Who: Lili and Keke When: Thursday, February 16th, morning Where: The student cafe at Liberty University What: The two girls finally meet, and are amazed at how similar they really are. ( The similiarities are uncanny~ )
Lili's eyes finally reached the young girl in the corner and the green orbs grew larger than they already were. That must be KeKe, there was no mistaking it, hopefully. Really, for all Lili knew, KeKe could be the girl chatting away on her cellphone by the window, or the tall woman in the 4-inch heels. But Lili had a feeling that the young blonde girl, sitting quietly in the corner, was KeKe. It was afterall, what Lili would have been doing. And if they really were really as similar as Willem said, it would only make sense.
Warily, Lili approached the table, both hands clinging to the strap of her bag that slung around her shoulder. And although the closer she got, the more sure she was that this was the girl, Lili still didn't want to embarrass herself by talking to the wrong girl, while the real KeKe watched in confusion from afar. So with an unstable smile Lili removed one hand from her bag and waved slightly. "U-um, hallo. I'm Lili. Are you perhaps, KeKe?"
Lili didn't mean to sound so unsure of herself, but it was a new person, and you couldn't expect much from her.
KeKe watched a small blond girl walking over to her and she knew it had to be Lili. The similarities between she and the other girl were uncanny. But KeKe however, couldn't bring herself to make the first contact. She was too nervous about how these meeting would pan out.
KeKe felt a little more calm as the other girl walked up to the table looking as nervous as she felt, clutching at her bag. KeKe wished she was outgoing enough to say something and ease the other girls' discomfort.
The girl waved slightly "U-um hallo. I'm Lili. Are you perhaps, KeKe?"
KeKe let out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding as the girl introduced herself. KeKe smiled weakly "Hallo, yes I'm KeKe. It's nice to meet you."
KeKe realized the girl was still standing next to the table. "Oh! Please sit down." KeKe gestured quickly at the other chair at the table.
Almost in sync with KeKe, Lili let out a sigh of relief and took the seat across from the girl. A more friendlier but still restrained smile appeared as she gave herself an invisible pat on the back for successfully finding Willem's sister.
The other girl seemed just as if not more nervous as she was. Perhaps they really were as alike as Willem said.
"It is nice to meet you as well! I suppose this...is a bit awkward now, isn't it?" Two young, blonde, girls who are both shy, quiet and afraid of meeting new people. The word awkward was almost an understatement.
KeKe was happy to see that the girl really did seem to be just like her. She knew she could trust her big brother.
It really was awkward this meeting. KeKe fidgeted in her seat. She knew she shouldn't be so nervous the girl wouldn't think her silly or any of the usual things that happened when she meet new people. She was just as nervous as she was.
"I'm sorry, I'm just not very good with meeting new people." KeKe smiled a bit wider "but I am glad to meet you Willem has told me so much about you."
Lili sat up a bit straighter as KeKe apologized, a bit perplexed as to why she was doing so. In the back of the girl's mind however, she knew she would have been doing the same thing in this situation. She always found herself apologizing for occurrences that weren't exactly her fault, or anyone's fault for that matter. But here, it was KeKe doing the apologizing. Another check on the list of similarities.
"Oh no no! Don't apologize, I'm not very good about it either." Lili folded her hands in her lap and felt her own smile grow as she saw KeKe's. Even with the awkward factor still there, Lili was at least a bit more comfortable now.
"Oh, yes, Wilm! He told me a lot about you and your sister as well. Alicia, correct?" She stopped and thought for a moment, hoping she had remembered the elder sister's name. "Wilm mentioned something about pastries as well if I remember right."
"Yes Alicia and I live together. On the same floor as Wilm actually." KeKe was feeling much better about this meeting. She was beginning to like Lili more and more.
She laughed "of course Wilm would mention pastries. I like to bake pastries and I work at the bakery. I always make sure to give Wilm pastries."
KeKe was very eager to get to know Lili more "Do you work anywhere?"
Lili figured that Willem had been a fan of his sisters baking. He only mentioned it almost every time she was brought up. Well, that and the fact that Lili was a lot like KeKe. This statement was obviously holding true, as Lili noticed many of the same habits between them. And because of this, she felt the meeting would go along more smoothly than she had thought.
"Baking must be fun! And from what Wilm says, you are really good at it!" Lili quickly pondered the differences between her job and KeKe's. A bakery was probably quite peaceful most of the time. While Theatricality was usually bustling with action. Sometimes it was nice, other times, it could be tiring.
"I work at Theatricality. A costume and clothing shop ran by Gilbert Beilschmidt." It almost felt like she had rehearsed the line. "Have you heard of it?"
"Photography." Lili nodded at this. Photography was definitely Lili's passion and anyone could tell just by the way she spoke of it. Each photo she took gave a sense of satisfaction to the girl. And a good photo was almost as exhilarating as a roller coaster.
"It's really a lot of fun. How about you? What are you studying?" Lili guessed that it would have something to do with baking. She seemed to really enjoy it and her brother raved about her pastries.

"No I've never heard of it. But it does sound like fun. Probably much more exciting than working at the bakery. What are you studying?"
KeKe was eager to find out more about her 'twin'.
