“You three don’t seems happy like you were before, do you want us to go to somewhere fun where you can shake away that cold face?” Mark asked, trying to cheer them up, though he won’t mind going if they answered him with a yes.
“Like a park! We can play the rollercoaster and I will get to sit down with Katherine and buy the same ice cream flavor with her!” Jose said out, causing Xander and Annabelle to exchange a stare and laughed, Katherine only smiled faintly.
Mark hit Jose head playfully, “Stop being ridiculous bro.”
“Wait, I thought I’m his best friend, then, why is he choosing my sister over me?” Xander said, pretending to be thinking.
“That simply means that your sister is more important than you!” Jose told him and they all laughed, this time, Katherine laughed with them when she saw Xander’s face.
“Now, I know why you always misbehave.” Annabelle said to Xander, “Why won’t you? When your best friend thinks of you as not so important.” She mocked him and Xander frown deepened.
“At least I still have someone to call a best friend, what of you that have no one? You are enemies to everyone in school!” Xander said back, wanting to get back at Annabelle.
“I’m having reasons for that Xander and it is simply because I don’t befriend senseless people and everyone in school are senseless except Mark and Katherine. I always thought that Jose too was sensible until you became his friend and he became senseless like you.” Annabelle said.
She was not looking at any of them, she was busy staring at her nails. If she had, she would have seen the angry stares giving to her from the side and front, though she felt the stares, she still didn’t care.
Xander and Jose were busy staring at Annabelle angrily while Mark and Katherine were laughing their asses out, though Mark tried to keep his laughter in check because he was driving.
“What! You think of me as senseless now? No wonder I don’t like you neither have I ever see you as a friend!” Jose said. Though he really cares about the triplets, he only wanted to get back at Annabelle who doesn’t seems to care about his outburst.
“Guess what Jose.” Annabelle said, raising her head to stared at Jose.
“What? Go away with your guessing game.” He replied frowning.
“Not like I really wanted to play a game with you, I just want to bring down your ego to the smallest level. Now listen, do you know that Katherine and I think alike? We are not like the dumb male among us.”
“Hey, don’t include me in your game.” Xander cut her short.
“Ignore him, he has always been like that since he met you.” Annabelle said to Jose, a frown crept on Jose and Xander’s face and Mark and Katherine busted into another rounds of laughter. That time they were already at home but Mark decided to laugh more before announcing to them all that they were home.
“So as I was saying Jose, since Katherine and I always think alike and in my thought, I think that you are senseless then imagine what Katherine will be thinking of you as.” Annabelle said.
“That is a fat lie, Katherine cannot think of me like that, you are just trying to make me feel bad.” Jose said with a frowny face, Annabelle’s last statement really got him, he was only trying not to cry. “I will not agree with you until Katherine herself talks, whatever she says will clear the air. Katherine, what do you think of me as?” All of them kept quiet immediately, waiting for Katherine to talk.
Katherine stared at Jose and that time, he was like the cutest thing she have ever seen, “Just like Drac.” She thought.
“Come on Katherine, we are waiting.” Jose said, a smile was gently forming on his face as he stared back at her.
“I always don’t see you but now, looking at you closely, I see that you are really senseless, stupid, you are also a talkative but you are cute like my cat, meow. Thank you Mark for taking us out today, I really had some fun.” Katherine said and alighted from the car immediately, going inside their house. She could hear the laugher in the car even as walked further away from it.
“Wow I love her last statement, she said that you are cute like Drac, if only you know how ugly Drac is, you could have been crying by now.” Annabelle added between her laugher.
“That is a lie, Drac can’t be ugly!” Jose said, not wanting them to spoil his mood.
“Well you wish. Come on Xander let’s go or mom will come outside and drag us in and we will be grounded.” Annabelle said, already alighting from the car too.
“Bye Mark. Thank you.” Xander said and ran to meet up with Annabelle.
“She really thinks I’m ugly, I will stop crushing on her, she is no more my type.” Jose said, still annoyed. “But Mark, do you really think I’m stupid?”
Mark ignite the car and zoomed off from the Morgan’s house going towards theirs, “I thought you said that you won’t crush on her anymore, I thought she is no more your type, then why will you still care about her thoughts about you.”
“I hate you so much, you are not a good brother to me, you suppose to say nice things to me. I will beg mom to give me three babies, so that I will not be stuck with you always again!”
Mark’s laughter filled the car as they drove off.

The Morgan kids just locked themselves in since they returned from the mall and Luna was getting worried even as it was already night and she was sure that they would be sleeping by now, she couldn’t helped but to wondered, “What could have gone wrong?” But she sighed, trying to concentrate on the book she was reading.
“I will just check up on them later before I sleep.” She concluded and continued with her work.

“I can’t get the stranger off my mind.” Xander said to Annabelle as they both sat down on his bed.
The kids’ room was bigger than Luna’s own and they had their different beds in the room. Xander’s own was the first one on the right, followed by Annabelle’s own, then Katherine’s own. The room was painted in gray, blue and golden colors.
“I can’t too. I’m thinking that we should tell mummy about it, she cannot be clueless like us.” Annabelle said.
“Tell mummy what?”
