Twin sisters

Something very strange happened to Mary. She never knew she had a twin sister until she started university! Mary was born in
Mexico. Her parents could not look after her so she went to live with a family in Manhattan, USA. When Mary was 20 years old, she
started university in Long Island. She enjoyed her university life. But one day she was walking home from class, and a student
smiled at her. “Hello Lucia!” said the student. “I’m not Lucia,” said Mary.

This happened to Mary again and again. People Mary didn’t know kept calling her Lucia. It was very strange. One day, when a
woman called her Lucia, Mary asked “Why do you keep calling me Lucia?” The woman replied, “You look like my friend Lucia. You
have the same face and the same hair. Is Lucia your sister?” Mary said that she did not have a sister called Lucia. But she was
interested in this girl who looked like her. Finally she asked someone for Lucia’s email address.

When Mary wrote to Lucia, she found out that they both had the same birthday, they looked the same and both of them were from
