Part I.

Curtains open.

Rainbow Hill’s property assets are on stage, entering from the right side from the public perspective.

Sunny and Misty are hanging around the living room. Sunny is by the window and Misty is at the table. Sunny is wearing bright yellow clothes, while Misty is wearing blue-grayish clothes.

Mister Cloud shouts from out of the stage: Rainn! Rainn! C’mon boy, no need to be shy! They are waiting for us!

Sunny is excited from hearing it: Misty! Dad is coming!

Misty stops reading the book: I see… I hope he didn’t forget to bring my souvenirs this time.

Sunny: Oh Misty! C’mon! Someone’s coming along with him! I wonder who they are…

Misty: Knowing him, it’s probably some rich man that he must show his family just to make more money. Typical.

Sunny: No, Misty! It looks like… A boy?

Misty rushes to the window: A boy? Where? How old is he?

Sunny: I knew you would like to know!

Misty: Don’t put your expectations so high up, little brother. He could be just someone our age, the son of one of Dad’s business partners who may be in need of company. Oh, the perfect fiancé for me!

Sunny: Again with this ‘little brother’, sister? (Sunny mocks her) We are twins!

Misty: I was born first!

Sunny: Just for a few seconds!

Misty: Sunny, Sunny… It doesn’t matter if you win by a mile or by an inch. A win is a win!

Sunny: Urgh… Whatever! (Sunny looks back at the window) Oh, noes… Oh no no no no no! It can’t be! No… (Sunny starts walking around worried about something)

Misty: Oh my! Isn’t he kinda cute? I bet he must be quite rich!

Sunny: Oh, Misty! Why are you always thinking about money? Don’t you think about anything else?

Misty: Don’t be silly, Sunny, it’s obvious I can think about something else. But maybe I can have some fun trying to find out what he can buy for me in the meantime, hah!

Sunny: Whatever. I will never understand what’s so great about your little ‘souvenirs’. You never use them anyway!

Misty: It’s not about how much they are useful, silly. It’s about the story behind them! Urgh… You are so young you wouldn’t know the difference!

Sunny: You are only older by seconds! Seconds! How can you be so much wiser than I am by counting a few seconds?! It’s not like the whole world would change in a few seconds!

Mister Cloud is by the door: Kids! I’m home! Open the door!

Misty: Oh, it’s dad, finally! (Misty straights up in front of the door) Going, dad!

Sunny feels his heart stop on the other side of the living room: Oh noes, what should I do?!

Mister Cloud enters. He’s wearing common work clothes, like a suit, hat, coat and fancy pants. He can also be carrying a walking stick and a briefcase. He leaves them by the door close to a hanger. He has his coat in his hands.

Mister Cloud: Misty… (Sunny almost escapes, but it’s seen by his father) Sunny! (He waves to make him come closer) I would like you two to meet someone… Rainn, come here!

Rainn enters the scene. He’s wearing dark clothes. His hair is long enough to cover his eyes. He’s shy and a person of few words.

Mister Cloud: This is Rainn. He’s going to live with us from now on. Rainn, this is my daughter, Misty…

Misty: I’m delighted to meet you. (Misty makes a formal reverence)

Rainn: Hi… (He quickly put his hand up)

Mister Cloud: And this is my son, Sunny!

Sunny is feeling shocked, holding his heart with his left hand. Sounds of a heart beating can be heard. Sunny is nervous and awkwardly puts his right hand up for a handshake.

Sunny: H… H… (But words don’t come out of his mouth)

Misty whispers: What’s going on with you today? It’s too out of character for you to behave like this! (She nudges Sunny with her elbow)

Sunny suddenly shouts: I LIKE YOU!!!

Rainn smiles and hides a giggle.

Misty: What’s wrong with you?

Sunny holds his mouth with both hands not believing what he just said.

Rainn still smiles: I like you too.

Mister Cloud doesn’t understand a thing: Oh well, I like you are getting along so well already! (He said proudly despite the confusion) Rainn is the son of a dear friend of mine, so treat him as if you were his brother. I hope that is okay with you two.

Both twins: BROTHER?!

Misty: But Dad! I was hoping you would bring home someone to marry me!

Mister Cloud goes to the right side of the house, getting out of stage, as if he were going to the kitchen.

Mister Cloud: Misty, my darling, you know too well, that if I were to bring you someone like that I would warn you in advance, and, not only that, you know my business partners don’t have a son your age!

Misty follows Mister Cloud: But dad! I don’t mind about their age! Dad? Dad!

Misty leaves the scene.

Rainn and Sunny are still staring at each other. Sunny still holding his mouth. Rainn is getting anxious about the situation.

Rainn: So… nice home!

Sunny still stares at Rainn but this time he slowly moves one hand with the index finger up.

Sunny: Just give me a moment.

Rainn: Okay. I really hope you like me.

Sunny heart almost stops. His mouth gaps. He holds his heart with both hands and moves his head slowly to the audience, looking down. Eyes wide open.

Sunny: I. Need. Some. Air.

Sunny leaves the stage, going to his bedroom as quickly as possible. He may have stumbled a few times in the process.

Rainn: It’s okay! I… I can see the house myself! (Sunny is out of stage) I… really hope you can like me, Sunny boy. I really do.

Lights fade out.
