Chapter 243.
Tristan's pov.
We can all see how the twins ignore a lot of the grownups this morning. We can also see both twins have some love bites on their necks.
Even though I wish it would be me that was with our girl yesterday, I'm honestly grateful that Makoto took so good care of her. And that Calvin could be there for Ian.
After breakfast, the 'band' went to the music room on the second floor. The rest of us went outside to the porch and sat down. The slide doors opened all the way, between the living room and porch.
Even if it's only a little after 9 o'clock in the morning, the sun is already out.
We all sat down around the tables around here and conversations were made around the tables.
"Yeah it seems like us grownups are in for the silent treatment regarding the twins." Seb said rubbing his neck.
"Guess they must be upset for how we push for information about their past all the time." Uncle Federico said sadly.
"You can't really blame them though." Caleb said looking at the grownups.
"Like the twins know you all want information about their past. But like Ian said yesterday, it's 12 years they have to remember and tell you about. They are used to a very action filled day, every day. So I honestly do see it from their side, if none of the twins was badly injured. It's not something that stick out for them." Auntie Cecile said a little carefully.
Yeah we have started to call Cecile auntie and we also slowly start to call our principal uncle, as well our two coaches. They all just stay here since the incident with the twins at school.
None of them have other family members to go home to, so they could just stay here. Now that Cecile has sworn in to the mafia as well, we all trust her. Most importantly the twins does and we trust the twins.
"You are right." Auntie Sofia said with a sad smile. "I do wonder what other people they have come across in their past. Ian said the Yakuza isn't the only ones, and we also know about Damon. But who else?" Uncle Fabian said deep in thoughts.
"Do you know Seb?" Sam asked looking at Seb curiously. "Honestly I can't say, not anyone that truly sticks out to us, but they have been going on a lot of missions solo." He said also deep in thoughts.
"Well I do know they have some run in's with the triad and that the triad respect them as well." Makoto suddenly said and we all looked at him in shock.
"Your kidding right? The triad as in the Chinese crime organization?" Angelo asked in shock.
"It's true." Kenji said seriously. "What the hell have the twins done to run in to the triads?" Arthur asked shocked.
"How they got to know them, we don't know. But during their stay with us, they had to call the triad for a favor to help in our investigation against the people killing my family members." Kenji said with a serious face.
"The twins can just call THE triad for favors? Just like that? Like what the fuck? How in the world have they been able to earn that right?" Harry asked absolutely baffled.
The Yakuza members all shrugged their shoulders. So none of them knows.
"But I don't think we should press the twins for information any time soon." Bella said seriously. "They are already upset with us all." She added and we nodded our heads.
"You are right, we will give the twins a break. We know they had to revisit a lot of painful memories yesterday." Dante said sadly.
Just then, a window on the second floor was opened. We all looked up and so it was Max open it, but he kept looking into the room with a smile on his face.
We heard some laughter come from the window, and always hearing the twins laugh brings a smile to our face.
Not long after they started to play a song.
(Still frame-CS)
We all just kept sitting here in silence now listen to their songs.
As always, their songs are hard to listen to.
"Wow, this song is so deep, they are saying so much in just this one song." Auntie Cecile said looking up at the window sadly.
When they were done with the song, it was a little pause but then they played it again but it was slightly different. So they most try to figure out the best way to make the message come out clearer.
"What do you take out of the song Cecile?" Auntie Sienna asked looking at Cecile.
"Honestly it can be so much." Auntie Cecile said looking at auntie Sienna before she look back at the window. They started playing the same song again.
"The song focus on being trapped by painful, haunting memories and the inability to move past the past, which functioning as a mental replay." She started to explain.
"The metaphor 'Still frame' represents being stuck in a traumatic moment, with memories that refuse to fade. The song also highlights the anxiety, 'static', and mental exhaustion of constantly reliving painful, unchangeable events. They express the desire a relief from the mental torment that only sleep often gives them." She said looking back at us all with a small smile.
"It's honestly a powerful song even if they play it very softly." She said still smiling.
"Wow. It's honestly so amazing how they can put so many variables together in one song." Caleb said in awe.
"Yeah it was amazing to see how their though process was, making some songs this morning. What key parts they wanted to focus on. And they discussed it out loud so me and Makoto got and inside in how they do it." Calvin said and Makoto nodded with a smile.
"Yeah, I'm used to them just make their songs in their head. That's what they did when we were together with them in the past. But seeing the way they build up a song was amazing. Then they also discussed what instruments should come in where, and how they should be played." Makoto said and we all just looked at them in awe.
"I'm honestly envious that you two got to see that." Tom said and we all nodded and voiced our agreement.
After that it was quiet from the music room for a little. Before we heared Milo whine a little.
"Bambina I don't get it." He said loud enough so we heard him, and it's like we can even hear the pout he had on his face right now.
Then it was a lot of laughter coming from the room. Before we heared some serious amazing drum play for a little.
"Was that Elina?" Many of us asked in unison and in shock.
Then we all looked at all the BS members waiting for them to answer but all of them shrugged their shoulders.
"I honestly don't know if she can play anything other than acoustic guitar and piano." Seb said honestly.
