V 2 Sister

Sister
Kendra and Kim are close twin sister. When they were younger they did everything together but since high school that closeness start to fade. Kim became more popular and conformed leaving her art and her sister behind so she could be accepted. Kendra was the different she is a little darker some would call here emo. Unlike her sister she can not draw she can write. Even though this is the 21st century in their small town if you don’t conform or play at least one sport you are consider a freak. The scene takes place in Kim and Kendra bedroom where Kendra is reading the Grim Brother Friary Tale.
