Chapter 27: Lie Detector

                                    

                                          
Tokyo walked over next to Nairobi. "Let's see his father skills." She grinned.
Berlin had his hands in his pockets, walking over to Seoul and the twins. "Listen, I wasn't hurting mamá." He knelt down and rubbed their backs.
"Why did you put your hand on her throat?!" They turned to face him, crossing their arms, looking angrily at him. "And she was screaming."
And for the two girls, Nairobi and Tokyo tried not to laugh, as they knew exactly what had actually happened.
"There's different kinds of ways of playing, like playing with toys like you two, but your mamá and I play differently. You'll understand when you get older." Berlin tried to find excuses.
"So... you didn't hurt mamá?" They asked.
"No, I didn't. Ask mamá."
"Did he hurt you?" Vienna asked.
"No, sweetie. He didn't hurt me, and never will." She replied.
"Family huggies!" Vienna giggled. 
"Alright." Berlin and Seoul locked the two in their arms, hugging each other.
"Well, you two go play with your toys." Berlin said.
"Okay." The two answered.
"Do you two have any favourite aunties?" Tokyo asked.
"Uh, no?" The two simply answered with an attitude then walked away to play.
"Oh, did you guys see that?" Seoul pointed at everyone back and forth.
"The attitude they have." Nairobi chuckled.
"I wonder where they got that attitude from." Seoul said. "They definitely didn't get that from me." She looked at Berlin, as she was joking.
"Don't look at me like that, they did not get that from me. You were the one who raised them while I was gone." He put his hands in his pockets.
"Yes, for three years! I was a single mother." She rolled her eyes.
Tokyo and Nairobi just looked at each other, having a bad feeling that they might start an argument.
"Well, Tokyo you and Berlin go outside and get ready for the party. And for you Seoul, you are coming with me." Nairobi pulled her arm. "Let's get you dressed up, honey."
"Whatever." Seoul crossed her arms.
"You guys can't argue, when we're so close to the day of the heist, remember what happened before we robbed the Mint?" Nairobi raised her eyebrow.
"First of all we weren't arguing-"
"Mhm, yeah right." Nairobi raised her eyebrow.
"Fuck it. Anyways, I do remember, Nairobi. We broke up but past is the past, gotta accept it."
"You're right." Nairobi chuckled. "Do you know what to wear?"
"Yes. I have everything planned out, I'm not going all out because it's only the gang."
"So, not even for Berlin?" She started smirking at Seoul.
"I guess a little, I'm only going to wear a simple black dress though, maybe some blush." She opened the door to her bedroom and walked right away to make the bed again.
Nairobi walked inside and looked around. "Oh wow... pillows on the floor, the sheets messy and the quilt is just everywhere. I understand how the kids got traumatised." She commented.
"Can we not talk about the twins when they saw Berlin and I, you know...."
"Oh, having sex, got it." Nairobi smiled mischievously.
