Chanyeol was reading a newspaper over a cup of brewed coffee when the door flung open and revealed his brother with a paper bag of his favorite coffee shop in one hand. "Hello, my brother!" Chanho greeted. Chanyeol nodded in response, eyes then went back to the paper.   "I brought muffins and croissants! How was your sleep?"    "Good. How's mom and dad?" He took one croissant and took a bite.   "They're good! They were asking me if you have any plans on meeting them, though. I told them you said you're too busy with your works to go home." Chanho answered, taking one muffin and eating it with so much gusto. If he liked croissants, Chanho, on the other hand loved muffins. "Oh, can I start telling you the details now? My flight is later at seven in the evening, so..."   "Tonight?!" he exclaimed, almost spitting his food. "What? Why so early?"   Chanho gave an apologizing look and scratched his head. "He-he, I just forgot to tell you. Anyway, you already know me inside and out since we're twins, right? So acting like me would be easy for you. Just don't forget to be sweet and to smile always, okay?" Chanho tapped his shoulder and gave him an encouraging look.   "Have you met this guy already?" he asked. That was the thing he was very curious about.   "Nope. You will meet him the day after tomorrow, as what dad told me. Don't worry, dad told me he's soooooo good-looking. No need to be scared! Oh, and I already fixed your hotel payments, okay? Mr. Kim will just come here by six to pick you up. About your luggage, don't worry about it because mom and dad knew I will go out of town. Just tell them you cancelled it."   Chanyeol started to feel headache. What did he get himself into?   "Okay..."

  T H E P A R K S' M AN S I O N     "Hey, mom, dad," Chanyeol greeted, trying to smile like how his brother would. But he wasn't that sure whether if it came out as natural as he wanted it to be or it looked like as if he was cringing. His mom gave him a peck on the cheek while his dad patted his head.   "I thought you'd be back tomorrow night?" his mom curiously asked.   "I... I cancelled it." he answered, feeling bad that he needed to lie in front of his parents.   "Are you okay, son? You seem different today." his dad finally spoke.   "Yes, of course I am! What are you saying dad, I'm just tired I guess," he answered.   His mom told their maids to grab his luggages and bring it inside Chanho's room. He was feeling nervous because if he were to get caught, he knew what would happen to him and his twin. So he must work hard on putting up a good show so their efforts won't go into waste.   "Son, let's eat dinner and discuss about your meeting with the Wu's on Sunday." his dad said as he grabbed his elbow and led him to the dining hall.   On the midst of their dinner, his father finally opened the topic he was afraid the most.   "So, last night you told me you were very much excited to meet your fiancé. Are you still feeling the same, Chanho?" Chanyeol felt his hands froze while holding the spoon and fork, his eyes glued on his plate. Him? Excited? Damn his brother! He cleared his throat before answering.    "Of course! I'm so looking forward on meeting him. Uhm, what should I wear then?" His parents shot him a confused look. He swallowed the lump that formed on his throat. Did he say something wrong? "W-why?" he finally asked.   "I thought I already gave you what you will wear last night. Aren't your clothes on your closet already? You even told me
