After meeting the very cold and stern master of the House, Duke Lorenzo Sisyphus, Jack and Jill left the room with an unknown smile drawn all over their faces.
"Is he 'our father'" Jill asked but didn't sound so. Jack smiled and slowly nodded his head. "Seems so"
"Interesting"
So it goes like this, Jack and Jill was a bastard twins conceived ouf of wedlock. Their mother, who passed away was a prostitute and had a one night stand with the Duke. But the fate was rather playful and their mother was impregnated. Their mother hid in order to avoid the Duke and his Family's wrath. Not wanting to kill the children in her stomach, the prostitute was determine to raise them outside the knowledge of House Sisyphus.
She give brith to them and raised them all by herself. Not until few months ago, a man who introduced himself as their father suddenly appeared saying he would take them with him and raise them. And for no rhyme or reason, their mother who was originally vigorous and healthy died in an unknown illness thus leaving the twins no choice.
And that's how they arrived at Sisyphus Ducal house and met their father. It's been a month and all they got was hostile treatment from the maids and violence from the Madam of the House. For that few days after coming here, the old Jack and Jill received a lot of beatings until their body didn't able to stand everything at all. And that's how Jack and Jill overtook the bodies of the twins.
"Such dirty lowly beings. I can't take it anymore huhu~"
It was Medea who spoke. Both stopped walking and turned around to see the scornful look the pair of sibling threw towards Jack and Jill. Jack smiled sweetly as if he didn't heard those words. Jill was silent but her eyes were deep and unfathomable, not befitting for a child like her.
(Should I kill them?) Jill thought.
And strangely enough, Jack was able to hear Jill's thought ansd so he tried speaking in his thoughts hopimg it could also reach Jill. Though ut was insane, Jack did try so.
(We'll get there~) Jack answered. Jill's eyes widen and he quickly glanced at Jack.
(Let's talk about this later) Jack once again thought.
"What are you smiling for huh? Dirty Bastard" Jason coldly muttered.
"Ugh. Older brother, let's leave that dirty bastards alone. They don't worth our time" Medea angrily rolled her eyes as she pulled Jason with her.
Medea has a silver wavy hair, her complexion looks really healthy like it was a fresh and rich coconut milk. Her big and round eyes were green like a pale emerald where she got from her father, her thin red lips was attatched to her small face. She's 8 years old this year, a year younger than the twins. Jason also had a silver hair, a proof of their lineage. His eyes where deep oceanic blue which he got from his father. A well sculpted face and mature vibe. Excudes a very noble and prideful aura, completely different form Jack. Jason's turning 11 this year.
Medea and Jason walked passed them. Hated the fact that the bastard girl has a very beautiful crimson red eyes which they got from their mother, Medea purposely bumped into Jill. Jill, aware of what the little girl was thinking to do, let her do as she please. Jill soften her body and let herself fall on the floor. A snicker escaped from Medea's mouth.
Jack held Jill and helped her to stand up.
Jill smiled sweetly and so as Jack.
"It's no fun to pick an unripen fruit, you know~" Jack smiled as he spoke. Jill chuckled. "I know. You don't have to remind me" And the both of them chuckled as they went back to their room.
The air the twins left behind was cold and eeire.

"So you mean to say, we can talk through telepathy? " Asked Jill after Jack told him what just happened. Jack nodded his head and contemplated afterwards.
"This may be some kind of cheat" Jill added. Jack smiled and tilted his head innocently.
(What a pretentious psychopath) Jill thought forgetting the fact Jack can actually hear him.
Jack chuckled "So as you, sweet psycho" Jill rolled her eyes.
"What the heck! This isn't something we should be too thankful. It's clearly an invasion of privacy" Annoyed, Jill exclaimed.
"I've been thinking about that. Why don't we try closing our thoughts or something like that" Jack suggested. Jill frowned "You mean making it private so we can't hear each other's thoughts when needed? " Jill asked and Jack nodded.
The twin did as they thought but though it was harder than expected. The twin was able to pull it of.
"Since handphone and pcs aren't available in this place, we'll use this to our advantage" Jack smiled as if he just discovered a very amazing thing. Which is true.
"And the rules shall be set. Only open our thoughts when necessary. I don't want to hear your mindless thoughts all the time" Jill declared.
"That's harsh"
"Whatever, psycho"
Small giggles escaped from their mouths.
"Speaking of which, I do not like that maid"
Jill changed topic. Jack laughed "I know."
"Hmm~ what to do~ " Jill sweetly sang the words and Jack shook his head.
"Make sure to do it clean" Jack said
"Of course." Jill shortly answered.
Do it clean.
Because the last time they did it unclean, was the last day they breath.
