amusing incident
It was April Fools’ Day. My identical twin brother, Jack, and I thought of a mischievous trick. As we were in different classes, we decided to exchange places and pretend to be with each other for a day.
I walked into Jack’s class confidently and mingled with his friends. Nobody suspected that I was not Jack. Only our parents could tell us apart.
One of Jack’s classmates happened to celebrate his birthday that day and had brought a big ice cream cake to class. Of course, I took Jack’s share of the ice cream cake.
What a treat! Jack’s classmates tried hard to make one another the biggest fool of the day. However, I was careful not to be tricked. Jack’s closest friends were surprised and remarked, “Jack is strangely alert today.”
I almost burst out in laughter but managed to keep a straight face. Pretending to be Jack seemed fun until Jack’s teacher scolded me for failing a maths test.
It was so shameful! However, instead of feeling angry, I felt sorry for Jack and decided to help him with his maths in the future.
At the end of the day, Jack and I told each other what happened. The next day, we laughed at our classmates for being fools not to smell a rat.
