Only the two of us are left for each other

I didn't realize when I fainted . When , opened my eyes . It was all blur for a minute . I could hear several voices coming from all directions . I could not understand what was happening . A minute later my vision cleared and I could see my brother standing in the front . His eyes all swollen and bloodshot . He was trying so hard to pretend not to cry but his eyes were telling it all . I tried to call him but my voice was trembling and my words vanished in the hustle bustle of the surroundings . I gathered up my energy and with all my might I called him . He looked at me and came to me , he bent down so as to hear me . I asked , all frightened ," Where are mom and dad ? They were there when I was conscious . I saw her bracelet and his spectacles . Where are they ? Are they in critical condition ?".  As I said this , he could no longer hold his tears back . I was terrified . His voice trembled , " Mom ......Dad..they...they left us ". " This is no time to j...

My world - Upside down

The half building opposite to us was collapsing and the building at our side was about to collapse because the cracks were getting deeper . I ran to their room , the moment I opened it and I froze . My parents,  they were injured and were stuck under a huge part of ceiling which had fallen over them . Tears shed from my eyes and I ran towards them but they stopped me in the middle and told me to go and save myself first . I neglected right away and then they said something to me but I could not bother that at that time . I started to go towards them but as I took a step the room collapsed and so did I.  When I got conscious , I don't know how was I alive but  was madly searching mom and dad . Everyone who was alive there was searching for people they lost . I was searching and searching and searching and I finally saw a hand with a bracelet on that , it was my mother's and my dad's glasses with beside it , broken.  I couldn't hold myself , I fell and I cried . I crie...

The cracks were getting deeper

I was so excited even from the thought of traveling.  As there is a german saying , " Wir sind besessen von dingen, die wir nicht besitzen ". Which means we are obsessed with things we don't have.  Same the case was with me because I never actually traveled.  So, I was obsessed with traveling and it was the first time that I would see a beach for real . The packing was all done . Me , my mother and father were all ready . My sibling was not able to come because he had a party with his friends and he wouldn't miss it at any costs no matter how much we tried to persuade him , afterall he was now a college boy . So , we three decided to go . We left early in the morning to reach by evening . In the car , the backseat was full beside me with all sort of snacks , the music was playing on the car radio and I was enjoying the scenes outside the car. I was too busy daydreaming that I didn't even realize when did the car stop . When I asked dad , he said that there was som...

There are perks of being friends with bullies , for sure

Lucia was looking at us confused and she finally could not stop her curiosity any further and asked , " what are you guys talking about and as far as I know I am not invisible and you two seem not to see me ". Me and Finn glanced at each other and then we broke into laughter . Lucia was standing there , still confused . We finally got a hold on ourselves then Lucia asked me , " What happened Anna , why did you go there because there was  board of no entry there ". I looked at Finn and somehow he knew I didn't want to tell it in front of him , so he left saying that he'll be back with juice for them . When he left , Lucia holder my hand and asked , " Now tell me what happened , there is no way that it was an accident ". I sighed and told her everything.  After that,  she said,  " Why didn't you tell the principal,  it was them . And I left as soon as I completed my exam ".  I told her , " If I would have told the principal then he...
