      Having entered a boarding school, Ada and her twin sister Rita determined to strike out independently. Although the sisters had requested rooms in different buildings, they were placed in the same, Ada on the
eighth floor and Rita one floor higher. While Ada lived in harmony with her roommate, Rita was unhappy. She and her roommate had a quarrel over matters like the smallest thing-the time of lights being turned
off-and the biggest thing-the arrangement of the furniture. Finally, they communicated primarily through
short notes rather than by speaking. Rita kept running down along the stairs to ask Ada for help. Before
long, the two wanted to live together again. Rita"s roommate finally had to move out.
