"I mean, we're twins, but you are so different" he continued
"We are twins doesn't make us the same people Ivan, and besides you came 3 seconds after me"
"But you.."
"Listen, I'm happy with myself. Our parents have worked so hard, I don't think I need to work as hard anymore. It doesn't make sense to me. All I want is to live my life, get married, have my kids and live a happy heart attack free life. I just wanna leave something significant behind"
"You know why I never paid attention during math class in senior high?" She asked after a few minutes of silence.
Ivan shook his head
"Besides the basic math operations, I just didn't see a practical application for a few others, like differentiation, damn I hate that topic so much"
Ivan laughed.
"Just let this go Ivan, I'll never believe in unnecessary hard work. Mom and Dad have to learn to understand this, I can't change any further"
"Well, you can't really blame them for being worried can you?"
"Enough of this Ivan, I'm happy, that's all that matters. Now you, why don't you have any interest in girls?"
"What? Who told you that?" He asked, he sounded really surprised.
"Well, your actions I guess"
"That is so wrong, no, I actually have a girlfriend you know"
"What? That's betrayal. You didn't tell me?"
"Its not like I know of any of your boyfriends"
"Bummer dude, that's cause I have none. Never had one"
Ivan stared at her, he was shocked
"Are you... serious?" He asked
"Yea, you don't believe me?"
"Sounds quite unbelievable. Are you... You know?"
"A lesbian?"
He nodded, she laughed
"No idiot, I'm not. I just know not to get into a relationship until I'm ready to settle down"
"Like, get married?"
She nodded
"Wow, that's awesome"
"So, your girlfriend, is she someone I know?"
"Um, I don't think so"
"Then you have to introduce her to me as soon as we get out of here"
"Definitely, she's always wanted to meet you. she thinks you sound interesting"
"Ah" she laughed,
"I already like her"
"You really think we'll get out of here?"
"Of course Ivan. Let's get some sleep, I'm exhausted"
