As we all know how tragic and devastating wars can be.In wars none of the side wins because no matter on which side their is victory because the losses of war eventually cancels out the victory.
During the time of war one evening they started to bombard the cities with bombs and during this bomb blast the two siblings lost their parents.After losing their parents they went to their aunts place for shelter as it was the time of war the aunt doesn’t have enough food to feed to her own family and in these times feeding two more people was not possible for her.The elder brother was able to read the situation and so they left their aunts place after a few days.They took shelter near rivers bank during this hard time also the siblings lived happily with each other.They used the money which their parents have left for them.The little sister used to fetch water from the river while his brother used to prepare meals for them.
On one fine evening the little sister was playing with fireflies she eventually started to love to play with them but seeing the fireflies dead in the morning made her questioned that how can something so beautiful can die so easily so he asked her brother to which her brother replied that the fireflies died so soon because their lifespan so short and then both the siblings dig a grave for the fireflies.
Day by day the war tore many more peoples apart, slowly the food and money which the siblings had started to decrease and due to the scarcity of food they started to live only on water the brother was not able to see her sister in this condition so he decided to go to the bank to withdraw the leftover money from their parents account despite the fact that the bank was very far from their hometown and amidst the war it was difficult to go there.He got to the bank took money from there and on his way back home he bought food from a convenient store.At the store he saw a box of candy which her mother used to give to him and his sister and his sister used to love those candys so he bought it for her.When he returned home he saw that his sister was lying on the floor starving for food so he immediately started to took out the food and give it to her but before she can put anything in her mouth she died.The brother was devastated by his sister’s loss and while he was sitting behind her another bomb was blasted in that area in which he was also caught and died and like the fireflies the siblings lifespan was also very short.
