The next morning, James woke up on the couch. He shook his hair, stretched his arms and sat up. The memories slowly returned to him, he had brought a mutant to his house the day before. He wondered if Melany would still be sleeping in the bed.
James got up; adjusting his clothes and moves his left arm while holding the shoulder with his right hand. "Oof… sleeping on the sofa is painful indeed," he thought, but immediately remembered Melany's smiles as she knew that she would sleep in a bed after so long and he smiled "On second thought, it's not that bad..."
Walking slowly into the bedroom and being careful of not waking her up James approached the bed, finding Melany sound asleep. Covered up to her necks in the sheets, with one of her arms exposed and her heads resting against each other. From this perspective, it seems as if she was two twin sisters sleeping embraced. "She is definitely a very rare mutant to see" James smiled and slowly moved Melany's arm, tucking it inside the sheets again and covering it properly.
James looked at his watch and was surprised at how late it was. He would not have time for breakfast and he have to hurry to go to work. He turned to go to the bathroom and saw the blouse Melany was wearing the night before lying on the chair.
He turned his head and looked at Melany, who was still sleeping. He remembered the lack of clothing on Melany’s arm and shoulder when he covered it seconds before "Is... is she naked?!" his face turned red as a tomato while his mind played dirty games to him. Imagining that the sheets were not there while he remembered the amount of breasts of the girl. He shook his head trying to think in something else "Okay, yes... work" he walked out of the room heading to the bathroom and getting ready to leave, but not before taking a second to write a note to Melany with instructions and leaving it on the dining room table.
Minutes later, James arrives at the branch of Hydra Project, a video game design and programming company well known worldwide, where he has a programmer position, recognized as one of the best despite the fact that he denies it. Upon arrival his coworkers welcomed him while he sat in his cubicle to work, being interrupted an hour later by his partner Tom, who works in the cubicle next to him.
"Hey, what happened at the house the other day? I saw on the news that a large section collapsed, you were already gone, right? ” Tom asks curiously.
"Uh... something like that, I... I was..." James does not know what to answer, looking at his monitor as if he was hiding something. Tom immediately realize about it, staring at him with a suspicious face.
"I was... still in the mansion but not in the part that collapsed, the storm was too strong... and I had to go home with no umbrella because certain FRIENDS took the van!" James said looking at him with disappointment.
Tom changed his expression of doubt to a nervous smile "Oh... I, uh... it was Chuck's idea!" He said trying to find an excuse. James just shook his head and in a more joking tone said “And what was the reason? You were scared?"
Tom's eyes widened “No! Not at all, it was late and we did not want... James? Are you listening to me?" James was distracted, looking off to the side. Observing a very pretty girl who entered the office, with a long blonde hair and a rather provocative uniform. Tom sighs and waits until James comes out of his trance.
"Sorry, what were you saying?" James asks coming back to reality.
"Will you ever tell Caroline how you feel?"
"I don't think so. I don't think she will accept me..."
"You should try, you have nothing to lose... and with how busy your life is, she may be your only chance"
"Y... yes... you're right," said Tom, refocusing on the work.
Melany on her part saw herself in a dark room. There were two dark figures talking and debating with a third, who nodded and approached her with something sharp in their hand. Melany backed away scared until her back was against a wall, being cornered by the figure who took one of her six hands firmly, pulling her.
"Ah!" Melany woke up, opening both pairs of eyes, with an expression of fear. She blinked several times looking at the ceiling of James's bedroom and then sat on the bed, letting the sheets fall and expose her bare chest. She raised her upper right hand and touched the forehead of her right head as with her left hand she inspected her extra arms, touching them. "They're still here... calm down Melany, it was just a dream" she said to herself.
She got out of bed and slowly walked towards the chair she took the blouse putting it on while she finished waking up with a big yawn with each mouth. She walked into the living room looking at the sheets on the couch, with no sign of James anywhere.
"James?" she asked with both heads in a higher tone, trying to make James hear her, but there was no answer. Arriving at the dining room and not knowing very well what to do, she found James's note:
"Melany
I know you need a good rest so I let you continue sleeping. I hope you have rested well!
I went to work, I will return at noon for lunch. I know it is sudden and weird for you but feel at home. If you are hungry, eat what you need. I will take more provisions on the way home.
James"
Melany's heart raced and James's words touched her almost to tears. In her mind, she imagined herself being thrown out the next morning but apparently, James surprises her more and more "Maybe I'm so used to bad people... James is different," she said smiling and holding the note against her chest fondly. "Okay... I have to do something for him," she said to herself, getting down to work.
Around noon, James returned home and starts calling Melany as he closed the door behind him. When he turn around, Melany held him from his clothes with one hand, two expressions of shame and sadness invading the girl's faces. "Melany? What happened? Are you okay?" James said worriedly while Melany showed him a glass broken at the tip. "I... I'm sorry, it was an accident, I will do whatever it takes to make up for it," Melany said concerned about James's reaction.
James just patted her on the left head and smiled "Don't worry, it's nothing serious... you didn't cut yourself, it's the important part," he said as he walked through the house. The smell of perfume invaded his nose, which surprised James who started looking in all directions. The house gleamed from cleanliness. Melany had done the work of three people in a few hours.
James started to laugh with happiness, which surprised Melany who was still huddled behind him with embarrassment "If this is the payment, please keep breaking more glasses" said putting a hand on Melany's right head "Don't you want to stay longer?" Melany blushed and smiled with both heads, nodding repeatedly. “Good… oh, and about the glass. Is a joke, please don’t broke them” Melany giggled and nod “Yes!” she said with both heads.
