Awalk in my shoes

twin ninth-graders emerson and ennis bentley were identical in every way except one—their approach to life. both boys were brilliant, but emerson was the ultimate introvert who preferred computers and the virtual world to the real world. ennis was the extrovert who loved the companionship of others and found his joy interacting with friends. occasionally, ennis could convince emerson to join him in an activity, though emerson rarely actually participated and seemed content just to sit quietly and watch. frustrated by his brother’s passiveness, ennis eventually gave up try.
