Upon reading this question, the first two persons flashed across my mind were my two closest cousins. For a single child like me, this particular pair of sisters are akin to that of my own siblings.
They are sisters, born from the same parents and only 2 years apart in age, but with rather drastically different personalities. I shall list down a couple of points (in my opinion) about their characters below.
Name: Melissa (the eldest of the sisters)
Appearance: Tall and slender
Personality:
- Outgoing!
- Adventurous; she dares to experiment new things and challenges
- Unafraid to voice out (but a little tactless too)
- Playful; there is a childish side of her that she often display
Name: Marilyn (the younger one)
Appearance: Average height for a Sg lady, a little "fleshy" but in no way fat
Personality:
- Gentle and usually demure
- More reserved; she tends to bottle up her real feelings
- Sentimentalist about things, and sensitive about others (people)
- A little clumsy (or ditzy, in a way)

Qns2: Characters placed in a specific situation
Qns2: Characters placed in a specific situation
Melissa and Marilyn approached what appeared to be a vacant table in a hawker centre. Delighted, Melissa was the first to rush over and occupy the seat before any other passerby grabs it. Marilyn soon followed, in slower strides. Upon sitting down, they then realised that a pack of tissue paper was already on one of the seats. Again, Melissa was the first to notice this and quickly voiced out her thoughts.
"Wah, someone already chop this table leh!" Melissa said in annoyance.
"Aiyah. We go find another one lor..." added Marilyn in a passive manner.
In Singapore, it is a common knowledge that if an unused pack of tissue paper is on a table or chair in a hawker centre outlet, it means that this particular table has already been taken by someone. It is simply an act that indicates "reservation".
Melissa grunted a little before leaving the table, but in a discontented way.
"Singaporeans, always doing this kind of pattern. So inconsiderate!"
Marilyn followed her elder sister closely behind. She chuckled a little when she noticed that the pack of tissue paper was now on the floor. Knowing her sister, she must have playfully shoved the pack off the seat earlier on.
The two sisters then continued on their way to look for another table.
