"Old man, how long will you be sulking over your defeat?" Minyoon yawned as he lazily leaned against the couch. Junho had been grumbling all morning because he lost twenty dollars to the damn twins for misidentifying them all day. He was in the open kitchen, trying to cook noodles but in reality was probably burning them to a crisp since his cooking skills were abysmal.

"How can someone get our identities wrong twenty times?" Yoonmin asked out loud. He was sitting at the dining table, reading a book on business modules. "Our hairstyles are different now."

"I have pink hair at the moment and Yoonmin is stuck with that thug look," Minyoon told his grandfather.

"I got it!" Junho scowled at the two evil geniuses. "You two have the same faces! Anyone would get confused. I'm an old man after all."

"You haven't been able to tell us apart since the day we were born," Yoonmin pointed out, turning a page in his book. "That has got to be some kinda record."

"We've probably earned half our income from you, old man," Minyoon nodded. Junho merely groaned and continued to cook. The twins lived in a flat above their aunt's house, occupying the space to themselves. It was really a penthouse which they rented from their uncle.

They had their own bedrooms along with a guest room where Junho occasionally stayed whenever he was in town. At the moment, the three of them were enjoying a lazy Sunday. Thanks to Jina's punishment, the twins were not allowed to go out so they were tormenting their grandfather instead.

"Old man, guess which twin am I?" Minyoon asked. Junho frowned as if trying to recognize him.

"Yoonmin!" Junho declared. "You're Yoonmin!"

"Nope!" Minyoon said in a cheery tone. "I'm Minyoon. Now pay up."

"You're lying!" Junho claimed. "That's Minyoon!"

He pointed at Yoonmin who shook his head and hid his face behind the book out of embarrassment. Yoonmin knew very well that his grandfather lost on purpose, letting his grandsons extract every penny he had under the pretext of his bet. The old man was grumpy but had a soft spot for all his family members. This was his weird way to playfully banter with his grandsons.

"Here!" Junho pretended to scowl, handing Minyoon two one dollar notes.

"Twenty one against zero," Minyoon smirked. He handed one note to Yoonmin while pocketing the other one for himself.

The doorbell rang. Minyoon was about to answer the door but to his surprise, Yoonmin hurried over to open it. Even Junho was curious to see his usually cool and aloof grandson getting so hyped up.

Yoonmin opened the door to find Soobin standing outside.

"Did you get what I wanted?" he panted. Soobin was taken aback by Yoonmin's state. He looked as if he was running.

"Y-Yes!" she squeaked.

Soobin was shy because this was also Minyoon's house and she was eager to catch a glimpse of her dear idol. She was tiptoeing over Yoonmin's shoulder to see if her Minmin was there but Yoonmin blocked the way, making her scowl.

"Here are the mercs," she said.

She handed Yoonmin a bag full of merchandise. Soobin collected it all from various fans for a charity campaign Minyoon had launched. Yoonmin had told her to bring the merchandise to their penthouse which confused Soobin a little because she could have just sent it via courier. But the strange guy just kept on insisting that she should bring it herself as the president of the site.

Minyoon and Junho were peeking at Yoonmin from behind a pillar. To their absolute shock, Yoonmin was...blushing?

"Old man, is that my thug twin?" Minyoon asked in disbelief. "Is he blushing?"

"He is," Junho nodded, completely stunned.

It was usually Minyoon who got attention from girls thanks to his pretty boy image. Yoonmin's thug look, on the other hand, scared girls away. He had adopted the bad boy style simply to keep people from annoying him especially after his twin became popular. People sometimes confused the two of them so he went for this rouge and rebellious style.

And now, he was blushing in front of a girl?

"This I gotta see!" Minyoon exclaimed. He was about to go and tease his brother when his grandfather held him by the collar and pulled him back.

"First tell me, who's the girl," Junho hissed.

"She's a classmate!" Minyoon replied. "Her name is Soobin. She recently moved to town and was also a witness to one of sis' murder cases-"

"Tell me the important details!" Junho snapped.

"She seems like a good person and was good with kids at the orphanage," Minyoon recalled. "And I think she's a waitress at a nearby cafe."

"Ah, now I know why Yoonmin likes her," Junho realized. "The girl is independent from a very young age. Grandpa approves."

"I don't think any of us would care much for your approval," Minyoon muttered.

Both of them watched as Yoonmin conversed with the girl. Soobin was trying to catch a glimpse of Minyoon but Yoonmin was blocking her way.

"Are there any more merchandise coming in?" Yoonmin asked, trying to keep his tone steady. He could not help himself. For some reason, he felt flabbergasted whenever Soobin was around and mildly irritated whenever she spoke about his twin. He could have asked her to send the mercs via courier but a very tiny part of him wanted to see her outside of school.

"I think another batch will come in tomorrow afternoon," Soobin said thoughtfully. "I'll have someone deliver it-"

"As the president of the fansite, you should take responsibility and deliver it yourself," he claimed. "After all, the delivery man might break stuff! My company isn't gonna pay for the broken mercs. You'll have to answer the fans yourself in that case."

"Huh?" Soobin frowned. "I can't travel all the way here so much! The taxis charge a lot and I have to change two buses to reach this part of town. And the subway station is far away!"

"You don't want to see your idol?" Yoonmin baited. "After all, he lives here."

Soobin thought about it, weighing the pros and cons. The only pro was that she was going to visit Minyoon's house a lot and that outweighed the hundreds of other cons.

"That's right," she nodded. "But I also want discounted rates for his next concert! I'm already spending a lot on traveling just to see him!"

Yoonmin scowled a little before replying, "Fine! I'll give you half off."

"Yaii!" Soobin cheered. "I'll see you tomorrow then!"

With that, she danced away, happy that she was going to visit her idol's house again. Yoonmin sighed and closed the door. He turned around to find his twin snickering while his grandfather was peering at him with suspicion.

"What are your plans with that girl?" Junho asked in a stern tone.

"Nothing!" Yoonmin claimed. "Nothing at all! S-she's just Minyoon's fan and wanted to drop off some broken mercs she bought from us. I'll exchange them for her."

"Remember the family tradition, Yoonmin," Junho stated in a serious tone. "If you wanna marry her then you gotta earn more than your dad. All Hwang men follow this tradition!"

"Is that why your father chased you out of the house when you wanted to marry grandma?" Minyoon asked. "Coz you couldn't earn more than him and great grandpa thought you were not worthy of grandma?"

Junho gritted at the awful memory. His late wife was adored by his father as if she was his own daughter and to him, his own son was worthless because Junho earned only a hundred thousand dollars less than his father. It took months for Junho to close that gap and finally, he was allowed to marry his beloved.

"I'm fifteen you freaks!" Yoonmin snapped at them. "A minor!"

"Then you still have three more years to close that gap," Junho nodded. "Work harder my grandson and win over your girl!"

My family is crazy, Yoonmin groaned inwardly.

"I'd rather stay celibate!" he stated. "Ya'll are mad!"

"Hey, we want you to succeed in winning her over!" Minyoon claimed.

"I can give tips to you," Junho offered. "I may not look like it but I was quite the ladies' man back in my time-"

They were all bickering like kids when the doorbell rang again.

"Is it her again?" Junho asked excitedly. "Can we meet her this time?"

"No!" Yoonmin yelled at them. "Stay away!"

He went on to open the door but it was not Soobin. It was Jina.

"Sis!" he exclaimed, stepping aside to let her in. "What brings you here?"

But Jina rushed to her grandfather.
