How would you wire a SABC?

[Ramsz]

So for my kitchen CounterTops, I'm running a separate 20 amp AFCI/GFCI, but for my other counters along the walls, I would like to run two more 20amp circuits also coming from two more AFCI/GFCI Breakers. Can I do this by tying these two breakers together and running 12-2-2 Romex and splitting the outlets top and bottom, running the red/white-red to the bottom and running black/white-black to the bottom?

This is my first post here, by trade I'm a Maintenance Supervisor. Maintenace people are the ones that normally cause all the grief for the electricians out there, I can admit that.

I'm rebuilding, replumbling and rewiring my enitre home with permits. I might be doing a little overkill on almost thing I've done. Because maintenace is what I do, I things I have to fix have been those items that were valued engineered, or some crap a great salesman has sold somebody. So I'm changing from a old (4)screw in fuse electrical system to a new Seimens panel that I'm running separate AFCI/GFCI 20 amp circuts to almost everything. I know, overkill! Oh yeah, I read nec 2014/2017 and read as many books and videos possible.

I know many of you are required to do the job as bidded and know that the cheapest bid gets the work. This is my home and and I really want to do this once and not have problems that I see with building to code minumums.
