I would like to share. I am Simi and my twin sister is Nimi. We both look very identical. The bond we have together is incredible. When I think something and am about to say it, Nimi would be saying it.

When we look at anyone we both notice the same thing. We have taken the same course to study. Once in class we both got the same marks and were first in class. If I am incomplete in something she will complete it.

Once when we were small, Nimi pulled one girls ear and the girl started crying. The teacher came shouting at me and when she asked me about the situation I understood that Nimi must have done something so I answered whatever came to my mind. I didn't even know the situation. Imagine later I told her about the incidence and she said "I was about to say the same excuse."

I was wonderstruck. Even in our grade marks we both got the same marks. People were asking whether our souls got interchanged.

Once I was in my room doing my work and she was in some other room, but when I was doing my work I felt very uneasy and exhausted.  I couldn't understand what was happening. Then I thought of telling Nimi about it. When I went to her she was sitting there blank. I asked her what was wrong and she said she just got beatings from my parents. Then I realized what went within me!

I have always thought it's good to have a twin. I can assure you one thing, your twin is the most understanding person in this world. You don't even have to tell your twin why you are sad, she will understand it by herself. It's always wonderful the way people stare at you, the way they ask, "Are you Nimi or Simi."

Moreover, our birthday is on Children's Day .....wonderful!
