Kambal sina Bulilit at Kulilit ngunit

magkaibang-magkaiba ang ugali nila. Kaya
madalas nag-aaway sila.

Palaging mabango si Bulilit dahil araw-araw

siyang naliligo, nagpapalit ng damit at
nagsusuklay ng buhok. Si Kulilit naman ay
mabaho dahil hindi nagbibihis at di naliligo.

Malinis ang mga kamay ni Bulilit. Lagi siyang

naghuhugas lalo na kapag bago at
pagkatapos kumakain. Madalas din niyang
pinuputol ang kaniyang mga kuko. Ayaw
niya ng matulis at mahabang kuko.

Si Kulilit naman ay walang pakialam sa sarili.

Hindi siya naghuhugas ng kamay kahit siya
ay kumakain. At lalong hindi niya pinuputol
ang kaniyang mga kuko.

Mapuputi at matitibay ang mga ngipin ni

Bulilit dahil nagsisipilyo siya pagkatapos
kumain. Sira-sira, butas-butas at naninilaw
naman ang mga ngipin ni Kulilit kasi mahilig
siya sa matatamis na pagkain gaya ng
tsokolate, ice cream, lollipop at kendi.

Malusog na bata si Bulilit. Umiinom siya ng

gatas at kumakain ng gulay, isda at prutas
ngunit si Kulilit ay sakitin. Puro karne, hotdog
at ham ang kaniyang kinakain. Mahilig din
siya sa junk foods at softdrinks.

Tumutulong si Bulilit sa paglilinis ng kanilang

bahay. Si Kulilit naman ay hindi tumutupad
sa mga gawaing iniaatas sa kaniya. Dahil
dito, palagi siyang napapagalitan ng
kanilang nanay.

Oras na sa pagpasok sa paaralan. Mabango

at bihis na si Bulilit. Ngunit si Kulilit ay
kagigising pa lang at tinatamad maligo.

“Maligo at magbihis kana, Kulilit. Hihintayin

kita! Papasok na tayo sa paaralan,” Sabi ni
Bulilit sa kapatid. Ngunit, sa halip na makinig,
nagagalit pa si Kulilit. “Pumasok kang mag-
isa! Ayokong pumasok!” wika ni Kulilit.

Pumasok si Bulilit sa paaralan na mag- isa. Si

Kulilit naman ay naglalaro ng tagu-taguan
kasama ang mga kaibigan.

Nang nalaman ito ng

nanay, tinawag niya si
Kulilit. “Kulilit! Kulilit!
Umuwi ka na at maligo.
Mahuhuli ka na sa
pagpasok sa paaralan!”
Kaya, umuwi si Kulilit sa
bahay at naliligo.

Habang siya ay naglalakad papunta sa

paaralan, nasalubong niya ang kaniyang
mga kalaro. “Kulilit, sumama ka sa amin!
Maglalaro kami sa tabing-ilog, “anyaya ng
mga kaibigan.

Sumama si Kulilit sa mga kaibigan.

tanghalian.

Samantala, masayang-masaya si Bulilit na

umuwi galing sa paaralan. Dala niya ang
kanyang sertipiko bilang nangunguna sa
unang markahan ng kanilang klase. “Nanay!
Nanay! Tingnan mo, ako ang nangunguna sa
klase!” ang maligayang balita niya sa nanay.

Niyakap ng nanay si Bulilit sa sobrang tuwa

niya sa anak. “Panatilihin mo ang pagiging

anak,” wika ng nanay kay Bulilit.

Kinabukasan, pagkagising ni Bulilit, nagulat siya

nang Makita si Kulilit na nanginginig at umiiyak.
“Bulilit.. Bulilit.. Tulungan mo ako.. Masakit ang
ulo ko.,” ang mahinang sabi ni Kulilit.
Inalalayan ni Bulilit sa pagbangon ang kapatid
at naramdaman niya na nilalagnat ito.

“Isa, dalawa, tatlo, apat!” bilang ni Bulilit.

Apat na araw na ay hindi pa rin
gumagaling si Kulilit. Kaya nagpasya ang
nanay na dalhin si Kulilit sa ospital.
