THE INVITATION COMES

[XIAN]

Vince and I received a red envelope. I don't know where it came from as long as I woke up we just saw it outside the door. Those are two, he took his and I didn't open it first. “Kuya? Have you read the letter? ” wondered its question.

"What letter Vince?" my answer. He suddenly pulled out the envelope and the paper. “Invitation from Synthecia Family. From Kuya Xian, ”he said,“ H-Ha? Just wait, I'll open mine. ” I took mine and saw that it was an invitation.

I saw and read that from Xian. I know this because he often uses this color and font in all our gatherings. “What brother are we going to? I don't have a walk today, ”he promised. “Yes Vince! Let's get ready. ” I answered here. Vince and I just got ready and prepared ourselves. I may feel weird but maybe it's true and there's nothing wrong with my sister and I going.

We went to the said address and prepared for the danger that was coming to us.

DINNER GATHERING WITH THE TWO GUESTS

[XIAN]

It was past six in the evening and the door suddenly opened. Thea and I walked out again and I don’t know if I’ll be annoyed or happy, because Shawn and Vince are here now. “Hey, pre! Are you here? ” wondered its question. I approached and kicked him but he escaped.

“Hey? Why are you suddenly punching? I'm Shawn! ” its angry utterance.

“S-Sorry dude! I'm just making sure you're real. How did you get here? ” I asked him. Meanwhile his brother Vince is also wondering.

“We received an invitation. You wrote it before, so we hurried it and this is how we can reach it. ” explaining it.

“Yes bro! What's more, it's amazing that this isn't your house? ” Vince added.

“Yes! It's different, it's not our house. How did you get in here? ” I changed the subject because I actually asked them a lot of questions because I don't know where they got the letter from me.

We first sat down at the table near us and all of a sudden the maids came out carrying food.

What's happening?

What is there?

Why are they here? Since when?

Are the things I see true?

A series of questions came to my mind and even our conversation with Shawn and Vince stopped. I didn't know what to ask and say next. We just looked at the three women who were serving for us. Suddenly the aura of the surroundings changed as everything became bright and orderly. “Hey miss? Who is all that for? And who prepared? ” Vince asked the brunette and short -haired maid.

“That's for all of you sir. Ma'am Helen will also come down here later. ” explaining it. I just frowned because what was really going on was really chaotic. But Thea is energetic and eats right away. I suddenly looked at the stairs because a woman came down. Long hair and it's a bit curly. Her attire was dark and formal. It smiled as it approached us.

"Good evening, brother!" she said happily to me. I didn't realize that he was in the foreground. It's just amazing because it seems like nothing happened because of his looks now.

She sat down in the middle and looked at us at the same time.

“We are complete! So, let's eat. I really prepared all that for you and especially with the arrival of Kuya Shawn and Vince, ”he said with a smile. He is already putting food. I could not move because his actions and speech were strange and innovative.

“Oh brother, please eat. It will be fun if you just look, ”he said.

“Oh Ah! Yes, sorry. Let's go. "I replied. Even though I'm not really myself, I chose not to reveal my nervousness and most of all I have to be careful.

I didn't know what my brother's actions would be and now my situation is difficult because I just made the wrong move with Shawn and Vince. We ate quietly, no one wanted to speak because of the tension between us. “Don’t mind me, if I ask you Elle ha? Why is your house weird and you don't really live here, do you? ” Shawn asked, which surprised me. He had the strength to ask my brother. In fact, he didn't even know what was going on.

“It’s my house, brother. So, sorry if it's surprising and a bit creepy. Just enjoy here and I hope you enjoyed what I cooked, ”he said happily.

Shawn just nodded and I also saw Vince look at Elle. I know he still loves my brother. Because he doesn't think that's surprising anymore. I still don’t finish my food. I couldn't help but watch and observe because his actions were really amazing. The food is really delicious because I have all our favorites in front of me. Adobo, Afritada, Fried chicken, shanghai and many more. You would think that there was a fiesta. Thea and I were on the left while Shawn and Vince were on the right. Only Elle is in the middle. I suddenly thought of number 6 but we are only 5 now.

Who is the guest? Is it a shadow or a ghost? I'm just really close to what I'm thinking.“Just enjoy your meal kuya, Kuya Shawn, Vince and also Baby Thea. We will have desserts after this! ” it says happily.

Thea was very happy and almost jumped up and down. “Yehey! Sister, are you back yet? I want chocolate and strawberries. ” Its suggestion. “Of course, baby! Okay! I will take care of it, I will order our maids, ”he said with a smile. He finished his meal first and stood up as well. I just got bored because I had to eat because I had to have energy and for my brain to work properly.

“Dude? Are you all right? ” Shawn asked. I knew he was wondering and worried. I just smiled at him and continued eating. Elle also arrived with four gallons of ice cream and various flavors. Thea was overjoyed when she laid it on the table.

“I fed the maids so I took all that myself. Enjoy eating, I will have a surprise for you later, ”he promised.

I was almost taken aback by the last thing he said. And his smile changed as well. "K-brother, are you okay?" Thea said and handed me the water. I took it and drank it. "Sorry! I just really drowned." I change the subject, and at the same time I try to nod and smile at them.

I went back to what I was eating and tried to put aside those who bothered me first. I need to concentrate first.

I don't want to indulge in what I'm thinking. I need to know what step he can take.

What is your plan? Why is it like this??
