Jacob and Jacoba

JACOB AND JACOBA
Once upon time, in a land not far, were a born prince and his baby sister. Their names given were Jacob and Jacoba. Now the tale goes that Jacob was a very insisting child. His sister Jacoba is his twin and cries all day and night. When four months of life had transgress, they had grown profoundly intelligent. Here’s the narrative!
***********
Jacob is a very insisting child. His sister, Jacoba, is his twin and cries all day and night. They are infants with the age of four months now. They will grow to be healthy children after a while. Yet their faith will bring their empire. The reliance will come from far away. Thus, all will deceive the family of the infants. The struggle will not be perceived as such and Jacob is as smart as a whip. If there is no way for him to find out, his commitment will be in self. Therefore, he will succeed without anyone's help. Jacoba has sensed wealth. She desires to be famous. She is very creative and loyal to her blood and therefore, she will define her empire. Nevertheless, her twin must achieve to and that is when she discovered her royal blood. It was her belief in who she would become. Now if this story goes in a twist, Jacoba's success will be similar to Jacob's. However, if this tale is told correctly, Jacob has discovered his empire directly. Nevertheless, if this is just the imagination, the enrichment of each will be shared throughout creation. Nonetheless, is not to be discussed. This will manifest before all of us. Although Jacoba is now Empress in 1600 A.D., her brother Jacob has been crowned King. The endowment was given to them through a spell cast on their parents when they were merely ten. The harmony of this was it was never remove and strangely, their origin became under their ruling. Sovereign the people said they were to Empress Jacoba in the North and East and their Ruler was King Jacob in the South and West. Their people never told them why but soon they life would change before their naked eyes. Amidst tranquility and peace, a metamorphosis happens to each. Neither knew that they had change and therefore, they bond did not remain. Resemblance they kept yet, neither saw this and discord becomes present with each. A war would transpire and unity will become more desired. Would concord end the war and if so, would Jacob and Jacoba remember they are sister and brother? The aphorism to these twins' lives is that family is always a cease-fire! Amity ______________________________________________________________| Verlena S. Walker ©November 01, 2013
