Jada and I do everything together.We are in the same class.We dress alike.We look the same.We always get other people confused.This really makes Jada and I laugh.Teachers and friends always get us mixed up at school.even our father has troubles telling us apart.Our mother doesn't. She alays know which twin is which.Jada and I often try to confuse her, but it has never happened.
Orientation
One day, our teacher told our mother to get one of us a different hair cut so that he could tell us apart.Jada and I were horrified.we didn,t want to look different.We like looking the same.

Our mother came to the rescue, and refused to make us cut our hair.We were happy just the way we were and didn,t want to change.Our dad just shook his head. He would have to stay confused.Jada and I didn't care
Event 2
