Persephone Hera James was born on January 1st at 12:03 a.m. She was 6 lbs. 6 oz, 17 inches long. Persephone is a twin. Her sister Andromeda Athena James was born on December 31st at 11:58 p.m. She was 7 lbs. 3 oz. and 20 inches long. Born in different months and different days in different years, it sculpted two individual personalities.  Andromeda grew up tall and thin. Her body was that of an athlete. She was popular and outgoing. Persephone was two inches shorter and, at one time, fifty pounds heavier than her sister. She was smart, but she preferred to keep to herself. While her sister exuded confidence, she remained confined. Andromedia had a string of good-looking guys lining up to be with her. Persephone was not into dating. She was more about going to bed with a textbook than a guy. Typically, twins stick together. They have an unbreakable bond. They may have a secret language or be able to finish each other's sentences. This was not the case with the James sisters. They did whatever they could to be their own people.It was the summer before their first year of college. Andromeda, more commonly known as Annie, had a full gymnastic scholarship. Persephone, more commonly known as Perri, had a full academic scholarship. Both girls were going to Pepperbrook College in Kennedy, Tennessee.The only thing they had in common was their love for their big brother, Holden Pollex James Jr. He was two years older and an extremely good-looking guy that Andromeda's friends drooled over. Holden had also received an athletic scholarship to play baseball. Holden was very protective of Perri. Annie could take care of herself. He knew that Perri lived in her sister's shadow. He tried numerous times to help her break through, but she just never seemed very receptive to the idea. He knew all she wanted to do was go to school and get her degree so she could go to another school to get another degree, which would lead her to her final destination of becoming a psychiatrist. He was determined to help his sister have an epic summer before she started with a full class load and her full-time job.The James family had money. Lots of it. Perri felt guilty accepting her scholarship since she knew her parents already had college funds for their children. They had enough for each of them to afford any school, anywhere. Their parents were very rarely home. And very rarely home at the same time. Their mother, Charlotte James, was a neurosurgeon at a prestigious Phellem-Phillips teaching hospital. Their father, Holden Pollux James Sr., was a tenured professor of Greek studies and the head of the history department at Tennent Carlson College. Annie didn't mind. Her parents gave her full access to hers to use as she pleased. Holden used his to help pay Bohdi's tuition, and Perri decided to invest hers. Because, well, she's Perri. Holden had a best friend named Bohdi Patrick O'Neill. Bohdi was the target of Annie's attention. While she could have anyone she desired, she wanted him. Bohdi never seemed very interested. He was a talented basketball player. Unfortunately, the school he wanted to attend didn't offer him a scholarship. It was his father's alma mater, and he was set on going. His parents divorced when he was young. He had learned that his mother had been cheating on his father when he found out he was going to be a big brother to a half-sister. His father was destroyed. It took him a long time for him to crawl out of his depression; by the time he did, Bohdi was already used to being on his own. He spent a lot of time with Holden and their other friends, Lewis and Jake. He also spent a lot of time with the twins. He always had a soft spot for Perri. He thought that she was the more beautiful of the sisters. He adored her sense of humor and envied her intelligence. No matter how hard he tried, she never gave him the time of day, even though Holden had given him the all-clear.🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒🕒Thank you for finding and choosing my story.
