Confused Boyfriend

Frank’s POV

“Tada!! ” Said Freddie just as he opened the door for me to come in.

“Freddie!! ” I called out and jumped on him excitedly.

“I’ve been waiting for you like forever” He said.

“Well, I had to stop by somewhere before coming home. Oh my God Freddie, you have began to grow mustache” I teased him and he frowned in a funny way.

“No Frank, come on stop it! ” He said and I laughed.

“Did you come with Uncle Timothy? ” I asked him.

Freddie stays with our uncle, Timothy.

“He did not come along with me, didn’t I tell you that he travelled? He left me in his home, bored and tired ”

“Oh you must have told me but I’ve forgotten. So it means, he won’t be attending our birthday party? ” I asked him.

“Well yeah but he promised to make it up to us when he returns” He said.

“Oh” I nodded. “Where’s mom and Dad? ” I asked him.

Usually, whenever I return from school, I’ll always find them in the living room or the dinning room to welcome me.

“They’ve retired to bed, they had a stressful day at work today and besides, you came home late from school today” He said as he hung my school bag on his back. “How was school today? ” Freddie asked.

“It was fine and yours? ”

“Boring… I swear” He said – again. “Thank God, I’ll be taking a long break from school”

“Have your dinner then we’ll talk about everything till you doze off first”

“Uh, And what if you doze off before me? ”

“Should we put a bet to it? ” He asked me.

And I laughed and shook my head: “No, no, I agree” I had to say.

“Let’s go to the room, I have no appetite to eat, seeing you alone has fed me. The last time we saw eachother was on our last birthday or so” I said.

“No it wasn’t, it was on Christmas day” He corrected.

“But it looks like the last century” I said as if I was going to whimper then I pulled him over and hugged him again. “I really miss you Freddie, Twins are not meant to be separated, I still don’t know why you prefer to attend Dream high and it’s so far away from here”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I’m very sorry dear but you don’t have to worry about it, we will be attending the same college soon” He told me.

“Oh come on in, you and I have so much to tell eachother” I said holding his head and almost pulling him to my room – our room actually.

“You know what Frank, I’m so furious with you” He suddenly said when we almost got to the room.

“What? Why? ”

“I saw the invitation cards you printed, why didn’t you include my name? ” He asked me.

“Well… I.. Err…” I stammered.. We are unidentical and we literally don’t like the same thing.

“Do you want a separate birthday? “He asked me.

“No, that’s not what I mean. Many people don’t even know I have a twin brother except for Angela” I told him.

“Are you hiding me or something? ”

“No, why would I? but I already made up my mind to tell them on our birthday ” I said: “Besides, you love to do things your own way, if I had included your name on the IV, you may not be happy about it” I said while we stood by our room door.

“Uhm, you are right and that’s what brings about what I have to tell you about the upcoming party”

I opened the door and we walked in, into our beautiful male-ly room.

“What is it? ” I asked as I sat on my bed.

It’s a double decker bed, mine is the one below and his’ is above.

“I don’t like crowdy places, I didn’t even invite any of my friends, I hope you invited only few people? ” He asked me and I gave a false smile; little did he know that I have invited the whole school.

“Did you say you didn’t invite anyone? Not even your girlfriend or are you gonna tell me you don’t have one yet? ” I asked him.

“Well…”

“Wow, you already have one” I exclaimed and i faced him, eager to know about it, atlas my- unable-to-fall-in-love-twin brother is finally in love. I can see it in his face.

“No, I don’t have a girlfriend yet but it’s just a wish I really want to come true” He said.

“What do you mean? ”

“I have a crush bighead! ” He said and playfully hitting me on the head.

“Really? What’s the name the girl that got you hooked up this way? ” I asked.

“Her name is P–”

“Hold on, I almost forgot to speak with someone” I interrupted him then returned to sit on my bed, slide out my phone out of my pocket then I dialed Paulina’s number.

She picked it up almost immediately.

? “Hello dear, how are you feeling now? ” I asked.

.. Then noticed Freddie was trying to say something to me, since I was already on a phone call, I had to just read his lips.

“I wanna call my crush too” That’s what he mouthed.

I nodded and watched him take his phone and climbed the short ladder to his own mattress.
