Chapter 22 – Date With the Twins

'A cosplay... Well, that sounds like a good excuse. I just need to take care of my face and style my hair to match the appearance they usually see. And a new pair of clothes.'

With a plan in mind, he went home.

That night, he slept while thinking about the twins.

The next day, he picked up Amy and Mary from their apartment.

"Morning~"

"Hello~"

The twins greeted him. They were wearing summer dress with thin white coat and carried a small bag. Both of them were smiling and their eyes were sparkling.

"You two look lovely today."

He complimented them.

"Hehe, thank you, James. You also look good."

"Yes~ You're handsome, James. Your summer jacket looks nice on you."

The twins giggled. They grabbed his arms and looked at his face.

"Your face looks a little bit different. Is it just me?"

"Yeah, it looks like he became more handsome and manly than before. I think his cheekbones are sharper now."

Amy and Mary stared at his face. They looked at him closely.

Tom had used to change his facial structure to that of James. His hair was styled, and his clothes were neat. However, he slightly changed his face to resemble his real one a little bit.

It was a plan for a big reveal.

'Maybe they noticed it because I changed the shape of my jaw and chin?'

He didn't think that it was possible for them to notice the change in the size of his face, but he was wrong. Still, he was still recognized and not questioned.

"I think you're right. It's not much, but I feel like he is more manly now."

Tom smiled and grabbed their hands.

"Thanks. Come on, let's go."

"Where are we going? You never told us."

"You just told us to bring a swimsuit and wear something casual."

"Where else?" He asked them with a smile. "We're going to an amusement park. There is a swimming pool there and I'd like to try it. I have bought the bus ticket for us, so don't worry."

The twins' eyes sparkled.

"Amusement park!"

"Yay~"

They cheered. They couldn't wait to go there.

"Don't worry, it's still early. We can have some fun and try all the rides there."

Tom led the girls to the bus stop. He showed them the ticket.

"I've also brought snacks and drinks. Let's buy lunch after we arrive at the park."

"Sounds good. Thank you for the ticket, James."

"Yeah~ Thank you~"

The girls smiled at him. They leaned closer and kissed his cheeks. Tom blushed a little bit and scratched his chin.

Some people in the bus stop looked at them. Younger men and women nearby muttered among each other while their eyes were focused on the trio.

Tom coughed and grabbed their hands. He sat on the bench with them. Amy and Mary were always so clingy. They always touched and held him whenever they had the chance.

It didn't take long for the bus to arrive. They got on and it left soon.

In their city, the Amusement Park was the one most popular in the area. Everyone wanted to go there, even foreigners.

Weekend was especially packed with families, teenagers and young adults. People would come here and have fun. Some would leave satisfied and refreshed. Others would leave exhausted, but content.

Some couples would hold hands and spend a wonderful day with their significant others.

Among them, Tom and the twins still stood out. The combination of a handsome guy and cute twins, one with a big rack while the other with an hourglass figure and seductive body would gather attention from the people in the park.

But instead of holding hands, the guy would be sandwiched between the two girls. They would be all touchy and grabby. Their breasts were even pressed against him, squishing his side while their hips rubbed against him.

All the time.

If it wasn't because Tom would stay calm and didn't mind it, his pants would probably be turned into a tent already.

"James, are you okay? Your face looks a bit red."

"You don't look so good. Is there anything bothering you?"

Amy asked. She and Mary looked at him. Their smirks gave them away.

'Damn it!'

"I'm fine, guys. Don't worry about me. The weather has been quite hot lately. Let's get in that Ferris Wheel before I start to boil inside this thick coat."

"Oopsie~ My bad~"

"My bad, James~"

They were purposefully teasing him.

The ride on the Ferris Wheel was actually quite tame. They just leaned against him and asked questions. About him, his childhood, about college, and the life he experienced.

It was a chance for him to mix his lie and the truth to gradually reveal who he actually was. After all, he wanted his relationships to have foundations. A real one without any secrets hidden and covered beneath the truth.

"When I met you girls, that was actually my second time trying to style myself to be better. On campus, I never styled myself, so my appearance wasn't that nice. Just an average guy with an average hairstyle."

Tom tried to answer their questions as honestly as possible. This way, his lies would have reasons. Reasons he would make sure were logical. He only hid the 'I changed my appearance using a skill' part.

"Really? I can't imagine it, James."

Amy was surprised by his statement.

"You've always had a really good look, you know. All cool and charming and whatnot." Mary agreed.

"Haha, of course. In fact, I was watching your practice with the cheerleader club a few days ago. You both look awesome."

"Well... There was nothing special."

Mary giggled.

"Yeah... It was just a bunch of girls cheering for the boys. Not much, right?" Amy said. "But why didn't you call for us? You should've stopped by."

"Yeah! That would be nice~"

"Of course. However, I was only free for a short time before going somewhere, so I couldn't hang around for that long. And..."

'I am Tom and you girls aren't going to believe me.'

"Wait until the summer vacation, okay? I will meet you girls in my average look without any style. Also... I wasn't really called James on campus, that is."

The twins raised their eyebrows. They looked at him as the ride neared the ground.

"What should we call you then?" Amy asked.

Tom smiled and waited for the door to open.

"I will tell you at that time. James was... my old family name before my father remarried. So it's not a fake name. I just used it because I felt more comfortable."

"I see." The girls smiled. They exited the wheel.

Their expressions were hard to read.

Tom hoped that everything wouldn't change after his little reveal. He didn't lie about his name either.

'I am just explaining the truth without revealing everything. I am not a genius who can use a fake name on the spot or react without a beat when called using a fake name.'

The day in the amusement park was fun. They went around and tried a lot of the attractions in the place. He spent a large amount of money to buy all sorts of themed meals and merchandise for the girls, and gave them a lot of joy and experience.

When the sun was about to set, he invited them for a swim. This theme park was famous for their rooftop swimming pool where they could watch the sunset in a modern and classy way.

It had a calming ambiance with lounge chairs all over the place and several giant pools of warm water to relax after a long day of touring the amusement park.

Under the orange sky and reddish sunlight, the twins revealed their swimsuits to Tom.
