"They're truly giants. This is the only explanation."

Helja let out a new sigh as she found herself again suffering from the endless delusions of her twin. The latter was again pacing back and forth along the floor of her room while Helja struggled to read. She was lying on her back with her feet leaning against her headboard. She lowered her book for a moment to look upside down at her twin before rolling her eyes in the objection."Giants don't exist, Magne."

"You read the books. You know the history of the gods much better than I do." Magne insisted clearly not ready to give up on this idea."They tested Thor with mead. Just like the Jutuls with me."

This time Helja gasped in arrogance from her brother before giving him a look from her upside down position."Okay, this is final. You have completely lost your mind."

"You haven't heard Saxa in class today." Magne defended in agitation.

Helja sighed, looking up at her ceiling in boredom at the insistence of her twin before turning on her stomach to look at him, holding her face between her palms."Fine. Suppose for a moment I believe in your story. Do you seriously think you're Thor?"

This time Magne paused visibly dubiously, letting Helja give him a sharp look to support her point. She shook her satisfied head before trying to retrieve her book.

"You can close the door behind you."

"What? No!" Magne defended as he took the book from her hands before giving a frustrated look at his sister."You're the only one I can talk to about this."

"And I sincerely begin to regret it." Helja sighed, rolling her eyes before straightening up in a sitting position with her legs crossed in Indian style.

Magne sat across from her before giving her a serious look."You have to stay with me during the trip to the mountains."

"You can' be serious." Huffed Helja.

Magne immediately frowned in confusion."Why not ?"

"Maybe it's because I'm trying to make friends, Magne." Helja reminded, giving him a weary look."I promised Baldr that I would hike with him."

Unsurprisingly Magne let out a breath of surprise before lowering his eyes to his hands, nodding his head in disappointment."Right. Baldr."

"What?" Helja breathed suddenly amused by her twin's childish jealousy."Don't tell me you're jealous?"

"Pff, no!" The blond immediately denies shaking his head before getting up visibly embarrassed.

Helja left a real smile this time as she watched her twin hasten to flee into the embarrassment.

She shook her head with a breath of laughter as he closed the door behind him. She leaned down on her bed to retrieve her phone when the phone rings, announcing a notification before frowning in surprise and confusion at the sight of a text from Gry.
