Rachael was listening to music while watching the TV in the sitting room. She was the type who would combine two things at a time just to fight the boredom that was eating into her very soul and threatened to steal her sanity from her.
She was so engrossed in her own world that she failed to notice the twins come towards her. One was as radiant as the morning sun while the other was as gloomy as the darkness in the abyss. She only noticed when she was tapped on the arm.
She looked over and gave them a slight nod and then asked, "what do you want sweetie?"
She was, in fact, not hearing a thing they said. She had a head phone over her ears and loud music blaring into her ears while also watching a TV programme she could follow only thanks to the subtitling functions.
