I had absolutely no idea that I was once
a twin until I turned 10 years old.
When I was younger I would have dreams
every night that I was a twin. I never felt
the need to mention this to anyone. I used
to dream that my twin and I would talk about
everything and laugh and play and have so
much fun. I had these dreams every night up
until my tenth birthday when the dream I had
was not so nice.
I dreamt that I was in a dark car park
with my family and my twin started running
at me, but I was really scared, it
frightened me.
So the next morning on my tenth birthday,
I told my mum about my scary dream. And for
the first time I explained how I would have
dreams every night that I was a twin. It was
at this point that she told me I was
actually once a twin.
It was that day that the twin dreams
completely stopped. I have not had one
since. I miss the dreams, I would love to
still have them. But I consider the dreams
as my twin trying to help me understand, and
it did.
