Chapter 5
Antonia: You don�t have to be so mean to her mom. (Cough) I�ll never understand why you hate her so much. We are twins you know.
Maria: (thinks about what Tony has said) You know�you�re right. JULIA�COME OUT HERE!
Julia: What now?
Maria: I�ve just thought of the way you can help out your sister.
Julia: How can I do that?
Maria: Simple�you take her place.
Antonia and Julia: What?!
Maria: You two are twins�no one knows you two are twins and everyone says you two look exactly alike.
Julia: There is no way I�m going to go along with this. Besides�wouldn�t people notice a difference in our personalities?
Maria: You have no personality dear.
Julia: You sure aren�t making your case any better mother.
Maria: (walks over to Julia) It would only be a few weeks until Tony was feeling better. Can�t you just do this for her? It would mean a lot to the both of us?
Antonia: Only for a week or two sis.
Julia: (looks at Tony�then at her mother�and then back at Tony who is coughing her head off) (sighs) Alright.
Maria: Thank you honey. I�m proud of you.
Julia: (looks at her mother) Yeah sure.
Maria: Now first off about that hair�and no more eating candy bars.
Julia: That�s it deals off.
Maria: (grabs her daughter�s arm) No no�come on we have to get you fixed.
Julia: Fixed?
(A few hours later, Julia and Maria come back from their outing. Antonia is lying on the couch watching TV)
Julia: (coming in the door) I can�t believe you did this to me.
Antonia: (sits up and looks at her sister. Her eyes widen) You�re hair is red!
Julia: YA THINK! And it�s curly!
Antonia: (laughs) You look like me now.
Julia: That�s the point. (Sits next to her sister and starts to cry) What have I gotten myself into?
Antonia: Did you forget who you get to date?
Julia: (still crying) Huh?
Antonia: Remember�I�m�I mean you�re dating a certain Backstreet Boy that you are in love with.
Julia: (all happy) OH MY GOD!
(Knock at the door)
Maria: (looks through the peephole) Oh god�it�s AJ.
Julia: (squeaks)
Maria: Antonia go to your room. We can�t have him see you.
Antonia: Why don�t we just tell him what�s going on?
Maria: NO! Now go!
(Antonia grabs her stuff and heads for her room)
Maria: Julia answer the door and remember you are Antonia now.
Julia: Right I�m Tony. (Gets up and answer the door)
AJ: Hi.
Julia: Hi. (Giggles)
AJ: Are you feeling better?
Julia: Yeah.
AJ: I just came by to tell you there�s a show tonight�if you want to make an appearance.
Maria: (runs over) She�d love to. Thanks AJ.
AJ: Ok�see ya later than.
Julia: (waves) Bye.
(AJ leaves)
Julia: (Screams) I can�t believe I am going out with AJ!
Antonia: (comes out of her room) I�m going out with AJ�you�re pretending to be me going out with AJ.
Julia: Right.
(Later that night, Julia goes to the concert. The show is over and Julia is backstage)
Julia: Great show guys.
(They all look at each other�then at her.)
Howie: Thanks.
Julia: You�re welcome.
(They keep on staring at her)
Julia: (looks around) What?
Brian: Nothing. Nothing at all.
Julia: Ooooook.
Kevin: So, AJ told us you were sick�you feeling better?
Julia: I wasn�t si�oh�yes�much better thank you.
AJ: You ok Antonia�you seem a little weird tonight.
Julia: Um�yea, I�m fine�it�s the cold medicine.  You know how that is I�m sure.
Nick: I�m gonna get some food�anyone want anything?
Julia: Oooo�no wait�damn diet.
Nick: Anyone else?
All: No thanks.
(Nick walks between AJ and Julia, and Julia just smacks his butt)
Nick: (jumps) What was that?
(All the guys are in shock)
Julia: Oh my goodness.  (Holds up her hands) These guys have a mind of their own. I�m gonna�(looks at wrist where a watch would be) look at that�time to go. Bye. (Runs away)
Brian: That was really scary.
Nick: She hit my ass dude.
Kevin: That girl did a 360 in the personality department.
AJ: Maybe it was the medicine�some of those make ya crazy.
