I saw the twins again today, she said. They are getting older, but they still look the same. Craggy, serious, hard.
Yes, I know, he said, they were never cute, but they certainly have character.
I think I will ask them if I can draw their portraits she said. It would be interesting to chat with them and find out a bit about them.
So three weeks later she say down with a pen and paper and started to draw Kim and Jen. She started slowly, trying to find their differences and their similarities. Chatting with them she found they finished each others sentences. Kim was a Chemist, Jen was a Jeweler. Both had problems with their lives. The world couldn’t get its head around identical sisters. Well, not exactly that, she could see what they meant.
Wooden puppets! Who knew they could be alive and walking round the world. Pinnochio had a lot to answer for!
