[ WP ] An evil twin is starting to feel concerned that they might not be the evil one .

Helena tapped her fingers against her thigh nervously. She had been waiting for Amelia for almost half an hour and the longer her beloved sibling failed to appear, the more worried she became. True, their relationship had always been fraught with jealousy and the occasional `` accident'' but Helena truly loved her sister. She simply had a twisted way of showing it. Amelia was the prim and proper one, always demure regardless of the situation while Helena was the nasty twin who had a habit of wrecking relationships. 
 
 Right now, she was concerned about Amelia's recent outings. In fact, Helena was concerned enough that she had picked the lock to her sister's house, slipped inside to do a full investigation of the home and was now waiting to question her about the growing collection of edged weaponry above scattered throughout the house. 
 
 `` Helena, is that you?'' The woman in question almost leaped from her skin in panic. Amelia was waiting off of one shoulder with an almost amused look on her face. Helena had n't heard her enter the house let alone come up the creaky staircase. 
 
 `` Amelia! What a lovely surprise. I was just in the area and I thought I would stop by, see how you're doing.'' Helena fell back into her oldest of habits: Lying her ass off. She smiled awkwardly, letting the perfect amount of embarrassment into the grin. `` I'm sorry for wandering, I thought Kenneth might be up here and I was hoping to have a chat with him.'' Amelia chuckled quietly to herself, slipping into the room past her sister. 
 
 `` Kenneth's not here right now.'' Helena's smile waned as her stomach began to churn uneasily. Amelia dropped to one knee and slid a small bag under her bed, one that Helena had not noticed previously. `` He's on a business trip. No idea when he'll come back.'' Helena nodded in faux agreement, unconvinced by the answer. 
 
 `` Loyal husband that one. Always jetting off to provide for the family.'' Amelia's lips curled slightly at the weak joke but did not speak. She simply stared at her sister. 
 `` I did n't see Caleb or James on my way in. Are they at a friend's house?'' She adored her nephews, often regaling them with tales of her exploits. It had seemed ironic that her twin sister would have twins of her own and Helena took great glee in taunting her about it. Amelia nodded slowly after a moment of contemplation. 
 
 `` That's right, they're at a friend's house. Were you hoping to read them a story before bed?'' There was a smell in the room now, the nauseatingly familiar scent of viscera. Helena must not have held her composure as well as she had thought because Amelia noticed her slight flinch. `` I'm so sorry about the stench, I hit a bird on the drive home so I had to finish her off.'' Helena was so busy trying to keep her eyes off of the dark stain down Amelia's sleeve that she almost missed the slip. 
 
 `` Right, poor thing. Were you coming back from dropping the boys off?'' She tried to keep the desperation out of her voice. It was a physical effort not to reach for the switch-blade tucked into her waistband. Amelia giggled quietly, the sound like blaring like a warning siren. 
 
 `` Of course not, silly. I was just visiting Mom and Dad.'' Helena was slowly backing out of the room, a shaky smile on her face. There was a noticeable tremor to her limbs and her throat was suddenly dry. 
 
 `` Right. Well, I'll just go now. Do n't want to interrupt your busy schedule.'' Amelia was at her side in a flash, one gentle hand on her shoulder. Helena froze, heart pounding violently in her chest. 
 
 `` Helena. You know that I love you, right? That you can always talk to me if there's something wrong?'' There was something in her voice, a faint hint of malice beneath the compassionate veneer. It struck Helena speechless, though she nodded jerkily. `` Good. I'm glad, my sweet sister.'' Amelia leaned forward, resting her head tenderly into the crook of Helena's neck. `` And is there something wrong?'' Her other arm encircled her sister's waist in soft hug. Helena had gone stiff as a board yet she still managed to shake her head furiously. They remained entwined for a few moments more before Amelia released her. `` I'm glad. Is there anything else you wanted to ask?'' Helena pasted a watery smile on her face, trying in vain to fight off the tears leaking from her eyes. 
 
 `` Nope. I just wanted to drop in and see how you were doing.'' She stepped away from her sister woodenly. `` I should probably be going anyway. People to see, places to be. You know how it is.'' Helena laughed feebly as she slowly turned, her eyes clenching shut tightly. She walked descended the stairwell one tread at a time, each footfall booming like a cannon-blast. It seemed like an eternity between the last stair and the front door. Helena had her hand on the doorknob when Amelia whispered in her ear. 
 
 `` You should go see Mom and Dad. They're very lonely without you.''
