Another Life, Another Me

Special: Mercy to the Twins (Part 2)

They felt empty on the inside.

"Ugh...watching these ugly brats smile is so gross. Gross. Disgusting." the maid shuddered inside her head.

"Of course. Please rest well tonight, young masters," the maid smiled as she left their room and closed the door behind her.

The maid's footsteps became quieter and quieter the farther she walked away from the room.

And all the boys could do was to blankly stare at the closed door in front of them.

Then, another round of silence filled the room as no one said a word.

What was there to say?

"...Let me teach you d--kheads something new. That maid right there is what I like to call a f--king b-tch. Repeat after me, kids: f--king b-tch," Sin said as he peaked his head out from below the twins' bed.

"...What is...a f--king b-tch?" the boys asked blankly.

"Well...a good example of a f--king b-tch would be...that maid. I'll teach you more terms the older you d--kheads get," Sin chuckled.

"Okay...then..." the boys nodded.

But the boys weren't really paying attention to what Sin was saying.

Their minds felt lost in a storm of emotions they couldn't understand.

Sadness?

Disappointment?

Regret?

What were they supposed to do now?

"That f--king b-tch thinks she can murder you whenever she f--king wants...She should know her f--king place," Sin spat.

The boys stared at the bear with wide eyes as they realized something that they should have realized sooner.

"...You...could read her mind...too?" the boys said almost monotonously.

Of course, the maid had never announced her plans verbally to the twins.

The only way that the twins were able to notice was because they could read minds.

But...if Sin was also able to figure out her plans...then that could only mean...

"Pfft. Of course I f--king can. Anything you f--king d--kheads can do...I can do twenty times better," Sin smirked as he stood up from the ground with his arms crossed.

Never had the boys ever encountered someone who could use telepathy like them.

It was as if there was someone else in the world who could understand them.

"Then...does that mean you...can read our minds...too?" the twins asked.

"Uh...Well...no. But I wouldn't f--king want to. There's probably too much sh-t in your minds for me to want to peek inside anyway," Sin rolled his eyes as he tried to come up with an excuse.

"..." the twins remained silent.

They didn't know what to say.

There was someone else who could read minds just like them!

...Didn't that mean that they were normal?

That...they weren't weird?

There was a teddy bear that could do exactly what they could do.

They weren't all alone.

...Right?

"I don't know what you two are thinking, but we need to get out of here before that f--king b-tch runs her d-mn knife through your necks," Sin sighed as he sat back down on the ground to contemplate what they should do.
