Brothers

A Story by Abishai100

Twins of opposing sense of sanity create a portrait of the distracted/diffracted psyche as Bostonians of a 'jarring' bound quality.

A fun adaptation of Sisters (Brian De Palma). Happy Halloween,

Amlan/Ajay, twins from Algeria, were now both Bostonians (New England) but driven-apart by one defining feature of that schism of the psyche yielding diametric opposites for a 'chess-stalemate' in brotherhood, with one aspiring for law-abiding language-arts (as a policeman), and the other a veiled/invisible (psychotic) master-thief, living together, but miles/dreams apart. Amlan, the cop, had saved multiple lives, solved cases, and was studying Thoreau and David Hume, while his twin (Ajay), the psycho, was tied with (rumored) blood-diamond bank-box swaps (vigilantism), destabilizing the dreaded/infamous Ion-company of New England, and created insurance-examination(s) for some (Interpol-relation?) inquiries, all the while having bloody murdered about 10 guardsmen, henchmen, and policemen (wow).

AMLAN: We're close to this case about this 'psycho-vigilante' and cop-killings!
AJAY: Wow, maybe we'll make a joint Selfie-commentary about crime-writers?

AMLAN: Sounds like a master-plan; might address the 'Wolfen' IQ of this case!

AJAY: Always available to help; when I'm not in my art-studio (working), bro.

AMLAN: Thanx...you've always been quite the gent; despite your silent-tones.

AJAY: Hahaha.

AMLAN: Were you aware of this Canadian street-protest, Ajay?
AJAY: What, you think I was that masked 'Scarecrow' character inciting lust?

AMLAN: You weren't part of that street-act about 'distracting' indulgence(s)?

AJAY: Los Angeles Race Riots, 9/11, Boston Marathon bombings, consider it all.

AMLAN: So you've no 'inkling' about this Scarecrow-ID, Ajay?
AJAY: I only make 'graphic-art' for me; I try not to live-it out, Amlan bro (ha).

AMLAN: Just seems like something you'd 'cook-up' in one of your paintings!

AJAY: You're too 'curious' as a policeman, Amlan; there's brushes of madness.

AMLAN: Aha, simply a 'trend' that's of no concern to you?

AJAY: Good for social media (eh?).

Amlan offered his evil-twin (Ajay) a soft/zesty drawn (Indian) luchi-bread thanksgiving-diner plate chat(s) that season of high-crimes and misdemeanors drawing social-media culture commentary about (insured) treasure/fortune readings for Western society, and all the while, Amlan (the cop) had no cue that it was Ajay behind some of the dark-blue insanity creating these Wolfen-waves of human-psyche distraction(s) of 'American' quality, and as Amlan chewed on his bread, he wondered if Ajay chewed on his (own) metallurgy.
