Rosey stormed into Acker's bedroom to find him standing across the room, General Fluffs in his hands. The scene took her by surprise, but she quickly recovered and shut the door behind her.
"Acker I..."he cut her off before she could finish.
"Hold it! General Fluffs and I do not take it to our liking, our being kept in the dark about this identical twin of yours. We demand answers, and we demand them now"he said.
"Yes, you do, and I'll tell you"Rosey said and crossed her hands over her chest.
"Me and Daphne have never really been close sisters, she pulled pranks and did stuff to get me mad. But I loved her, she was my other half, I couldn't hate her, even if I tried. That's how we grew up till we turned twenty, she had gotten enough of our controlling father, she dropped out of college, and ran away. I helped her escape, we did together, but in the middle of escaping and running away. She left me alone, worse than that, she called Dad told him where I was then left me. And now she has some nerve coming back here after everything that happened between us"Rosey said.
"Rosey, I am indeed disheartened that you feel such, but we are neglecting the greater issue at hand here!"Acker said.
"I know, I don't know how she got your spell book, or how she even knew about it, I'll have to find out..."Acker cut her off before she could finish.
"That's far from the matter! She stole a kiss from me! Now she has to suffer the consequences"Acker said sounding serious, but it made Rosey start to smile.
"Do you take my predicament so lightly, I relate my crisis and you turn it away?"he asked, Rosey tried her best to hide a grin.
"Fine, is there a cleansing ceremony she has to conduct?"Rosey teasingly asked. "The only ceremony she has to perform is a nuptial binding ceremony, between us both as that is the only form of rectification"Acker said.
Rosey furrowed her brows, "you want to marry Daphne?"she asked, her countenance had fallen almost immediately.
"I do not want to I am compelled to"he said and stared at the hamster. "The General will understand my plight, it is a thing of duty and one cannot forsake duty"Acker said.
"Acker, sorry to cut off your expectations, but Daphne isn't the marrying type. Or the any type you'll never get to fulfil that duty"Rosey said.
"You're about to see Rosey, the true power of my determination, I will woo her into this alliance..."
"You won't be wooing anyone Acker! It was just a kiss, it didn't mean anything to you or to her. Lots of people kiss people today, there's literally a movie called the kissing booth. No one needs a reason to kiss anyone"Rosey enlightened him.
"How can such be! A booth, for kissing! Such sin should not be condoned. This time never stops surprising me"Acker said. "Rosey"he called out, she made a hmm sound. "Have you ever...kissed a man for the sake of it?"he asked, mumbled rather. He had his eyes down most of the time, Rosey was taken by surprise by this question.
"Well...I think I have"Rosey said, feeling somewhat shy all of a sudden, "what provoked you to engage in such with a man?"Acker asked, the room seeming tensed and awkward.
"I was not provoked, and I was ten at the time, and he was twelve, he was the son of one of my mother's friends"Rosey said. "You lost your innocence at such a young age?!"he asked almost screaming his head off. Rosey covered his mouth with her hand, her cheeks flushing crimson red.
"People can hear you and no I did not seal the deed"Rosey said, Acker stared at her hand on his mouth, "will you promise not to say anything?"Rosey asked, he nodded positively she slowly lifted her hand from his mouth.
"What stage of your life did you...seal the deed?"he asked and placed General Fluffs in his cage, to rest and eat.
Rosey looked around, pretending Acker was not in the room, but it was hard to avoid the Elephant in the room.
"Why do you even want to know?"Rosey asked, not willing to talk about that topic.
"I am contemplating whether or not I should pursue the hand of your twin in holy matrimony"Acker said, "Infact, do what you want, am interested in seeing how this goes. But you and me have a lot of shopping to do"Rosey said.
"Why do you tend to refer to this shopping? Is it a brave act or an endeavoring task to prove great strength?"Acker inquired. Rosey face palmed.
"It's an enduring task, which proves your decisiveness and reflects your inner thoughts"Rosey said, grabbing Acker's attention fully.
"Then we must embark on this journey tomorrow! Before the sun rises, we shall conquer this quest"Acker said. "Am not sure malls are open that early"Rosey muttered to herself, walking towards the door.
"Rosey, do you intend to put on a charade that Daphne is non existing?"Acker inquired, Rosey stopped walking and sighed.
"It's complicated"Rosey said and left the room.
"What is your take on this crisis general? Do we engage and obtain Daphne's hand or...do I need to kiss someone else?"He asked, staring at the hamster as if it could talk back. Then an idea flashed across his mind.
He picked up the spell book, and flipped through some pages, till he landed at a page. He read the page repeatedly, then closed his eyes, a glass fell from the study table. Wind flew in, Acker's lips parted, he mumbled somethings then opened his eyes. They were green, in seconds, everything stopped, his eyes flashed back to their original colour. He took a second to meditate and relax.
"The Fuck!"
"Wait shit! It's like...am saying my mind and words are coming out! Holy...."
Acker's concentration was blocked by the voice, he looked over at the hamster, who was moving around the cage in confusion.
"Oh dude I can talk! And my voice is dauuuumn!"The hamster said, Yes, the hamster was talking, speaking real words it turns out that Acker casted the spell rightly and got the results.
"General? Is that you?"Acker asked, the hamster stopped moving around and stared at Acker, for seconds they stared at each other, Acker started to doubt his sanity.
"Fuck am just messing with you!"The hamster said, Acker almost fell down due to shock, "you okay?"the hamster asked.
Acker nodded, gaining his senses, "I didn't know I could do it, I did it"Acker said under his breath still taking in the shock of his success.
"This was you! With all that Hocus pocus Vudu? All that Abracadabra gimmick you got going on? Oh man I owe you my dinner for this!"The hamster said, still moving around.
"General, there is a crisis, and it needs immediate action"Acker said, sounding serious all of a sudden.
The hamster rested against his cage and said,"shoot!"
"I don't hurt animals"Acker said, "I mean tell me, Jeez! Lighten up man"Fluffs said.
"I....this is an embarrassing situation...I...."Acker placed his hand on his neck, still contemplating the right choice of words.
"Just open your mouth hole and let the words fly out"Fluffs said.
"A...A woman ki... kissed me"he said frankly and a silence followed. The room became silent, too silent.
"Excuse me? Is... is...is that your definition of a crisis! You have a talking hamster in front of you! And you....You think a hot girl is the problem?"Fluffs asked not expecting an answer.
"Is it Rosey? I bet it's Rosey, I see the chemistry you too got going on"Fluffs said, "Rosey?"Acker asked in disbelief.
"Fuck yeah! I just feel bad for missing the kiss"Fluffs said. "it is not her that I shared a kiss with, it is Daphne, her twin"Acker said trying to clear up the confusion.
"There are two of em! You my friend are a lucky bastard!"Fluffs said, "for an animal, you definitely possess a loose tongue"Acker said, "Well I wasn't the one who casted that spell now was I?"Fluffs asked not expecting an answer.
"Then I'll cast another"Acker said, "hold up! You were the one talking about duty and not neglecting your duty, it's YOUR duty and you know it"Fluffs said.
"Rosey will never believe this"he said half smiling and chuckling, till it dawned on him.
"I made Rosey's innocent general a loose tongued tyrant!"Acker said panicked.
A/N: I think this chapter was kinda... I have no words, Rosey and Daphne have this delicate kind of relationship. I hope they can resolve this and make up. Wait! Am the one writing? I totally forgot for a second...lol...
Love you all! Thanks for the votes, see y'all in the next chapter.
