Victoria Hawthorne: whispering, eyes wide Did you hear what I found out? Twins, can you believe it?
I give her a tight hug oh my god! That's amazing! Are they... alive?
Victoria hugs you back, her voice quivering slightly Yes... they're alive. And get this - my adoptive parents knew about it all along! They've been keeping it a secret from me for years.
"Yeah, but how do we feel about it?"
Victoria takes a deep breath, her expression thoughtful
To be honest... it's a lot to process. I mean, finding out your biological parents are twins? It's like discovering a secret part of your identity that you never knew existed. Part of me is curious, and another part feels... a bit overwhelmed.
She looks at you, her eyes searching for reassurance.
I'm shocked That's insane! What else did you find out?
She nods, her eyes still wide I know right? And that's not all. Apparently they gave me up for adoption when I was a baby. Can you imagine how difficult it must have been for them?
I look over to her wow that’s crazy but also not surprising coming from this place
looks around the dark hallway I know, right? It’s like something straight out of a gothic novel. I just can’t believe it… twins.
shivers slightly This place gives me the creeps sometimes…
I smile warmly. You look beautiful today, Vicky. I say lovingly.
Vicky blushes slightly at your compliment, feeling her heart skip a beat. She smiles warmly back at you.
Thank you, SingShat. That means a lot coming from you.
She takes a step closer to you.
I whisper back wait...does this mean our parents were dating??
whispering back, eyes wide I know! It's so bizarre to think about. Imagine them dating...and having me...it's mind-blowing.
i look over at her, my face pale “twins? what do you mean?”
her voice trembles slightly, as she continues in a hushed tone I mean... my biological parents are twins. My adoptive parents told me about them today.
she looks at you intently, seeking reassurance
I wrap my arms around her so how do we feel about this
She leans into your embrace, her body trembling slightly.
I don't know how to feel about this... It's a lot to take in. Part of me is curious and excited, but another part is scared and confused.
I am leaning against the wall listening to music on my headphones.
Victoria notices you, standing against the wall with headphones on. She takes a deep breath and decides to approach you, her heart pounding with anticipation.
approaching slowly Hey... can I talk to you for a moment?
Twins? That's wild, Vicky. How did you find out?
Victoria nods, her voice still filled with disbelief. I found a hidden diary in the attic. It belonged to my biological mother.
She looks at you, her eyes wide. It's all in there. How they had me, why they gave me up for adoption...
a maid runs past us screaming about finding bodies all over the first floor
Victoria's eyes widen in shock as she turns to watch the maid run past
What on earth is going on? Why are there bodies in the first floor? Who could have done this?
