Van POV
I breathed a sigh of relief as we exited the dinning room. Cleopatra took me on a tour of their house.
"Seriously, I feel like their stares are burning me." I said and held it to my chest. We went out their back door. Maybe she'll take me to their backyard. "Why didn't you say we had a lot together?" I asked. She sat down in a chair under a tree. I also sat next to her and looked at her.
"It doesn't matter who's who is there." She replied. I rolled my eyes.
"That's important, it's as if I'm well prepared. Damn, I was nervous before and embarrassed ---"
"Are you ashamed of your body?" She asked so I looked at her. "So, you love me." I lost my bad look at her. Suddenly my heart beat faster at what she said. Geez. Why am I embarrassed now?
"You were corny earlier." She said and looked at me.
"Seriously, hey you don't know the feeling of admitting to the family of the woman I like." I said so she looked at me with a strange smile on her face. Here we are again with that smile.
"Admit it to me again now quickly." She said. I raised an eyebrow at her.
"What? No, You're just a stupid." I said and glared at her
"Don't talk to me." She said coldly so I put my hand on my head. Seriously, she knows what I can’t do.
"Are you mad at that?" I asked. She did not answer.  "So will the patriotic vow also be angry if my  love is you?" She turned to me. Suddenly the wrinkle on her forehead disappeared. "I won't repeat what I said before because I know you heard that." I said so she stared at me. "And I also know that you were trembling while I was saying that. Maybe you'll confess now when I confess to you." I said and smiled.
"You don't have to worry." I heard her whisper.
"Do you know what is more beautiful than stars in the sky?" I ask. She turned to me.
"What?" She asked coldly.
"Your smile." My answer. I looked into her eyes. Slowly her lips smiled so I smiled too. I pulled her closer to me and hugged her. She was obviously surprised by what I did but she did not back down.
"Are you sure I'm the one you love?" She asked. I laughed.
"Of course." I said.
"How about Aphrodite?" She asked.
"What about Aphrodite?" I asked. She looked at me as I hugged her.
"Don't you want her? You're still chasing her." She said. I laughed.
"Seriously, I was miserable when I chased her." I said and took a deep breath. "Since I saw her and Von  at the party, that's when I started to feel bad for her." I said. "I just realized, why did I try to squeeze myself into a woman who doesn't want me?" I asked.
"Until you confessed to me then in the back of our house. I don't know but all of a sudden my heart was pounding. I feel like my hearts are pounding."" I said and laughed.
"I was so jealous of Aphrodite then." She said so I looked at her. "Especially when I pretended to be Aphrodite." She added and took a deep breath. I felt her hug me.
"That day I wished I was just Aphrodite, I was asking myself why Aphrodite doesn't want you. In fact, everything is already over." She said.
"That day I asked a few times if I was the one you wanted." I smiled.
"Now you're the one I love." I whispered.
"I don't want to marry Von." Suddenly she said.
"I know." I whispered and hugged her tightly. "When Von finds what he's looking for and presents it to papa, I'm sure he'll talk to your papa so I can marry you." I said. She laughed.
"I hope so." She whispered.
"Cleopatra?" I called. She looked up at me. I immediately kissed her on the lips. I closed my eyes and gently kissed her lips. She responds to me, at first just soft kisses until our kisses became passionate. We almost lost our breath when we broke away from each other. She smiled at me as she hugged me.
"I love you." I whispered and kissed her forehead.
"I love you too." It was past three in the morning when I got home. After Cleopatra and I flirted in the back of their house, we went back inside their house and I talked to her family. I'm a part of her family anymore, I've been able to make fun of them before.
I got out of my car and looked in front of our house. The lights in the living room are still on, maybe Leana and Leona are still awake.
I closed the door of my car and was about to walk when I felt something strange around me. I stopped when I heard someone close the car door so I looked behind me and saw Von limping.
"Von?" I call.  he stopped walking and looked at me. His eyes widened, he smiled at me, his tears were not beyond my sight.
"M-my twin." He said tremblingly and approached me with a faint sigh, maybe he drank. He almost fell in front of me so I immediately caught him and smelled the wine.
"Why are you drunk?" I asked as he partied.
"M-my twin." Suddenly he cried causing me to stop. We were still sitting on the floor because of his weight.
"Von." I called. He was just crying and sobbing in front of me as he hugged me, he looked like a child but I felt weird. I feel sorry for him.
"M-my twin."
"What happened?" I asked.
"I-I've seen her." he says crying. What I don’t understand is why is he crying when he has already found what he is looking for?
"Von?" I called but he did not answer. I looked at him, he lost consciousness.  What is happening to my twin?
