Chapter 119 – Accepting My Twin Mates – I of III

The plane juddered as the tires made contact with the runway, screeching to a slow roll on Opal Sun’s landing strip.

‘Land!’ Evva exclaimed. ‘I could kiss it.’

‘You kiss the ground, I’ll keep our breakfast down,’ I fisted my hand to my mouth.

My stomach was still in motion from the landing, as though it lingered somewhere up in the clouds and hadn’t rejoined Earth.

“Solnyshko?” My father’s fingertips brushed my elbow, handing me a thin fold of paper. “Is this what bag is for?”

The corner of my mouth lopsidedly quirked in amusement, accepting the paper bag as a precaution even though my stomach was beginning to float back down.

The plane pulled into a large hangar and I could see a tall man through the small window waiting by a set of cars, vaguely recognising him as Catalina’s brother. A curvaceous woman stood at his side, bundled up in a downy coat, and her long brunette hair hung in elegant waves from her pom-pom beanie, the tips of her tresses dyed red. I recognised her too from the twins’ party.

“Ok, guys,” Catalina jumped up when the plane came to a standstill and the engines slowly died down. “Let’s get the hell off this thing!”

Diego stood after her, his posture no longer slumped in exhaustion and his skin no longer pallid. She yanked him forward and down the steps, throwing her arms around her brother and the woman at his side, the three of them speaking too rapidly in Spanish for my limited vocabulary set to keep up with what was said. With how she jerked Diego forward yet again, it was a round of greetings.
