Unidentical Twins

EXCERPT
“Momm!” Abby and Gabby yelled
in unison as they tugged on a lavender blouse.
“Do I have to wear this?” Abby
asked, referring to the blouse. “I don’t want
to wear what she’s got on.” She crinkled her
nose at Gabby. “Can’t we dress differently today?”
“You will be dressed differently,”
said Mom. “You’ll wear a red shirt and Gabby
will wear the blue one like it. Twins are so cute dressed
alike.” Her mother smiled. “The only way I tell
the two of you apart is by the colors of your clothes. You
don’t want to confuse me or your father… or
your teachers!”
Abby wanted to scream I don’t care!!
Rather, she made a decision. “I will
wear the lavender blouse. And that’s that!”
