Twice As Nice:Leila and Bella

Lelia is on the left; Bella is on the right. 

Evangeline went to a little's birthday party and there met fraternal twins (different fertilized eggs) who looked remarkably similar which is not the norm. There names are Leila and Bella, Leila being older by 8 minutes.

Their TwinningIt sound bite story recorded shows how parallel their lives are as twins; especially with relationships. They had various "mystical TwinningIt moments" where for example Leila shared that she once had a boyfriend who owned a motorcycle and by coincidence at the same dating time, Bella's boyfriend had one too. 

Another experience included both boyfriends having tattoos and cars during the same time when they were younger. And so it goes where they even dated men who were similar in appearance/ character and profession at similar times. How strange that these little things would be happening through out their lives. The same pattern reoccurred in marriage. 

Bella shares that Leila was married for 5 years and she was with her partner for 10 years. One morning Bella's partner stated his glass was half empty. As she stepped out of the room a sudden realization hit her, that her partner might be gay. She returned to him and asked him if this was true; with tears he said "I think i am".

Hearing Bella's story Leila who had just moved into the spare room in her own house due to her marital relationship being in stress, thinks of asking her husband the same question. His response to her question was an abrupt "no". Not a week later her husband had a guy staying in his room with the door closed which was unusual. He later confessed to have fallen in love with this man.

Both their husbands declared to be gay within two weeks of each other. They were both mystified at the chances of their relationships being so similar, all they could do was laugh at all the coincidences they have experienced separately but together in a way we can only state as a TwinningIt connection. 

As they were recounting their stories it was strange to see as an outsider how twins behave, the closeness and the ability to share and talk freely with one another. It often makes me wonder how others view our interactions as twins. We have touched on this in a previous post: I choose you

The story focused on the similarity of Leila and Bella's relationships and how parallel twins lives can be.
