction nor commented about it. Though, I felt uncomfortable later on for not giving her a dramatized reaction.
Jong Hyun, who was nervous all that time, started to relax a bit. His expression softened and he went back to his old self.
"Oh, by the way, Ed, so isn"t your brother coming soon?"
"In 2 weeks. Doesn"t make a difference if he didn"t anyway."
"I see now," Jong Hyun laughed out loud, "you guys fought, hm."
"NO, we did not."
Loyal"s eyes smiled " Yes, they did. Now, you should stop acting like a kid, Ed. The outlook isn"t good."
Even with all this, they still seemed confused. All 5 idiots eyes were focused on me.
"I might be crazy for asking this, but are you a... guy or a girl," admitted Jesse.
