Waking up the rest of the girls.

Allison peaked through the peephole and was surprised to see both Hane and Iris standing in front of her door. She panicked and wondered if she was going to be scolded by Jonathan's mother for her mocking impersonation.

"Good morning, auntie," she greeted with a smile after opening her door, pulling her robe tighter around herself. "Morning, Hane."

"Good morning, Allison, how was your sleep last night?" Iris politely asked.

"Great!" Allison lied, not wanting to reveal that she puked at least once in the wastebasket that Jonathan had left next to her bed. "Is there something I can help you with?"

"We just want to make sure everyone is up and ready for breakfast at the restaurant downstairs at seven thirty," Hane answered.

"Yes, I want to see you girls one last time," Iris answered.

"Sure, just let me take a quick shower and I'll see you downstairs in a bit!" Allison said, waving before closing the door. She let out a sigh of relief as she head to the bathroom.

"Did she drink a lot last night?" Iris asked Hane while they walked over to the next door.

The neuroscientist paused for a moment to select the proper words that would not get Allison into trouble. "We had suggested she limit herself..."

"Jonathan did not stop her from drinking too much?" Iris grumbled while thinking, She is not a good candidate for a wife for Jonathan! Blonde hair!

"His job wasn't to babysit twelve women. We are all adults who should be mature enough to know their limits," Hane explained while Jonathan's mother knocked on the door. "Besides, the bartender did make sure to cut us off though."

"Wut?" Zoe yelped, suddenly bolting upright in bed. When she finally realized someone was at the door when there was another knock, she staggered out of bed, grabbing her bathrobe after realizing she was not wearing anything other than her bikini, and trotted to the door. She tippy-toed to look through the peephole and opened the door before Iris could knock again.

"Am I in trouble?" Zoe blurted out nervously.

"Good morning, Zoe," Hane smiled. "No, you're not in trouble."

"How are you feeling?" Iris asked with concern in a motherly tone. "I hope you did not drink too much or vomit."

"No hangover or puking," the young computer engineered replied with a big yawn. "I'm just groggy..."

"We are having breakfast downstairs in half an hour," Iris stated. "I want to see you girls one last time so you should get dressed."

Zoe nodded. "Yes, auntie."

Iris waited for the door to close before whispering to Hane, "She is a good and very smart girl."

"Aren't we all?" Hane smirked while they walked towards the next door.

"Yes but I think she is a bit young and naive," Iris added. "Please look after her."

"Yes, auntie," Hane nodded. "She's the little sister to us all."

"Jou sahn, auntie," Leah greeted the two women as she answered the door. "Good morning, Hane."

"Jou sahn," Iris smiled. "How was your sleep?"

"I slept like a baby," the young aerospace engineer replied.

"I hope not waking up every two hours to feed!" Iris joked.

For a moment Leah stared at her, not understanding the humor, but then simply smiled and nodded politely.

"We are just making sure all of the girls are awake and ready to have breakfast downstairs in about half an hour," Hane added.

"Yes, thank you. I'm starving," Leah smiled. "I'll get changed and meet you at the restaurant in a bit."

"Wonderful," Iris smiled and waved as Leah closed the door.

"She is a very good girl," Iris noted. "Please look after her."

"She's an adult, auntie, and just a few years younger than me," Hane noted.

"But you more mature!" Iris retorted. "... and a doctor!"

"Engineering is a very noteworthy profession as well, auntie," Hane smiled politely as she knocked on the next door.

As much as Iris wanted to remark her ranking of various professions she (and many East Asian parents) held in high regard (engineers were on the top of her list but not as high as medical doctors due to her bias with her son being an emergency physician), Iris said nothing in case Natalie would hear.

"Good morning, auntie and Hane," the young electrical engineer chirped after opening her door. "Is something wrong?"

"Nothing is wrong," Iris smiled. "We just wanted to make sure you are awake. I want to see you one last time at the restaurant downstairs for breakfast."

"Okay, just let me get dressed and I'll see you downstairs!" Natalie smiled and gave a slight bow before closing her door.

"She's an engineer as well," Hane noted with a smirk while they headed to the next suite.

"Still a very good profession," Iris nodded and knocked on the door. She thought she heard voices and was about to knock again when the door suddenly swung open to reveal Eva and Kaylee, both wearing bathrobes.

"Good morning, auntie!" the two girls greeted Jonathan's mother with nervous smiles while glancing over at Hane.

"Jou sahn," Iris said, eyeing them suspiciously. "Please get dressed, siu ze. We will have breakfast at the restaurant downstairs."

"Yes, auntie," the girls replied in unison, bowing slightly before closing the door behind them.

Eva peeked through the peep hole, watching Iris and Hane walk towards one of the triplet's room across the hall. "Do you think she suspects something happened between us?"

"Something kinky?" Kaylee giggled, giving Eva a playful slap on the ass.

"You should go change," the biological engineer suggested.

"Fine..." the dietitian sighed. She gave Eva a quick kiss before opening the door to quietly slip by behind Iris and Hane to head back to her own suite.

Hane was about to knock again when one of the triplets opened the door from another suite.

"Oh! Hi, Hane," Crystal chirped. "Good morning, Mrs. Lee. You were looking for Amber?"

"Yes," Iris replied.

"She's here inside with Jade," Crystal stated as her sisters joined her at the doorway. "Is something wrong?"

"Oh, nothing is wrong," Iris said. "We just wanted to make sure you girls are awake and ready for breakfast downstairs. I want to see all of you before you leave."

"Thank you, Mrs. Lee!" Crystal smiled with a slight bow. "We'll change right now!"

"Okay, see you downstairs!" Iris smiled back. She walked down the hall with Hane towards the elevators. "How are the triplets?"

"A handful," Hane giggled as she pressed the elevator button, "but they're good girls."

"Please watch over them," Iris whispered, looking back down the hall towards the sisters' suites.

"I don't think they need me to babysit them."

"It is not them I worry about..."

"Oh?" Hane wondered as the elevator bell dinged.
