---You know that one - maybe a few times when someone mistaken you for another? Then, when you correct them they laugh it off and act as if its the most hilarious thing? And then the next day they make the exact same mistake? Yeah, I get that.
All the fucking time.
It tends to happen a lot when your a Quadruplet . Yes, as in four! Not only that, but your identical quadruplets. As in, you have the same face - from the eyes to your freaking big toe with three other people. Three!
Mom and Dad got a little too freaky and ended up with four girls! I don't even want to think about what went down during that time. Shudder.
Let's meet them shall we.
The oldest - by four minutes - is the feisty she-man, Scarlett Crimson Sage. Also known as the sport addict, adrenaline drug driven maniac that has brought our school sports teams to victory ever since we entered high school. But no one would say it to her face for they value their life. Scarlett lives up to her name; just like the rest of us. The girl is short tempered and can pack a good punch. And when I say good, I mean UFC good!
A couple seconds behind Scarlett is the next Leonardo da Vinci, Argent Silver Sage. She's been into this art thingy since we were infants. From sketching to sculpting Argent can do it all. Her art works speak volume and they never cease to amaze me; or anyone for that matter. Argent is the laid back one, that jokes around with everyone and takes her artwork wayyy to seriously.
Next up we have our Albert Einstein, Lilac Lavendar Sage. This girl takes smart to a whole new level. When I say a whole new level I mean a whole new level. She speaks wayyy to damn smart, like she uses those big, tongue twisting words. Lilac is considered the nice one unless you get on her bad side. Then you got Hell to pay. She may seem sweet and adorable but the girl will bite your nose off if you piss her off.
And finally me, Sapphire Cerulean Sage. I'm the odd one in the family. The one that doesn't stand out like a sore thumb. Unlike my sisters, I don't have any talents.. I'm not good in anything particular; except for getting into trouble - if that counts. Oh what the heck. Thats the only thing I am goo--
"There you go again, spacing out like always." Mom's voice pulls me out of my day dream. I look up from my food and see Mom giving me a disapproving look.
I hold back from rolling my eyes and settle with leaning back in my chair. We're currently eating dinner as a family which rarely happens. And that is mostly Mom's fault. My sisters and I hardly eat at home; same with our Dad.
"Sorry," I mumble under my breath. But since Mom has super hearing - its a thing between Mom's - she heard me clearly.
"Sapphire, you know I hate the mumbling," she says in a stern voice. This time I don't hold back and just roll my eyes; which to my credit she clearly saw.
The woman reminds me of the step mother from Tangle. I smirk at my inside joke.
Mom gives me the 'did you just roll your eyes at me?' look. She gives me one last look and turns her attention to Lilac - who is to my right. In the corner of my eye I see Lilac reading probably her latest book. Mom looks in her direction with a disapproving expression, like she did with me. Your up next sis.
Just as I predicted, Mom lectures Lilac about reading at the dinner table and how it is 'un-lady like'. Scarlett and Argent are silently laughing at Lilac; if Mom wasn't so focused on lecturing Lilac she would hear them and turned on them. Lilac is the goody-goody who hardly runs into any trouble and is loved by all. So when we are presented with the chance to see Miss. Goody-goody get lecture, we take it and enjoy it.
