The next morning, I was awakened by the sound of my doorbell ringing. I got out of bed and went to answer it. To my surprise, I found the twins who lived near my house, standing outside.
Emily and Nuile are popular girls with tanned skin, big eyes, small lips, and dyed hair that matched their lipstick. Emily's hair was dyed red, while Nuile's was blue. They wore lots of layers and were always impeccably dressed.
"Morning, Adriel," one of them said, greeting me.
"Hi, Emily," I replied, recognizing her immediately.
The other twin, Nuile, chimed in, "Are you coming to the party tonight?"
"We didn't tell you? You're invited."
I was taken aback. I had no idea there was a party.
"The new volume of the novel I've been waiting for is out today," I said, changing the subject.
"Didn't Svneigther release a volume a while ago?" Emily asked.
"Yeah, but it's different from the first. I was hoping for a sequel, but it's a whole other story," I explained.
"Don't worry, sister, I was expecting this," Nuile said, taking the novel I wanted. "There are no more excuses."
"Come over at eight o'clock," Nuile added, handing me the book.
"Okay. See you later," I replied, saying goodbye.
After that, I went to Emma's room to ask for some fashion advice.
"Hey, Adriel," Emma greeted me. "What's up?"
"Can I ask you something?" I said.
"Of course," Emma replied.
"Do you know anything about fashion?" I asked.
"Sure. Do you need advice?" she asked.
"No, just curious. I'm going to a party tonight, and I want to be fashionable, but I don't know how. Can you help me?"
Emma thought for a moment before responding, "Well, some girls like to be flashy. Others prefer to look chic. Some go for classy, while others choose to shine bright. What style do you aim for?"
After a moment of contemplation, I spoke up. "I think I want something casual. Something soft and comfortable."
"Really?" Emma responded, her eyes scanning her closet. "Well, let's see what we can find."
She began sifting through her clothes and pulled out a stack of options. "What do you think of these?" she asked, holding them up for me to see.
"Very nice," I replied, examining the fabrics.
"Great, then try this one on," she said, handing me an outfit.
As I changed, Emma continued to offer suggestions. "How about this one? Or this one? Oh, and don't forget to use the light makeup I recommended."
"Thanks for all your help," I said as I finished changing.
"No problem, have a great time tonight," she replied with a smile.
Exiting my room, Emma called after me, "Ah, it looks good on you!"
Surprised, I shouted back, "How did you know?"
"Just a hunch," she answered, confident in her fashion sense.
"And you were right. It suits me perfectly," I exclaimed, feeling more confident in my outfit.

I had been expecting a lively party, but when I arrived, only the twins were there to greet me.
"Hey, what happened?" I asked, puzzled by the lack of guests.
"Everyone canceled at the last minute," Emily explained, disappointment etched on her face.
Despite the change in plans, the twins had dressed up in coordinating outfits. Emily wore a stunning deep blue dress with black lace trim, braids weaved into her hair, and matching earrings. Nuile had opted for a white blouse and a dark gray skirt, completing the elegant look.
Although the evening wasn't what I had anticipated, I was grateful for the company of the twins and their impeccable fashion sense.
"Are you excited?" Emily asked, a glint of excitement in her eyes.
"I'm a bit nervous," I admitted.
"Well, let's go inside and get the party started!"
As we walked into the beautifully decorated room, my nerves began to subside. The table was filled with cakes and candies, and pitchers of drinks were scattered throughout the room.
"Have a seat, I'll get us some food," Nuile offered, getting up from her chair and disappearing into the kitchen.
"Thanks," I replied, sinking into a chair.
As we finished eating, Emily suddenly stood up and declared, "Let's dance!"
"I'm game," I responded with a smile.
Emily put on her headphones and started dancing, pulling me along with her.
"What's going on?" I asked, feeling a bit confused.
"We're having a little dance party," she replied, a mischievous glint in her eye.
I shrugged and followed her lead, trying to keep up with her impressive moves.
"This is very strange," I muttered under my breath.
"What's strange?" Emily asked, her voice filled with amusement.
"Nothing, it's just not what I was expecting," I admitted.
"Want to hear one of our favorite songs?" she offered, switching off the music player.
"Yes, please," I replied, curious about their music preferences.
As the music started, we heard a knock at the door.
"Ignore it," Emily instructed, but to our surprise, the door swung open by itself.
"Hello brother, I decided to participate in the party too," Emma announced, grabbing my arm.
"Emma?" I questioned, feeling a bit bewildered.
"Let's dance!" she exclaimed, pulling me toward the center of the room.
