5 years later
Inside a beautiful old western-style mansion, everyone was silent except for a few workers in the house which was busy with each of their respective tasks. Flinn Robertson was surveying the house as if he was searching for someone. He was playing hide-and-seek with the twins but he has yet to find their hiding place. He was calling their names as he searched for them.
"Sonne, Mond, here comes daddy."
After he passed by their antique display case in their west lobby, he heard giggling noises from the bottom part of the display case. The display case was divided into two parts. Three-fourth of the display case was all glass while the remaining was two two-door cabinets. He heard whispers and giggles from one of the two-door cabinets.
"Daddy is so silly" Said Mond then giggles. Sonne followed suit. And said,
"Shhh. Don't be so noisy or he'll find us."
From outside the cabinet, stifled giggles can be heard. Flinn couldn't help but smile as he listened in on his twins. A couple of minutes later, he slowly opened the cabinet doors as he sweetly called their names. After their game has finished, they heard their steward call on them for their lunch. They excitedly went to their garden where they saw their food being prepared and set up by Cindy. When Cindy noticed her husband and daughters, she smiled at them as she called them over the table. They had a harmonious lunch. The steward and the maids attending to the also can't help smiling upon seing their happy atmosphere.
Flinn: "Oh honey, before I forget, can you help me pack for my business trip for the next day?".
Cindy smiled and said, " Sure honey. Where are you going this time around?".
Flinn slightly lowered his voice hoping the twins won't hear him, "Hongkong" he replied.
The twins looked at each other with sparkling eyes as they excitedly said in unison, "Hongkong?!"
Flin can't help but smile awkwardly. He thought to himself, "Uh oh". He then looked at his wife pleading for help but instead of her help, he saw her smile. " Double uh oh" He thought. He can't help but sigh in defeat as he saw he was in the minority.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell Fran to arrange for us to go together" He smiled as he left the table to call for his assistant. After a couple of minutes, he came back to a totlly adorable sight. He saw his wife's and daughters' eager faces. He sighed sadly, causing the twins to also slowly lower their heads in disappointment.
"I'm sorry honey..." He paused then with a smile on his face he winked at his wife who's looking at him intensely. Seeing his wife smile in understanding, he continued,
"We can only stay there for four days!!!" He excitedy said.
The twins then immediately raised their heads and looked at their parents, who were smiling towards them amusingly. They immediately leaped with joy and they thanked their parents and kissed both their cheeks. They hurriedly ran to their room discussing what they wanted to bring and what they wanted to do during their vacation. Flinn and Cindy watched them happily chatting. When the two princess disappeared from their view, they immediately turned serious.
Cindy asked worriedly, "What did your uncle do this time?". She turned to her husband with a worried look on her face.
Seing the anxiousness his wife had, Flinn smiled, " Thank you for worrying hon, it's nothing major but I am still worried for your and the twins' safety so I decided to add more security when we go on our vacation. Is that okay?".
Cindy nodded. She understood the troubles his husband is facing in his job. His uncle, his father's half brother, have been causing trouble ever since Flinn inherited and improved the company by leaps and bounds.
