Stepping out the front door, I walked silently alongside the twins until arriving at the bottom of the drive, upon which the three of us stopped.
"Are you sure you'll be alright, Sir?" An older butler asked me with a hint of worry in his tone and a crease in his brow.
"I said I'm fine."
"Yes... Then, we shall greet you upon your safe return."
Nodding, he turned to the black SUV beside him and opened the back door before waiting for the twins.
""...""
Wearing their brand new school uniforms and having the princess-themed rucksacks slung over their shoulders, the two of them just stared at me.
"What?"
""...Ciphy...""
In unison, they called my nickname. Then, they each raised a hand and slowly waved at me.
"Bye..."
"...See you later."
Huh.
Well, I would certainly hope I see them later―the twins going missing would greatly inconvenience me, after all.
"Yeah."
