The Shattering Loss

It was very devastating the way that beautiful relationship between the two sisters ended.
Jiya even didn't get chance to utter a good-bye or hug Riya for a last time.
These two sisters were the alter ego of each other, the best friends.
They kept no secrets between them and enjoyed every moment of life together until one fatal day Riya died from brutal car accident.

Since then Jiya cried each night, burying her face in the pillow.
Slowly, the tears dried off and crying morphed into the worst kind where she couldn't sob loudly, tears would not roll down her cheeks, but her throat hurt dry and sad.

Decades later, Jiya has started looking for her sister in people around her.
Very little she knows that there is always only one person on the earth of its own kind.
Her broken and aching heart is not ready yet to accept the shattering loss of her twin sister.

  2. Shilpa: That is true, it is tough but the only way to be at peace. Ironically, sadness and losing peace of mind can go hand in hand, or could follow each other. So faster the peace is attained, happier one would be.
