Chapter 1: Aphelia arrives
(Aphelia's view)
I stepped out of the taxi, the warm afternoon breeze blowing my dark hair into my face as I made my way up the steps to my "Brother" 's place. I looked it up and down with distaste.
"Jesus, this twin of mine sure is rich." I thought, as I raised a gloved hand to knock on the door.
It was opened by an elderly woman with kind eyes.
"Ms. Cerulli, welcome! your twin is expecting you." she said, and I smiled thankfully at her.
"Thank you, I'll be right up." I said, as I climbed the stairs and made my way towards the study.
I raised my hand to knock, when the door was opened by a tall man with the same pale complexion as my own.
"come in." he said, as he held the door open for me. "Hello," I greeted, as I sat down across from him.
"How are you?" he asked, and I shrugged. "I'm fine, how about you?"I asked, and he smiled at me.
"I'm fine, just a little nervous about meeting you for the first time." he said, and I smiled back.
"I must admit, I too am a little nervous to finally meet you in person." I said, and he grinned. "My name is Christopher Thomas Cerulli, I was born on the seventeenth of October 1986." he said, and I smiled back.
"My name is Aphelia-Sabina Cerulli, I too was born on the seventeenth of October 1986." I said, and he smiled.
"What's your favorite color?" he asked, and as if we'd been thinking the same thing we said, "Black!" then looked at each other and chuckled.
"Well, I've had my maids prepare a room for you." he said, and I chuckled.
"Thank you, but you didn't need to do that." I said, and he shook his head.
"Nonsense Phelia, I felt that it would be impolite to not have a place for you to sleep." he said, and I smiled at him. "Alright Chrissy, if you insist." I said, as I kissed his cheek causing him to smile.
