The Original Chef Kitten
After many miscarriages from the couple, Christoph Kire and his wife, Amanda Kire. All hope for children seemed highly unlikely. Feeble baby after another, they would all fall ill and die after a couple of days, leaving the couple in the utmost stress and sadness. The doctors suggested they stop attempting and try adoption, however the family was determined and for the last time, they tried.
Around 7 months later they discover the fetus's in Amanda's reproductive system were twins, a boy and a girl. All sense of hope was lost. The babies would most likely be too weak to even live the first 3 seconds of life. Even the doctors were saying that because of their current standing of health. By this time the wife of the couple considered of abortion as their only solitude, to at least put the twin's miser at a halt. But the husband objected, being a man whom thought of abortion as immoral and cruel, but he was desperate for a child, as was his wife. So they powered through the next two months, crossing their fingers and hoping for the best.
Like as you expected, the story at this point, ended in a happy moment. The twins were born miraculously, each with their own serious illness and disorder. However after weeks of surgery and work from the doctors the babies were able to finally leave the hospital, perfectly healthy with two happy parents.
After about 3 months for caring for the twins, tragedy struck, a record breaking Tornado. Even though the couple had lived out in the country all their life and Tornadoes were now just a simple drill that they did as if it was practise. But this one was different. When it hit their house it was if three jets crashed into it. The effect was deadly and the parents, as well as the children were sucked into its funnel. However then a miracle sent from the heavens occurred. Somehow, like a set of fine plates and cutlery, the children were set down onto the ground gentler than a women's kiss. However each in dramatically different places.
After a year the babies were adopted by separate families and moved away from each other. Not to see one another again. Or were they?

Gary took a quick glance at the clock, 7:30. At the time the weather looked crisp and clear, just a couple clouds floating in. If he were to rush he could easily make it to the café before the weather would frown upon the surface. He grabbed his jacket and slung it on over his body, as a simple preparation if he was indeed caught in an unlikely storm.
His brain was absolutely fried he had been working on his homework since early in a day. It was a boring way to spend his day off from school, but if he wanted a future, he would have to tough it out. At least now he was done, he had finished everything to his standard of perfection, which was quite high and he was quite satisfied. His efforts had definitely warranted him an hours rest at his favourite coffee place. Which was now where he took his breaks, as lame as it sounds.
He was finally prepared, he had his shoes, his jacket, his wallet and his keys. Observing that everything was in place, he nodded to himself and left his apartment and made his way to the Café on foot.
Around twenty minutes later he arrived, only slightly pelted by the incoming rain, that seemed to get worse by the minute. Luckily he was inside and away from the sky's wrath. Now he could just sit and watch the storm come down on people, while he drank his nice warm coffee. When the waiter came around he ordered the cheapest thing there, like he normally did. He wasn't exactly strapped for funds, but he was a little anxious about the bills at the end of the month. He was always terrible at estimating the amount he would have to pay. However, the cheap stuff wasn't exactly terrible. Certainly better than the stuff his room mate bought. That stuff was beyond horrid!
Once the waiter came back with his warm beverage he slowly sipped away at. As a rich man would sip his wine. The storm was certainly entertaining, it was at the point where all that was left on the streets were the cars, the pedestrian had already ran for cover. The shop was also getting filled because of this but the seat next to him was yet to be taken.
