The D Girls

Daisy and Daria were much alike,had they chosen to admit it, but neither did. If you suffered a misfortune or downfall, they both would step up to offer help, voice concern. They loved animals, fine fabrics, and physical activity, though not one specific sport. It made sense, since they were sisters, that they would share characteristics. Even when Daisy and Daria reached middle age, though one had dark hair and the other blonde, though Daria was 5'9 and Daisy 5'5, people asked them if they were twins. As younger women they would smile, say no, and say isn't it odd you would ask that. Someone else asked me that just the other day.

Now that she is older, Daisy will sometimes simply answer yes, to Daria's tight-lipped smile. We are just sisters, not twins, she corrects in her don't-mind-my-whimsical-sister voice. She used to be fun.
