KAYLA GRACE SMITH
TWENTY-FOUR | LOCAL | AMANDA SEYFRIED
[/size]hey, i'm kayla grace smith. everyone calls me kayla. except for my brother, neil, who calls me kg when he really wants to get on my nerves. we're twins, but you wouldn't know it with how different we are. growing up, i was always the quiet, serious one who excelled in school while my brother was the town party animal. like our dad, the family image is important to me, and i go out of my way to protect it, even if it means having to clean up after one of neil's messes.
dad sent both of us off to college in ny together, hoping i'd be a good influence. i graduated at the top of our class while neil dropped out. we both returned to cape may to work at the hotel, with dad setting me up in a management position to learn the business, grooming me to take over one day.
i've not had many long lasting relationships with guys. mostly because they are scared off by how serious i tend to be. there is also the problem that neil tends to be protective of me, suspicious of the guys who i end up dating.
my downtime is usually spent in pretty quiet activities. i love to read, and while i don't admit to it publicly, i love romance stories (maybe because i've not had much romance in my life). i also love to go sailing. the peacefulness of the open ocean calms me when i am upset and i go as often as my responsibilities will let me.
despite our differences, neil and i are actually rather close. i guess thats normal for twins. we've always been able to tell each other our secrets. we may fight a lot because of how different we are, but we're loyal to each other. i might disapprove of how he's living his life, but i'll defend him no matter what.
