🕑 Added 2022-06-04 20:13:56 +0000 UTC"Excuse me ladies, do you want me to bring you a couple of menus?" the waiter asked the two headed mutant that had just sat down at one of his tables. He’d seen mutants before but one with two heads, four arms, and six breasts wasn’t one he’d come across before.
Both of her heads blinked in amazement, snapping out of her reverie. “Huh? What, huh… no, I'm just one person,” said one of her heads. There was a sadness to her voice.
"Yeah… that… one person," the other awkwardly reaffirmed. She folded two of her three fingered hands in her lap and looked down, her hair falling around each of the golden horns atop her heads. There was one on each head and the waiter couldn’t help eyeing them a bit.
“Ok, excuse me if I got confused,” said the waiter politely. “Do you want to see the menu, or do you already know what you want to order?”
“An espresso,” said one head.
“An iced coffee,” said the other at the same time.
Their heads looked at each other in confusion and then one of them stated, “Get me an espresso and an iced coffee. I want to try both, you know… benefits of having two heads,” she said as the other head laughed uncomfortably.
The waiter was a little surprised, but he didn't want to upset his customer. He wrote the order on his notepad and went to prepare it.
The two-headed girl placed a hand on each of her faces as she sighed deeply.
“We definitely screwed it up,” one of her heads said.
"There was no way we could’ve known this would happen," said the other.
“Of course, we knew. Remember I looked it up on the internet: 'the dangers of desynchronizing heads with alternating naps.'"
Athena's other head just bit her lip. She knew that her other self was right. After all, until a few weeks ago they were very clear that they were one person. A sexy mutant mother, with a satisfied husband and two beautiful children. However, the habit of taking naps putting only one head to sleep was throwing her mind out of sync. The first signs of this were simple choices in the supermarket, where she simultaneously took two different brands. Then with television channels, music on her cell phone, small indecisions about what clothes to wear every day. Nothing very serious, but each time she kept quiet about it. Both of her heads looked uncomfortable, but neither wanted to acknowledge that they were developing different trains of thoughts.
However, today is the day she was attending her first job interview since becoming a mother. One of the tests she had to take was the infamous "Occupational Test for Individuals with More Than One Brain," also called the "Mordrake Test." A couple of years ago, a two-headed girl sued her company claiming that she had developed independent identities and that her employers forced them to work with a single salary and contract. Upon winning the lawsuit, they had to pay her a juicy compensation. Although this case helped a lot to regulate the work of conjoined girls, unfortunately this milestone also seriously complicated the chances of getting work for girls with multiple heads.
"If we had talked about our problem before we could have prepared ourselves better for that damn exam", said one of her sorrowful heads. "I'm a fool"
"Hey, if you call yourself a fool, that applies to me too," her other head said. "We're going to be fine, especially now that there are two of us."
They stared at each other for a few seconds, until they brought their lips closer and gave each other a deep kiss that left them both breathless.
"Wow… I do kiss well, don’t I?"
“Oh, without a doubt.”
Just then the waiter brought their order. While one of her heads enjoyed sipping her espresso, the other thoughtfully interrupted her.
"So, now… who will continue to be Athena?"
"What?" said the other head, putting aside her coffee. "I am Athena... well, I guess you think the same about yourself."
“Yeah, but do we both have to change names? We share the same body and same memories. It sounds silly that only one keeps the name."
“Fair, we are still both Athena.”
“That makes me feel better. Do you think the kids will notice?”
“Of course not, they’re barely two years old. At most they’ll see that we don’t agree but they won’t have any memory of it when they get older.’
"Our lucky children will now have two mothers."
“And how do you think Peter will take it?” said one of her heads. They both reclined and looked at the ceiling a little thoughtfully.
"He loves us. When I mutated for the first time, he was very understanding.”
“And it wasn’t a small mutation either!”
“Well, he came out on top.”
"Without a doubt, we are hot."
Both heads laughed in unison after that sentence.
"What are you laughing at, love?"
The two Athenas looked ahead in horror as they saw Peter standing in front of their table.
“Pe-Peter,” they both said at the same time. Then with a brief exchange of knowing glances, the right head began to speak while the other fell silent. “What a surprise love. What are you doing here?"
“I spend a lot of time outside this cafe. I was walking outside on my lunch break when I saw you inside and thought I’d stop by to see you. You're pretty notorious… in a good way,” Peter clarified. He sat down at the table and ordered a coffee. "And tell me, how did you do in the selection exam?"
The two Athenas almost choked at the same time. Their heads looked at each other nervously for a second before they responded at the same time.
"I didn't get the job..."
"They'll call me later..."
Both of them froze at the mistake they had made. Peter put his coffee aside looking at them understandingly.
"You had, I mean… you both had timing problems, right?"
The two Athenas looked at him in shock.
"Y-you already knew?!?!" they said in unison.
“The last few weeks my wife has been acting weird. I saw how you were very indecisive, about everything. In fact, the other day I saw you try to run in two opposite directions. The fall was spectacular.”
“And… and what do you think?” said one of them.
“Both of us feel like Athena. We want to keep a name and an identity,” said the other.
“Hey, I just want you to be happy. Although I confess that I never thought that one day I would have two wives,” said Peter with a laugh.
"Well, I think we will have to continue working remotely," said one of them.
“That doesn't bother me, so we can continue to care for the children as they grow up,” said the other head.
“And now they have two mothers. They should be thankful," the first head said. "Even though their future spouses will have two mothers-in-law, which will be fun."
"I'll admit, though you've had two heads for quite a while now, realizing it's two people now is a bit disconcerting… and oddly sexy," Peter said as he looked at them.
"Sexy? Maybe you have a weakness for the twins,” said one of the Athenas.
“Amazon twins and conjoined,” added the other. “What a collection of fetishes sir.”
“I plead guilty,” Peter said. The Athenas stood up and hugged him affectionately from behind, while each one whispered in his ears.
“Tonight, once the kids are in bed, we are going to have a competition.”
“We will see which of the two is better in bed.”
Peter's eyes widened in surprise and then smiled with satisfaction. His new life with two wives had just begun.

Wasn't expecting to see Athena again. A pleasant surprise. I hope she manages to get a job she wants
