Lauren

Have you ever thought about maybe being adopted ? I often did, but then I looked at my dad and the resemblance couldn't be denied. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents more than anything in the world, but sometimes no one gets me. I keep hearing that I shouldn't be like this, that it's unbecoming of a girl and that I should be grateful for my life because not everyone is born into a rich family like me. There's more to life than money, it's sad that I'm the only one who sees it that way. When I was a kid my parents bought me everything I wanted but I always missed the warmth of home. My parents weren't home forever and my sister and I were at home with our maid Grace but I never saw her that way she was always part of our family. I think she's also the reason I haven't become the spoiled girl you see on TV a lot. At school I can say I'm one of the popular girls but don't worry we're not like Mean Girls here I'm not like Regina and I'm certainly not blonde, in fact I have brown hair my sister has brown too but she irons it so people can tell us apart. We're identical twins so you can't tell us apart, but as far as personalities go we're each totally different. My sister is more the type of girl who wears bows in her hair, wears skirts and is just like a princess. And then there's me in ripped jeans and a leather jacket, yeah I love looking tough.

"If it isn't my favorite of the twins, Lauren, I'm so glad to finally see you, how was France? I heard you met someone there. I want to hear all the details. Was he as pretty as he looked? Was there anything more going on between you two? Dinah raised her eyebrows at me.

"Yes I met someone, yes he was hot but he wasn't my type. And to answer your last question, no, nothing happened between us. You know I like to get to know a person before you do.

"Yes, I know. For a total heartbreaker, you're actually a romantic. Maybe someday I'll find someone like you, but so far I've been lucky to find only fools. I don't know why I'm not lucky in love, Dinah said in a sad tone.

"Maybe it's because you're a jerk magnet. Let it go, don't go headfirst into a relationship, try to get to know a person better before you go into a relationship with them, and don't let yourself be manipulated.

Thank you Lo, you really are the best friend ever, I love you ❤️

"Yeah I know what you'd do without me I laughed, I've loved you too BFF
