Shopping centers that initially seemed busy with their respective activities stopped when they saw a family joining hands with parents who flanked their two children.
What kept them from taking their eyes off was two gender-different twins.
They are separated when their two children pull their parents in different directions. The boy pulls his mother to the left while the girl pulls the father to the right.
"A moment, Jo," said Ariel a little difficulty offsetting her son's slightly running steps by pulling his hand towards a music store.
"Why not just be together?" ariel asked when she saw Jordan looking at the hundreds of tapes lined up on a shelf in the store.
"Joie always long to choose the items she wants to buy," Jordan replied reasoned.
"And he always protests when I've chosen what I want" he added.
"What do you want to buy?" ariel asked, frowning.
"No idea" Jordan replied as he rubbed his nape.
"But want to look around in this store," he added.
"If there's a good one, I can buy one, right, Mom?" please Jordan.
"Well, now choose as you please" replied Ariel.
"Thank you, Mom," Jordan said.
Jordan began to track musical tapes from those closest to him. Staring at all the tapes in front of him with sparkling eyes.
Until a man approached Ariel who was choosing a cassette tape that was not far from her son.
"Hi,," she said.
Ariel turned her head and found a man smiling kindly at her.
"Yes? Can I help you?" welcome Ariel to smile kindly.
"Ehm, no, no, just, did you come alone?" ask her with a nervous voice.
"No" answered Ariel. "I'm with_,,,"
"Mom," cried Jordan immediately ran up to his mother and stood in front of Ariel while giving a look of dislike to the man in front of his mother.
"What's wrong?" ask Ariel. " Have you found what you want to buy?" coined.
"No, we go with Daddy" Jordan replied.
"All right" replied Ariel.
"Ah, sorry, I'm with my family, do you need anything?" ariel asked turned to the man who asked earlier.
The man was stunned for a while after finding out the woman in front of him had a family.
"Ah no, I just want to chat for a while because you look similar to someone I admire" the man replied.
"Then, please continue your activities, sorry to interrupt" he added.
"Excuse me" said the man, bowing his body.
"Come, Mom!" take Jordan.
Jordan clings to his mother's hand again, walking to the place where they are separated. At the same time, Joel and Joie are also heading to the same place and they regroup.
Unexpectedly, Joie and Jordan walked together while whispering to each other towards the arcade area.
"So there's Aunt Daddy's flirtatious ass," joie confronts in a quiet voice.
"So there was my uncle deketin Mommy, too" Jordan replied.
"So, we play alone, so Daddy can continue with Mommy," said Joie.
"Umm," greeted Jordan nodding in agreement.
Those who suddenly get along cause wrinkles on Ariel. He looked at his two children with questioning eyes.
"They've been acting strange lately" Ariel said.
"If you see Jo like that, has anyone approached you?" ask Joel.
Ariel turned with a frown, looking at her husband who was holding her hand.
"Ah, there was a man asking something, and Jo suddenly interjected, is that what you mean?" ask Ariel.
"Right," said Joel. "Jo doesn't like it when someone else comes near you" he added.
"That's it," replied Ariel.
"It looks like their jealous side is both from you" Ariel said.
"I was relieved by that" said Joel. "That way, they can be counted on to take care of you, right?" coined.
"Basic," answered Ariel, landing a slow blow on her husband.
"Hey, they're soon having a birthday" Joel said. "What do you think we can give them as a gift?" ask Joel.
"I originally intended to invite Jessi as well as celebrate their wedding anniversary. But Jessi is out of town, and it's impossible to get back on that date" Ariel said.
"But we can have their birthday by inviting our friends" Joel replied.
"Maybe Liam can come, aren't they close enough to Liam?" coined.
"Make Liam's arrival a surprise for them, because if we pretend to forget their birthday, it will only make them think of strange things" Ariel said.
"I'll arrange it" said Joel.
They decided to wait in the long chairs that were available not far from the arcade area. Waiting for their children to play.
While the two brothers were actually seeing a small child who was cool playing with his brother. Making them both forget their original purpose of being in the arcade area until their time has run out and come back to their parents without playing anything.
The two of them asked to go home and were more silent during the return trip. The silence ended when Joie finally opened her voice.
"Mom, Dad, if I ask for one wish and in return the birthday doesn't need to be celebrated and give me any gifts, do Mommy and Daddy want to grant it?" ask Joie.
"Why did the atmosphere turn heavy?" welcome Joel to glance at his daughter through the rearview mirror.
"It's not so," said Joie.
"I also have a request and just like Joie" Jordan said.
"The next year doesn't need to be celebrated and I'm not asking for any gifts" he added.
Ariel immediately looked back where Jordan and Joie were sitting in the back. Look at the faces of their two children in turn.
"What's wrong? You guys aren't usually like this" Ariel asked in a soft voice.
They both looked at each other and felt what they thought was the same.
"At home, Mom. We'll be there soon" replied Jordan.
Ariel frowned. Can't guess anything about what makes her two children nervous.
Until they were at home, they would still need more than thirty minutes to speak. Ariel and Joel waited patiently, sipping the drink they took from the refrigerator before they sat down to fill the long gap that formed between them.
"If I wanted to take care of a little sister, would Mom and Daddy allow it?" joie and Jordan asked at the same time.
'BUURRR,,,,!'
"UHUUKK,,,,,!!!"
Joel spits out the drink he just sipped, while Ariel does not spit out the drink to make him choke.
The question of two brothers is very surprising to them, even imagining the question was never the slightest bit of mind in Joel and Ariel..
Joel and Ariel stared at their two children, as if asking where the idea came from.
"What makes you think about it?" ariel wiped her mouth.
"Where did you get your idea of that?" ask Joel.
The two different questions both parents asked made them show their parents a serious face. It creates a long silence between them.
"Haahh,," said Ariel.
"Go back to your room, it's time to go to bed" Ariel said.
"What does it mean not to, Mom?" jordan asked with a disappointed face.
"It's not so," Ariel argued confused how to answer her son's question.
"A little sister is not like the stuff you can take and take care of just like you buy a pet" said Joel.
"We know, because we've read a book," they answered simultaneously.
Once again Joel and Ariel rounded their eyes. Between horror and pride because of the understanding of his two children above his age.
"Go to sleep, we'll discuss this next time," Joel replied.
"Good,,!" they answered back in unison but sounded lethargic.
They both went into their rooms. So did Joel and Ariel.
"Did I make a mistake in educating them?" ariel said as the two of them were in the room.
"Why do you think that?" greet Joel sitting on the edge of the bed while his wife is in the dresser chair while removing the makeup on her face..
"They haven't even turned ten yet, but how could they think of such a thing?" grouch Ariel.
"Why are you so sorry?" welcome Joel to laugh.
"I'm just worried that they're learning about things that they haven't yet learned" Ariel replied.
"Didn't you see how they looked when you asked?" ask Joel.
"I saw it" replied Ariel and bowed.
"They know and are aware of what they are asking. That's the problem, though," he continued.
"I don't think it's a problem" replied Joel getting up from his seat, stepping over to Ariel who was still sitting on the dresser chair.
"They want to take responsibility for looking after someone they love and protecting him, that's all" Joel said, wrapping his arms around his wife's shoulder.
"You say that just because you want it, don't you?" ariel stared at the image of her husband in the mirror.
"Not at all," replied Joel prodding his chin over his wife's head.
"To be honest I thought about it too," pause for a moment.
"About what if we give them a little sister" Joel said in a soft voice.
"Now you take advantage of the opportunity" Ariel quipped.
"If the opportunity clearly comes, why not?" reply Joel.
"Uhh, you even became very talented at playing the word," Ariel replied.
Joel guided his wife to stand up, facing her body towards him.
"They've been ten years, isn't it natural that they want to be able to protect someone smaller than them?" joel looked into his wife's eyes.
"It's true, but_,,,"
"Maybe we can get twins again, they get one each," joel said.
Ariel opened her eyes and immediately punched her husband in the chest.
"You're crazy,!" rutuk Ariel pressed her lips.
Joel chuckled at his wife's reaction, his hands wrapped around her waist, landing a loving kiss on her, until it ended on her lips.
