A week later after the funeral we flew back home, one morning as I was preparing breakfast, I heard Hollen coming downstairs,
"Good morning" I greeted as I saw her from the kitchen door
"What are you doing?"
"Preparing breakfast, come have a seat"
"Zhan never prepare the breakfast, I do"
"Well, maybe it's time I prepare the breakfast. You're four months pregnant"
"Hey, when we're only the two of us, stop pretending as him"
I looked at her "I promised my brother that I'll be him when he died, being your husband is a part of it"
"You can't be my husband"
"Alright, then I'm preparing breakfast. Sit down"
"Geez, and I have to deal with you for seven years" she said as she sits "Pancakes?"
"Yup"
"Zhan never cooks it"
"Just try it"
She took a bite "This is delicious"
I smiled
"Zhan never cook delicious food"
"Well I am now"
There was silence when we started eating,
"So what should I call you?" she breaks
"What do you mean?"
"What's your real name?"
"Zhan"
"That's your brother's name"
"it's the same"
"How could that happen?"
"Our parents gave us the same name"
"Ridiculous"
I smiled as I sipped my coffee, then we heard a knocked on the door
"Expecting someone?" I asked
She shook "Who might it be?" she said as she walks to the door and opened it
"Welcome home couz!" The blonde lady said as she hugged Hollen
"Hey, good to see you" Hollen said
"Can I come in?"
"Yeah"
Hollen's family really are beauties, the woman who just came on the door was Hollen's cousin, Avery. I studied everyone who's closest to Hollen and Zhan. Avery's a dentist and the closest of all to Hollen. She was her bestfriend.
"Morning Zhan" Avery greeted and smiled
"Morning"
"Oh, you have pancakes." She said as she took one "This is delicious"
"Thank you" I said
Avery looked at me "You cooked this?"
"Yeah"
"Oh my God, what happened in New York that made you to cook delicious?"
"Something excited I guess" I said and smiled
"What brings you here Avery?" Hollen asked
"Well, it's been a month since I last saw you and I really missed shopping with you. Could you please, please go with me?"
"Well" Hollen looked at me "Can I go?"
"It wouldn't take long" Avery said
"Alright" I said
