I turned to my little sister. She grabbed my hands. Her grubby palms reminded me of her once, bright and bubbly demeanour. She was now frail, constant tears consuming her face. She was five. She was only five.982Please respect copyright.PENANAkvqYmkvYJx
"Milenna," I cooed in an attempt to sooth her fears. "Do not be afraid. I won't lose you. See? I've got your hands."982Please respect copyright.PENANAIzoa0vkyJI
Her face contorted into a more strained expression of pain. More tears clung to her jawline, rosy cheeks flushed. "I don't w-want to be alone," she mumbled in a slurred tone.982Please respect copyright.PENANAFFGlJT0g5k
The light above us grew increasingly bright, demolishing the sky's atmosphere. Many began to choke, as did my sister. I pursed my lips, willing any sadness away. "I will wait for you, Milenna. I will wait for you as many lifetimes as it takes. I will find you. We'll never...be alone."982Please respect copyright.PENANA6MLDt6wLrS
With that, my lungs gave way. We perished in each others arms. I will find you in the next life, my darling sister.982Please respect copyright.PENANA312tJw7YHk
