MY TWINNIE

"What the hell?! She looks just like Lilian "

"Isn't that Lilian? But Lilian walked in few minutes ago, right? "

"No, l don't think so. It's her lookalike! "

"No way! That's definitely Lilian but there's something different about her. Her hair! "

"It's so not Lilian "

"Lilian's lookalike! "

Different statements emerged from the students as Lily walked into the school's compound through the galantic gate.

"Someone's lookalike? "She thought and chuckled. "That's crazy .. she's no one's lookalike "she sighed and headed for the hallway.

She's been here before so heading to her class won't be hard for her at all.

"Lilian? "

She heard different voices call out as their eyes bore into her body. She was like the center of attraction at that moment.

What's going on? Who's this Lilian they are mistaking her for?

***

Shirley rushed into the class, panting heavily. She placed her hands on her thighs, breathing heavily.

Lilian, who was busy taking pictures on her phone, looked up at her. She scoffed and continued snapping.

"What's wrong? Why did you race down here like you are being chased by someone or something? "She asked, irritated.

"Lilian, You really need to hear what l'm about to tell you "Shirley stated, breathlessly.

"Really? Or you just wanna gossip, huh? "

Shirley frowned and snatched the phone from Lilian's grip.

"The hell, shirley?! What's wrong with you? "Lilian yelled and spranged up.

"I'm here to give you the best .... not really the best tho but it's kinda shocking. Really shocking .. you won't believe it "Shirley voiced out and Lilian stared at her, cynically.

"Okay, tell me. I'm sure it must be hot since you're so eager to tell me "she stated and sat down.

"Isn't that Lilian? So who's the new girl who look exactly like her? "

Lilian heard as two girls whispered amongst themselves as they trailed alongside her classroom.

"My lookalike. What are they talking about? "Lilian thought as she arched up her brows.

"That's what l've been trying to tell you! There's this new girl who just entered the school compound and she's just like you .. your lookalike! "Shirley half yelled and Lilian's eyes widened.

"My lookalike .. that's crazy! "She stated and walked out of the class.

"You really need to see her, Lilian. The only difference between you girls is that she's got long kinky hair "Shirley went on as she trailed behind her.

" Wait! Lilian, look at her. She's heading towards our direction "Shirley whispered and stopped walking.

"Oh my! She looks just like my splitting image. Jeez! "Lilian exclaimed, in thoughts.

Lily and Lilian stopped walking, staring at each other like they saw a ghost or something.

Lilian frowned and walked towards her. "So you're the Lilian everyone is speaking about and mistaking me for, huh? "Lily started and she scoffed.

"How come you look so much like me, huh? Saw me on social media and decided to undergo a plastic surgery to look just like me? "Lilian asked, dramatically staring at her nails and crossed her hands afterwards.

"No way, silly! With your makeup and everything, you look more like a clown. Your lashes, jeez .. i don't even wanna talk about that. Are you trying to entice someone? Too bad! Let me burst your bubbles, with your makeup and everything, he's not gonna feel an inch of love towards you but complete hate "Lily rasped and winked at Lilian before walking away.

"Damn! "Students around yelled, ridiculing Lilian.

"Shut up, you all! Fools! "Lilian screamed, boiling in anger and walked away.

"Hey, brats! You better not speak ill of her else .. "Shirley stopped talking and ran after Lilian.

"Lilian, wait up! "She yelled but Lilian didn't stop.

LILY

"Meet your new classmate, Lily Roberts! "The teacher introduced me to the students and l smiled and waved at them.

"You're welcome, Lily! "They said in unison and l chuckled.

"So this is your new class, Lily. You can choose any seat of your choice "The teacher said and l looked around.

I saw a seat at the far end of the class and thought it's gonna be a great seat.

"Alright, l've found the perfect seat. Thank you, Mrs Robinson "Lily stated and left to her seat.

"Alright, class. Bring out your books, lessons starts now "

I settled down and opened my bag to bring out my textbooks.

Lesson goes on ..

The teacher stepped out of the class and l sighed. It was a really long class but not too bad on my first day of school.

"Hi "i heard and looked up.

"Hey "i waved back, smiling. The girl was average with long platinum hair, she looked nice.

"I'm Carla "she said and sat on desk close by.

"Lily "

"I know but jeez, you are like a splitting image of Lilian. You look so much like her "Carla exclaimed, flabbergasted and i scoffed.

I don't get why they are on and on about this Lilian! Is she a celebrity or something?

"Yeah. I guess we kinda look alike but we are not related in any way "l answered with a smile.

Lilian stepped into class and l scoffed. She began walking towards me and she stood right in front of me.

"You are sitting on my seat, Lily! Get off right now! "She retorted, angrily and l grunted.

"Well, your name wasn't inscribed on the chair, was it? Lilian, please leave my sight, you make me sick "l responded, irritated and she gasped.

She raised to her hand to hit me but l held it, firmly. I hurled her arm and she fell, backwards.

The students gasped.

"You must be crazy to think you'd raise your hand to me and l will do nothing about it. I'm not the type you can bully just when you want to, Lilian. Stay within your limits, clown! "l scorned and smiled before walking out.

Carla trailed behind me.

"Lily! "She called and l stopped walking and turn away to face her.

"What is it, Carla? "I responded, and crossed my arms.

"Lily, you shouldn't have done what you just did. Lilian is not easy to deal with, she won't let you off so easily, trust me "she rasped and l rolled my eyes.

"Are you on her side or my side? Don't you hate me or something? So you are her fangirl, right? "

"Of course not, i'm on your side. We are friends now "she replied with a smile.

"Better. So can you give me a tour round the school? It would really help "l stated, looking around and she nodded.

"Of course, let's go "

LILIAN

I stood on my feet, boiling with anger. That new b*tch hasn't seen the last of me. She dared to push me .. just she wait and see what l do to her.

"Stop staring, you cowards "i yelped, clenching my fists. I kicked the chair in anger and my foot crooked.

"Ouch! "I wailed and the class giggled. "This is all your fault, Lily and l won't let you off that easily "

LILY

I smiled, staring at the lockers' room. The students in this school sure are numerous. I bumped into someone and lost my balance but the person held my hand and pulled me towards himself.

I could feel it was a guy from his masculine chest. "Lilian, are you okay? You are not hurt, are you? "He asked, as he pulled away.

I was mesmerized by his beauty. He looked so charming with his dark hair and sapphire eyes, he is the most handsome guy l've seen so far.

"Lilian? "He called, shaking me and l shook my head.

"Oh, yeah. I'm okay, l'm fine "i rasped and itched the nape of my neck with a awkward smile.

"That's good. I'm sorry, l didn't see you coming "he replied and l nodded.

"Yeah. Sorry, l wasn't looking either "

"You look different and natural, today. You changed your hairstyle, are you okay? "he said in admiration and l giggled.

"Lily! "I heard and turned to see Carla. She rushed towards us and l turned to see him arch his brows.

"Lily, l was looking all over for you "she rasped and l shrugged. "Jeremy, you are back "she exclaimed, referring to the guy.

Jeremy, nice name for a handsome and sweet guy like him!

"Yes. I came back yesterday "

"Alright. Well, this is my new friend, Lily. She's a new student. Lily, meet Jeremy .. "

"Wait a sec! She's Lilian so she's not a new student and when did you girls start getting along? "He asked and trailed to his locker.

"Well, that's because she's not Lilian but Lily. She looks just like Lilian but she isn't Lilian "Carla explained to him and he chuckled, softly.

"Carla, you are drunk. I can see that "he said, closed his locker and walked away.

"I knew he wouldn't believe me. Wait till he sees for himself "she muttered and l held her arm.

"Who is he, Carla? Tell me "i whispered and she chuckled.

"Don't tell me you are falling for him, Lily "

"Just tell me already "i jibbed and she nodded.

"He's Jeremy, son to the owner of this school .. i think that's all "she drawled, and l smiled.

"Is he married? "

"Married? "Carla said and laughed. "Married, that's ridiculous. He's a student, remember? "She said and walked away.

"Oh damn! What the hell is going on with me? No way .. i can't let this thing get into my head "l thought and palmed my forehead.

"Lily, are you coming or not? "Carla yelled from a distance.

"Coming! "

JEREMY

Carla is crazy, it's impossible to have two Lilians. That's crazy!. I will give this gift to Lilian later and confess my feelings for her some day but not today.

She's getting pretty by the day and i don't want to lose the chance of being with her. I saw Lilian walking towards him and crooked my brows.

What in the world is going on here?

"Jeremy, you are back "Lilian exclaimed and hugged me.

"Lilian, you look so different now and how did you get here so quickly? I thought l saw you in the locker room a while ago "l rasped as Lilian pulled away from me.

"What are you talking about? "She asked, perplexed.

"Told you, Jeremy "l heard from behind me and turned to see Carla and the Lilian i saw in the locker room.

I turned to see Lilian who was standing close to me. "Wait, what is going on? Two Lilians, how is this possible? "
