I've Got 2 Heads On My Shoulders And Here's What My Life Is Like

Elina's story is about what it's like to have two heads on their shoulders.

Elina's family used to live in a small village where everyone knew each other. It was the kind of an open community where neighbors just go around and walk in to have a cuppa, and nobody keeps any secrets. Her parents were happy farming and gardening but one thing clouded their happiness: they couldn't conceive a child. Some people even said there was a curse on them. The doctors who examined them said it was too early to be concerned. But Mom wanted their life to be perfect. She went to local wise women, who performed rituals to help her conceive. Dad didn't really approve but he tried to keep an open mind.

Eventually, Mom told him the awesome news: she was finally expecting a baby! Dad was overjoyed. As they prepared for Elina's birth, they arranged a bedroom for her, bought a shiny new crib and tons of fancy little things.

Finally, Mom went to the hospital for her labor. Dad was beyond himself with excitement. He was pacing the hallway waiting for a baby to cry behind the closed doors. As soon as he heard it, he ran up the stairs, only to overhear a nurse saying she had never seen a child like this. Dad banged on the door and demanded to see the newborn.

As he bent over the child, his face was twisted with horror. He expected to see anything but that! A two-headed creature lay before his eyes. Each of its heads was making a squeaking noise, and a third arm growing out of its chest was making grasping movements. Dad went white in the face and he yelled at Mom that her wise women with their rituals were to blame. Mom never saw him again.

The two sisters named Elina got along well enough with just one body to share. The doctors offered Mom to remove one of the heads but she said that was murder. She gave them one name and took them back to the empty house. They did remove Elina's third arm at birth as it wasn't really functional. So the sisters had two arms, two legs, and a perfectly working set of internal organs. They led a normal life, even if they were the talk of the village. Mom refused to admit there were two of them and she'd just call them "Daughter" or "Elina", singular. Elina never really argued with her even though they never doubted they weren't the same person.

Occasionally, the sisters couldn't agree on something or wanted to do different things. One of them likes drawing and the other one loves music. So they'd set up a schedule. They had no choice but to tolerate each other.

People admired their paintings and their original music was the accompaniment for every school event. Elina's art teacher arranged exhibitions in the nearest big city, where their paintings found buyers. Elina's music teacher recorded CDs with their compositions, which made great gifts for their friends and family.

You're probably wondering whether the sisters knew love. The answer is yes! Except their preferences didn't match. The sisters kept falling for different boys. They'd fight and one of them would always end up in tears. Mom would come into Elina's room to console them. She'd say: "My girl, you have to make peace with yourself. If your thoughts happen to dwell in two different heads, you just have to wait for them to align. Don't rush it! Surely you'll find your heart's desire and be happy one day."

So one day, Elina met their former classmate at a local cafe. George went away to live in the city when they were still in school. He was so happy to see the sisters he gave each of them a peck on the cheek. They went for a walk in the park and they discussed his city life for hours. George said he never forgot Elina and he'd wanted to reconnect for a while. Nightfall caught them by surprise. When the sisters got home, they spent the night discussing their date and sharing their thoughts. That was how Elina started dating George.

The summer went by. After Elina's boyfriend went back to the city, they were depressed. They were worried George would never come back to them. Every night, the sisters would turn their heads in opposite directions and cry themselves to sleep – quietly so Mom wouldn't hear. They felt it was their only opportunity for happiness, the first and only time they fell for the same person.

One afternoon, there was a car at Elina's gate. The man they loved got out of the car and ran to the door. Elina threw their arms around his neck. George reached into his pocket and produced two little boxes with two wedding rings. That was how Mom finally had to admit Elina was two different people.

The sisters are married women now. Their husband says he could never beat the two of them in an argument. He loves them both equally. Elina would like to say everyone has the right to be happy. You just have to have faith in yourself and never lose hope.
