"What’s going on, Jens?" Angeline questioned Jenson a s soon as she closed the door.
Jenson walked up to Mommy wearing an extremely solemn and dignified look on his attractive face. His deep and profound almond eyes were shimmering with tears of reluctance.
Jenson bowed, and Angeline stood dumbfoundedly on the spot. "What do you mean by that, Jens?"
Jenson raised his eyelids, his thin lips parting slightly. "Mommy, I heard that you have superb makeup skills. I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Angeline held the child's shoulders and laughed. "You don’t have to bow to me for something as trivial as this."
Jens’s long wing-like eyelashes started trembling. He bowed to Mommy because he was about to part from her. He did not know if he could make it back alive after leaving for the military intelligence division...
"How do you want me to apply the makeup on you, Jens?" Angeline brought her makeup kit over.
Jenson's lips moved, then he eventually summoned u p the courage to say, "I want to look like Baby Robbie."
Angeline dropped the cotton pad in her hands and
stared at Jenson in surprise. "Why?"
Jenson forced himself to calm down. "It's New Year’s Eve tomorrow, Mommy. Baby Robbie and I are supposed to be identical twins, so it makes perfect sense for us to look the same. Since Baby Robbie has misgivings about this, let me be the one to fulfill his wish then."
Fulfill Baby Robbie's wish?
Angeline could not help but think that Jenson sounded really strange, but since he was at an innocent and naive age, she thought that his strange thoughts were not enough to raise an alarm.
Angeline smiled and said, "Okay."
Jenson sat quietly in front of Mommy as she put on his disguise.
He cast his gaze firmly on Angeline's gentle and compassionate face, gently outlining Mommy’s features over and over again like a paintbrush until her kind face had been deeply imprinted in his mind.
