“Good morning dear… rise as the sunshine,” a gentle voice appeared in my head. Is it a dream? Suddenly, I felt someone touching my hand. Ah! What a soft hand she had and I wondered who was she? “Wake up, Louise Gernovie or you will late to go to Princeton.” My eyes hardly to open but I knew that was the time for me to leave this fairy land and return to the reality. “Y-Yes, mother… I’m already awake,” I replied with a sweet smile. And my foot drove me to the place where I could get myself fresh and clean, bathroom!
To be the only child of the middle-class family and having most understandable parents has always been a desire of any child in lower-class. So, I am quite lucky because I have both of it and I am very thankful to the God. Yet, being a second-grade student at Academy Princeton has many responsibilities. The academy itself has the name that anyone who studied there would proud of it. Academy Princeton is one of top academy in this country and provided knowledge that a person would only found it when they traveled out from the country. And I was so honored that I could learn in this academy. After thirteen minutes getting order of myself, I finalized my preparations by checking for the second time if there anything that I need to bring to the school today. The aroma of hot coffee pierced into my nose, gave me hint that I should get going downstairs. Until the half of the staircase, I saw my dad reading today newspaper with a cup of hot coffee in his hand. Worked as the head person in bank at the town was uneasy job and because of that, I do not want to burden my dad with little thing of my problem.
Voice of mom interrupted my imagination, “Louise, come darling, let have breakfast together.” Walked towards the dining table, put my bag at another chairs beside me and sat opposite to mom. “Louise, today the result for your mid-term examination will come out right?” asked mom. “Yup, I hope it will come out great. Because father has promised me, if I get best result, he will tell me his biggest secret. Isn't it right father?” Dad just nodded, but mom suddenly gave uncomfortable expression in her face. When I’m asked why, she told me, she had a little head ache due to the heat from yesterday tea party that was held at our neighbor house, Mrs. Crawley.
On the way to academy, I will join with my two best friends, Crystal Mason and Marissa Belton at the end of the road that separated path to our house. Crystal is just like me, born in the middle-class family. To be birth as the last child in the family with distance age from her brother and sister make her received lots of love from her parents. Everything she desire will be fulfilling by her family but this would not make her forget to be kind and respect towards other people. In other way, Merissa was born as the first child from four siblings in lower-class family. Even though, she in lower-class, she also would not let people saw her as a weak person. She had promised herself to change the family status by learning as much as she can in this academy. The three of us may have lots of differences but with have one similarity which is we hold the same principle “Happiness can be found even there no money in this world.”
Academy Princeton was a little chaotic than usual and this situation due to the released of mid-term result. Most of male students dashed to Miller Hall to looks for their mid-term result.
“How do you think it will come out? I mean the result,” asked Merissa.
“I think it will come out great, Mary. Well we have done covered everything, right? So it will come out as much as we have studied,” replied Chrystal.
When thinking about it, we have covered everything in the syllabus for twice. “I agreed with Chris. We have done what we can do, everything just will go smoothly. I still am hoping to get the best result. Seriously, I’m freaky out to know my father’s secret,” I added
The three of us just kept walking towards Miller Halls, the students in front of the result board giving us space to walk through and kept starring at us. I wonder why. I let Chris and Mary to look their results first because I a little back off from the board. After the two of them knew the results, they kept smiling like a flower bloom in the summer. I predicted they have got great result. Then, they pulled me to the front of the board and congrats me…Why? So I looked for my marks and I just want to scream. My face turn out red as a beet and my heart felt like to explode. Thank Goddess I manage to pass thus hold title Top 10 Students. “Now I knew why everyone kept looking at us. This is because among us managed to hold Top 10 Students,” teasing Merissa with large smile.
The hearsay that I have made to Top 10 Students separated easily. The awkward moment is they starred at you without saying anything, like you are doing something wrong. The most obvious person, who annoyed to me, was Carla
Benouve, a girl from upper-class family. She was a fine lady from Carson family, with pleasure attitude and makes everyone so pleased with her. She has beautiful values such as friendly, hard-working person and respects others. She have her own pride and stand by itself even she inherited wealth of her family. I chuckled when thinking why she only being means to me? If I have do anything wrong, I do not think so, because we barely knew each other.
“E-er do you do anything to her? I’m not telling that you have done something bad, but her attitude was so different to you. Just only towards you,” added Merissa.
I sighed. Just for a moment, I could feel my brain stop functioning. I explained, “I can’t think what I’ve done…what make her so annoying with me. Maybe we have too much difference, and this has created a big hole between us. Let her be, and I wishes someday, I have related somehow that would bind us together.”
Ah-ah! Come on time, please speed you’re ticking just for today. I can heard my heart thumping loudly like it want to explode, said my tiny heart when looked at the watch. On the way back from the academy, my mouth being locked, silent like a mute person. Calculated the beating of the heart and the system of human body could not stop thinking what the secret is? Why father agreed to tell me? Urgh! So many question appeared but none of them been answered. When I reached the front door, I heard the conversation between my mom and dad.
“My dear husband, we shouldn't tell her! Please understand the situation.”
“No! We should tell her. She deserves to know it and she have the right. We can’t hide it forever from her. She old and strong enough to hear this.”
Huh- what they talked about? Is it about me? The secret somehow related to me? Without caution, I suddenly open the door.
Paaanng- “Mother! Father! What this all about? What do you want to tell me? Why I shouldn’t know this thing? Can you explain it to me….. I dazed right now,” I cried.
Mom immediately hugged me and she does not want to let go. She told me everything that I would hear from dad will not change her love to me. After each of us has calm, dad told me the secret. I could not believe this and I felt like going inside to another unknown world. Ha-ha! She and I connected to each other. Impossible! Really impossible! Dad said that we will go to her house this weekend to tell this story because he had promised with hers family.
I stayed in my room all the evening, thinking that Carla and I, are actually twin. Being born from the same stomach, same mother but a few second different, make me gone insane. The reason why she was rise by the Carson family because Mrs. Carson could not pregnant anymore after her first lost. That’s why mom gave her child which was Carla to that family. Thinking this make my head heavier, I felt like want to thrown out. It’s too big for me to handle it right now. And this weekend, that means another two day, I have to face Carla’s family and her opinion about this silly thing. My eyes could not open anymore, I just need a rest. Yes a rest, deep rest! “Louise, are you okay? Aoh- you’re burning…” only that voice I can heard but it make me comfortable enough to face this situation.
When I woke up, it already noon.
“Darling- Louise…comes have some porridge. It good for your health and gain backs your energy.”
“Hmm”
“Don’t worry, I've called your academy and stated that you have fever and can’t comes to school for two days. And also I've told Mary and Chris,”
“Can’t go to academy for two days? Why?” “It is because you have high fever, darling. That’s why you don’t go to academy.
“Ohh- so that means, tomorrow is the big day, right?"
“Yes.” Then mom silent and continued her work.
The day that I waited, I don’t think so. I don’t even prepared what I’m going to say. Everyone has gathered in Carson living hall with silent and patient. Mr. Carson took a step and he told Carla everything, from the beginning until the ending which means at this moment. Carla starred at me with a red eyes and I know her feeling about this. Mad, angry and unaccepted! Carla makes a move by running towards the outside. “Mother..father..Mr. and Mrs. Carson…. Let me talk to her. I know how she feels right now because I've had it before,” and I take my move.
“Carla, I know how you feel but this is the truth, you and I, are twin and this wouldn't change the way they are,” I shouted while running towards her.
“That what you think! You got everything you want. Friends, intelligent and people always impressed towards you. Me! I only have my family name, my mama and daddy. Nothing else!” cried Carla. She has no attention to stop running, and I speed my running as fast as I can to chase her.
“No, Carla! You have me… you have two families now…. No matter what, I love you because you’re my twin. The only twin I had in this world,”
Carla stood suddenly and cried, “Re-real-ly? You l-lo-ve me?”
“Huh-huh… yes… yes because you my only sister in this world,”“Sob-sob Louise….”
“CARLA !!”
BANG !!
******************************************************************************
“Oh my, how my Louise turn out like this,” mom asked with glooming tears.
“It my fault, ee-erk mother. I didn’t notice that I’m standing at the middle of the road. And the car that passed by at that time was in full speed, the driver fail to push the break in time. Louise did that to save me. I’m so sorry,” said Carla with guilty expression.
“There is nothing to be sorry for. What had just happened, have united our family together. And now you have two families that love you. I only wish now that Louise will fine and together with us,” said mom.
A few hours later........
The doctor went out and told my parents and Carson family, the operation went out good and I more stables right now. After a few weeks later, I recovered fully from my accident but only one thing that does not recovered and will not be. A scar behind my hand but I love that scar. A scar that have story to tell.
Everything going smoothly, I came back to academy and start my studied. My friend worried me so much and when they saw me, they screamed like seeing a ghost. Ha-ha, I just laugh. Ah! Before I forget, the past few weeks, we like dog and cat but now we are the instruments that make the song become harmony. Carla and I was close together, so Carla with my two best friends. There nothing that can tear us up and I hope we can enjoy our life together. Yup! There are still some students in the school not believed us until now but that’s the reality. A stranger not even acquaintance will be your most close friend and the best part is being your twin. Family traits will never separate family members.
THE END
