The twins looked at each other nervously as Davin neared them.
“Hey, this is unusual for Uncle Davin to fetch us back so early from the kindergarten and even make us hide here. Do you think there is something fishy about it?”
“Of course there is,” Kyle replied firmly. He and Davin were never on good terms, so he was even more suspicious of Davin’s sinister intentions.
“What is he up to?” Juan asked while blinking his obsidian-like dark orbs.
Kyle was just as bewildered as well. With his eyes fixed on Davin, who was now looking everywhere for them, Kyle uttered coolly, “If he has any ulterior motives for doing this, then we have to teach him a lesson.”
“Juan!”
“Kyle!”
Davin wanted to shout their names, yet he dared not called out too loudly, hence he could only lower his volume and ‘yelled’ softly in the backyard.
The twins exchanged looks again and got up from their hiding spot with pebbles in their hands before throwing them in Davin’s direction.
“Ouch! My face!”
Davin turned around with his hands covering his face. “You two little brats! Don’t you know you’re not supposed to hit anyone on their face?”
“Oh, we didn’t hit anyone.” Kyle eyed him coolly.
“Yeah, we only threw some stones,” Juan corrected him seriously.
“You! Fine, fine! You win this time.”
“I don’t need you to tell me that.”
Davin could only sigh deep down and had to continue putting up his fawning smile. He really needed their help now, so it was not the right time to offend them. I’ve gotta make them happy so that they will help me.
“Uncle Davin, why are you fetching us so early from the kindergarten and even ask us to hide here?”
Davin’s eyes flickered cunningly as he reconstructed his sentences and looked at them kindly.
“I want to give you two a chance to show off!”
Show off?
The twins exchanged glances again.
With a frown, Kyle turned back to Davin defensively, while Juan blinked his eyes curiously.
