Personal Narrative: The Genetic Concept Of Being A Twin

471 Words2 Pages

Unlike twins Have you ever seen unlike twins? Me neither, until my sisters were born. When someone mentions the word “twin” our brain immediately visualize two persons or things that are equal, or at least that have many similarities. In this particular case, my sisters are the contrary of everything that our mind is imagining about the genetic concept of being a twin. Afterwards, one day one of them was lost in a park for about 45 minutes. My mom said desperately that she has a twin, but they are so distinct that everyone who looks at the other girl said they have not seen anyone like her. Yet, when my mom look carefully, my lost sister was quietly playing with the daughter of the person she had recently asked. My two sisters are as different as day and night, not only in appearance but also in character. My mother decided to assign totally different names to my sisters.

    “What’s that thing on your face?” was the first thing I heard when meeting a new kid for the first time. Although this type of greeting is generally considered rude, I was never ashamed of my birthmark. My mother had convinced me that it was an “angel kiss”, and that very few babies had the privilege of being kissed by an angel. Those who were, would have a mark forever. At first glance I looked pretty normal as a young boy: two eyes, a nose, a mouth--the usual, but as I met other kids, I realized that they were staring at the bright red birthmark that dominated the left side of my face.
