It is 7:00 in the morning, and you can hear is Olivia and Sophia going at it once again.

“Hurry up and get out of the bathroom!” Sophia said. “Your not pretty! What could you possibly need the time for?” Olivia said.
“That’s enough! I’m tired of you two arguing. You’re sisters, so start acting like it! Mom said.
Olivia and Sophia got quiet as mom left the room, but then Olivia walks away into their room, and as she slams the door she says “You’re still ugly!” As Sophia gets herself together, tears roll down her face.
When Olivia comes down the stairs Sophia attempts to try and talk, so they can fix things but Olivia shuts her down by saying “I don’t want to hear it, let’s go!”
When they pull up to the school, once again Olivia says “Remember. When we leave this car we don’t speak!”
Sophia walks into the school, and everybody starts to laugh and say rude things about her, including her sister.
Amber (Olivia’s best friend) says “I can’t believe you’re twins. How are you so pretty and Sophia’s just so… ewww?”
Olivia replies by saying “That’s not my sister! She makes me sick!” While Olivia is saying this stuff it just so happens that Sophia is standing right behind her. Sophia breaks down and runs to the bathroom, where she continued ball her eyes out. When Sophia exits the bathroom there’s a girl named Ashley handing out invitations for her party.
As Sophia is walking, Ashley approaches her and says “Give this invitation to your sister.”
“Do i have one too?” Sophia asks.
“You’ll never get an invitation! So next time keep your mouth shut, and just do what I say!” Ashley replies.  Sophia is furious, so she storms off.
When Sophia arrives home, Olivia begins to scream at her and call her names. As Sophia is standing there Olivia sees the invitation in her hands and says “Hey, GIVE ME MY INVITATION NOW!” and snatches it.
Sophia tries to explain that she was trying to give it to her, but Olivia cuts her off and says, “You’re a thief and that’s all you’ll ever be.”
Sophia storms off, when she gets in her room she starts rambling on and on saying, “ I’ve had enough, I’ve got to do something.” Right when she says that, those devious little wheels that nobody thought she could ever have start to spin in her head.
Suddenly Olivia busts in the room and starts to yell. Sophia gets very frustrated and makes a decision to grab her, tie her up and throw her in the closet.
“What are you doing?” Olivia says
“I’m going to the party” Sophia replies
“Do you really think you can get away with this?” Olivia says with doubt.
“I know I can, all I need is a little bit of makeup and hair product. We’re twins remember?” Sophia shoots back as she shuts and lock the closet door.
Sophia begins to get ready, and surprisingly she’s really good. Nobody would ever know, who she really is. She walks down the stairs and her parents say “Hey, Olivia. Where’s your sister?”
“Oh, she’s in the room studying, she told me to tell you that she might make some noise when she gets frustrated, but don’t don’t bother her if she does.” Sophia said (acting as Olivia). Sophia walks out the door and makes her way to the party.
Back at the house Olivia is tied up, and she realizes how ad she treats her sister. As she thinks about all the horrible things she has said and done to her sister, tears begin to roll down her face and in that moment she comes to the conclusion, that she needs to fix things immediately! Olivia starts banging and stomping so loud you would’ve thought it was a thunderstorm.
Twenty minutes later, her parents are tired of hearing and seeing their lampshade shake, so they rush up to the room to see what’s going on. When Olivia hears the door open, she begins to kick the closet door. Her mom runs to the closet and yanks the door open.
“Oh, my god! What happened?” mom exclaims.
“Sophia tied me up,and went to a party posing as me, but don’t be mad at her. She had every right to do what she did, I’ve treated her terribly wrong, and I regret it with all my heart.” Olivia replied.
“Well where is the party? We have to get her before somebody figures out she’s not you!” mom says in a panic.
Olivia and her parents run down the stairs, into the car, and take off speeding in a flash!
Back at the party Sophia is having a great time, until Olivia’s best friend approaches her and begins to say “something’s different about you.”
“There is?” Sophia says getting a little nervous
“Yeah, do you have makeup on?” Amber asks as she reaches her hand out to Sophia’s face and wipes off the makeup that reveals her unbearable skin.
Amber gasps and says, “You’re not Olivia! You’re Sophia!”
Sophia attempts to run, but they won't let her out. Just as they’re locking the doors Olivia bursts in to save her sister.
Amber approaches Olivia and says, “Do you see how pathetic your sister is?”
“Hey, watch your mouth ! That’s my sister you're talking about!” Olivia exclaims! Olivia reaches for Sophia’s hand and says, “Come on sis, let's hang out.”
Sophia smiles and holds on tight to Olivia’s hand as they make their to the car.
Now that Olivia and Sophia have solved their problems, they hang out all the time. They even dress alike, I guess miracles really can happen.
