Manan stood near a large window of his chamber, gazing outside with a faint smile on his lips. What he had learned today through Dhani’s emotions filled him with joy. But he wished to keep it secret that only he could feel Dhani’s feelings. He did not want to reveal to anyone about such a unique bond. Dhani felt the same, for if the other four came to know, it might make them feel sad.

He thought to himself that if he wanted to keep this unique connection hidden, he would have to refrain from expressing Dhani’s emotions before others. But hiding it from Aanan would be impossible. One part of him wanted to keep it a secret from him, but the other whispered that he should hide nothing from his twin. The twins had never hidden anything from each other, and neither liked to keep secrets from each other. They knew one another as if they were reflections in the same mirror. Aanan could catch his lie even before he spoke it.
