`` Well , you 'll really have to count me as a relative after this , '' laughed Millicent . `` I 'm sure a girl who looks as much like you as I do must be at least as much relation as a stepaunt . '' From that moment they were firm friends , and their friendship was still further cemented by the fact that Worth found it necessary to change her boarding-house and became Millicent 's roommate . Their odd likeness was the wonder of the school and occasioned no end of amusing mistakes , for all the students found it hard to distinguish between them . Seen apart it was impossible to tell which was which except by their clothes and style of hairdressing . Seen together there were , of course , many minor differences which served to distinguish them . Both girls were slight , with dark-brown hair , blue eyes and fair complexions . But Millicent had more colour than Worth . Even in repose , Millicent 's face expressed mirth and fun ; when Worth was not laughing or talking , her face was rather serious . Worth 's eyes were darker , and her nose in profile slightly more aquiline . But still , the resemblance between them was very striking . In disposition they were also very similar . Both were merry , fun-loving girls , fond of larks and jokes . Millicent was the more heedless , but both were impulsive and too apt to do or say anything that came into their heads without counting the cost . One late October evening Millicent came in , her cheeks crimson after her walk in the keen autumn air , and tossed two letters on the study table . `` It 's a perfect evening , Worth . We had the jolliest tramp . You should have come with us instead of staying in moping over your books . '' Worth smiled ruefully . `` I simply had to prepare those problems for tomorrow , '' she said .
`` You see , Millie dear , there is a big difference XXXXX us in some things at least .
