How many people are there in your family?
My immediate family is quite small. It's just my older step-brother, my mom, my step-dad and me. How about you?
I have a large family. I have three older sisters, my twin sister, a younger brother, and my parents.
I didn't know you were a twin! Are you identical or fraternal?
We're identical. I mean, we look exactly the same, but we complete opposites when it comes to everything else!
Interesting. It must be great having a twin sister. Are you best friends, too?
We used to be really close, but that all changed once she moved to Shanghai. How about your family? You didn't mention to your biological father.
I don't know much about him. He died when I was just a baby. Even though I don't have a blood relationship with my step-father and step-brother, I consider them to be my real family.
What about your step-brother's mother? Does he keep in touch with her?
No, she also died when my step-brother was little. My mother and my step-father met each other shortly after my father died and became good friends. They ended up getting married a few years later.
