(EP-93.1) My Home #4
093 – My Warm Home #4
Mirna Draco was worried.
She had a twin sister whom, unlike other sisters, she shared one body with.
Yes, two consciousnesses in one body.
This was by no means ordinary.
Some said this was a miracle sent by God, but their father, Aleister, wanted to hide it.
When they were young, Mirna and Narmi didn’t know why they had to hide it, but as they got older, they naturally came to understand one thing.
Those that were unusual would be ostracized by society.
Once rumors of the sisters’ bizarre constitution spreaded, words would come flying like daggers and stabbing them both.
In fact, the reaction of those who found out about their special constitution was enough evidence.
━Two people in one body? Isn’t it some kind of curse?
━No matter how religious your family is, you still end up tampering with the dead. It must be a punishment from God!
━Shhh, they can hear you…
Gossip such as these were all over the place-.
━Can they talk to each other then? How does sharing a body work?
━I’m planning on writing a thesis about people with different personalities. Can I interview you-.
There were also people who approached them purely for their own interests.
Eventually, the sisters fully closed off everything about their constitution.
Naturally, it made the existence of Narmi Draco, who wasn’t the direct controller of the body, to be erased like a shadow. Fortunately, both sisters got along very well.
In the first place, was it even possible for them to be on bad terms since they were in the same body?
Also, back when the Draco Family members started dying from an unknown disease, the sisters were able to rely on each other and strengthened one another’s heart.
━Narmi, let’s revive the Draco Family together.
━Yes!
However, the sisters soon met a hurdle. In order to revive the Draco Family, they would need the help of a third party.
A son-in-law of the Draco Family, in other words, a husband…
God had designed the world for men and women to meet, mate and thrive.
Unlike other ordinary girls, it was more than twice as difficult for Mirna and Narmi to find a life partner.
It was not easy to find a man who would like both of them and treated them without discrimination.
━Miss Draco. I am Chris, the second son of Marquis Balhazak. Could you spare me some of your time….
━I am Mitahari, the eldest son of Duke Warkir….
Of course, as the Young Ladies of the Draco Family with flower-like beauty, there were quite a lot of men eager to court them.
The only problem was that the men they met had a greed and desire for the Draco Family that was far greater than that of themselves…
━How much is the Draco Family worth?
━Do you own an elephant?
The sisters thought that the high aristocratic children wouldn’t think anything of the Draco Family’s property since they already ‘have it all’. But they were wrong.
On the contrary, the higher their status, the more they viewed the Draco Twins as a tool for power and status…
But, it was also simply impossible to lower their standards to non-nobles who had no potential.
After all, most commoners did not even have the most basic of education.
Just as Mirna was feeling depressed and bleak about the future of the family’s revival, she found a useful gemstone.
━Nice to meet you, Lady Mirna. I’m-.
And his name was Theo Gospel.
Judging by the fact that he had the last name of Gospel, he was probably an orphan with no family.
However, he was a bizarre existence rumored to be tightly holding Queen Aira on a leash.
Yet, when Mirna met him, he was more thoughtful and gentle than most nobles. He was nothing like the ugly pig that those rumors were painting him to be.
Most of all, he was ‘infatuated’ with Mirna.
As to how committed the fellow could be, he fought Professor Balan who was a near-Rank 5 Witch without hesitation for her.
If she were to give him a score, you could say he passed by a hair’s breadth.
But Mirna was a little nervous about how he would react knowing about her constitution.
Wait, no, nervous? Why would she be nervous?
Mirna refused to admit that she was nervous because of an orphaned commoner.
It was said that the Draco Family were always proud, even when faced with Demon King Solomon.
But, it couldn’t be helped…
Meanwhile, Theo Gospel’s reaction was neither contempt nor curiosity. It was just… nothing. Even after seeing her peculiar constitution, he had no reaction at all.
All he said was that the meat was delicious.
“So, what do you think?”
Thus, Mirna asked again.
She hated doing that because it seemed like she was being impatient, but she was introducing her sister, Narmi, who could be said to be part of her innermost and vulnerable feelings.
Since Theo was the first man she had ever done this to, Mirna herself couldn’t tell what was right or wrong.
“Hurry up, tell me, Theo Gospel!”
Seeing that Mirna was getting restless, Narmi stepped in.
ㅡUnni, let’s talk first!
* * *
“What was that?”
I looked at Mirna’s empty seat and touched my bewildered face.
I really needed to wipe the saliva that had splashed on my face when she was shouting…
Anyway, Mirna took a hand mirror and hurriedly left the room.
Though, her absence was a good thing for me as well.
With this, I could arrange my course of action.
This dinner seemed to be a very important moment, and it was fairly certain that her future behavior and our relationship would change depending on how I acted here.
In the first place, I never expected Mirna to show that much emotion…
The relationship between the two sisters seemed to be more emotionally connected than I thought.
Well, they only got each other in this world.
They were also inseparable.
They must have suffered a lot because of their unusual situation. People probably looked at them with strange and judging eyes.
Perhaps, there was an insecurity hidden beneath.
But to me, their constitution was special, but not weird.
I didn’t know what it would be like in this world where psychiatry was not developed, but to me, dual personality and dissociative identity disorder were unfamiliar but not unheard of. I just never got to meet one.
Of course, their condition was different from dual personality or dissociative identity disorder, since they really were two souls put into one vessel.
What I was trying to say was that, it was an interesting concept.
“I am not in a position to call anyone weird anyway.”
Because, looking at the facts, I was experiencing something far more bizarre than them after all.
