I had a very weird dream this morning, but I could barely remember any details of it now, no matter how much I tried. All I could recall was that I was in the future, nothing more, nothing less. But there was no point in thinking about it anyway, so it would be better to move on.
Yesterday morning, I opened a conversation with Mom and Mother about something. They said they had no time to think about it, but during our bath, they both happily gave me a thumbs up for the idea that I suggested them.
"Is everybody already here, Mary?"
"Affirmative, Milady." Mary bobbed her head toward Mother. "All the household servants, the heads of government offices, and the media are already in the great hall."
"Good." Mother then tightened the locks of her arms with her two gorgeous partners. "Alright, everyone. Let us make this official."
Right now, we are in the parlor on the first floor of our mansion. Facing their backs to me, from left to right, Mom, Mother, and Gabrielle locked their arms up as they marched their way to the door of the chamber.
As they walked, I gracefully followed them behind since I was not the star of the day. Once we reached a certain distance from the door, the guards behind it pulled out the doors for us to pass through.
Upon entering the grand hall, a crowd of standing people, composed of several dozens of people, awaited our entrance. Almost all of them were focusing their full attention on us—mostly toward the new-to-the-eye and worth beholding figure among us, the platinum blonde woman named Gabrielle.
Despite their real age, Mom and Mother were already very beautiful and stunning, but the angelic presence of Gabrielle greatly increased the radiance that they had been emitting, leaving the audience to bewitchingly stare at them in awe and admiration.
"Who is that strikingly beautiful woman...?"
"It seems like she is quite close with the lady..."
"Are they going to make an announcement regarding her...? Don't tell me..."
The crowd murmured as we walked in; most of them were the servants serving our household. From what I could hear, she was questioning the presence of a new woman in our mansion and her relationship with us.
After a short strut, we stopped our feet and then faced the audience in the great hall. I positioned myself diagonally on their right wing, by the way. Mother took a glance at them from left to right, subtly demanding that they pay attention to her.
"It seems like everyone is here." Still locking arms with Mom and Gabrielle, Mother muttered. "For the reason why I gather up anyone here, it is because we are going to announce a particular matter regarding the woman in my left."
Chatter.
The crowd started to murmur among themselves again, confirming to themselves that the matter was about Gabrielle. After her introduction, Mother unlocked her arms with Mom and Gabrielle before she continued.
"Ahem." Mother cleared up her throat, which grabbed their attention and put the crowd into silence. "For those who are wondering, this woman besides me is named Gabrielle. She is currently an active adventurer in the empire."
"Good morning, everyone. Gabrielle is my name. I am glad to meet you."
As she greeted the crowd, Gabrielle pinched the fabrics of her white dress and took an elegant bow in front of them. It was a good thing that her dress covered up her entire bust, thankfully, it was also the same with Mom and Mother.
If not, it would be a great view for Mr. Journalist, who was painstakingly taking notes on his notepad. I absolutely did not want any man other than myself to take even a slight glimpse of their bare bodies, so their garments had increased their coverage since I told them to.
"Alright, everyone, I wanted you all to listen." After Gabrielle's greetings, Mother continued. "Standing in front of all the people here in this hall, I am proud to announce that I am currently entering a relationship with this woman, a romantic one specifically."
"Oohh...!"
Everyone in the crowd gasped as Mother nonchalantly dropped the bomb. Even our servants covered their mouths with their hands at the sudden announcement of the head of the family they were serving.
The reason why we had our servants, some government officials, and a journalist gather at the great hall was to make an announcement about Gabrielle's relationship with our family.
"But that is not all." Mom suddenly interjected with a smile. "Actually, I am, too, having a relationship with Gabrielle. In short, we three are lovers of one another."
"Ooohh...!"
Just like throwing more fuel on the fire, the surprised crowd was filled with shock and confusion upon hearing those unexpected words directly coming out of Mom.
Our servants knew some common knowledge about my parents, such as the gynephilic behavior of Mother and her wild past. But really, Mother stopped seeing other women and had been so loyal to Mom since she had a child with her.
All they knew about Mom was that she was not fond of women as much as Mother, so they could not contain their shock when she carelessly made that announcement. But in my opinion, I think that Mom was pansexual, so she could love other people without regard to their gender.
"Calm down, everyone." Mother told them to chill out. "We weren't finished yet."
Upon telling them that, the crowd looked at us clearly, expressing the faces of, "There's more?!" But Mother took no heed of them and proceeded with her words.
"This is the main proclamation of this conference. In front of the world, I am proudly announcing that Gabrielle has been engaged to us."
Soon after she announced that, Mother, Mom, and Gabrielle raised their left hands and showed the new golden rings on their ring fingers.
"Also," Mother added. "We would like to announce to you that Claire and I are going to marry a second time and will take Gabrielle as our second wife."
A brief moment of silence filled the entire hall. Only the scribbling pen noises of the journalist could be literally heard; he professionally did not mind every word of Mother.
Not long before a set of claps rang through the spacious chamber, followed by a loud round of applause and greetings.
"Wow..."
"Congratulations, Milady!"
"Best wishes!"
"Thank you, everyone."
It seems like everybody digested and understood the situation. Without or with the minimum of doubts, they eventually accepted the matter of women marrying one another. Of course, one could not work at our mansion if they were homophobic.
"To seal our love. Behold!"
As soon as she said that, Mother turned her face toward Gabrielle before giving her a romantic kiss on the lips. Upon seeing that, the crowd gasped in amazement and gaped. The unwavering journalist even stopped himself from writing and watched the scene.
"Pwah."
"Alright, my turn."
After their lips set apart, Mom grabbed Gabrielle's head for her to give her a kiss. It was a rare sight for our servants to see Mom kissing another person other than her wife, so surprises filled the hall anew.
(If he looks at them any longer, he might not be able to see the sun rise any further.)
Meanwhile, it seemed that the journalist was enjoying the scenery as well, which boiled my blood a little. But I managed to calm myself down and continue to stand by their side.
"Mmm..."
After a few seconds, their spit swapping finished, and they then turned back to their former spots. Mother grabbed their waists and pulled them closer to her.
"That's all for tonight. If you have further questions, feel free to ask."
Afterwards, our morning had been so busy dealing with the inquiries of the journalist and the officials.
