Who am I? What should I do?

They were both war orphans.Lucy who had lost her parents and sibling brother, was in agony of her days in the disaster relief camps.She didn't utter a word since a bomb had taken the lives of her family, she was in a state of delirium.Tim, also a war orphan were staying in the camp.He is a little younger than Lucy and was playing outside the camps with other children.

Lucy was sitting quietly staring at the kids who were playing happily outside, then it suddenly began to rain, kids who were playing were dispersed off to their camps, but Lucy didn't move a bit and was just sitting in the rain staring at the people who were running for shelter. She didn't notice that a boy was beside her holding an umbrella in his hand and was there to hold it for her. "What is your name,sister?" Tim asked.Lucy hearing her called "sister" as lightning remembered her younger brother, and without even having a gesture on her face, tears began to flow from her eyes. It so pained in her heart that she began to faint, just when that Tim hold her to make her stand and took her inside the camp. "So why did you cry? Why were you sitting in the rain?" She was sitting opposite to Tim on the bed and was staring straight into his eyes without saying anything. She felt as if her agony was slowly fading away. Tim stood up and was about to leave,when he halted at the door and again looked back to Lucy,smiled and said "can I be your brother? I will protect you!"and left. She sat there shocked, cried loudly and shouted BROTHER!

It was a fine evening, Lucy went to fetch water from the nearby river, her mother was scolding her younger brother for not going with Lucy, her father was sitting in the drawing room reading newspaper was when the incident happened. A bomb fell on to their village which killed a lot of people including children and women and destroyed her whole village. When she opened her eyes she was in a hospital, breathing heavily she asked about her family and understood that she was the sole survivor of the incident. She didn't cry,she didn't understand who she was, an overflow of thoughts came into her mind, she felt weak, she lost her loved ones, she lost her will and she asked to herself "Who am I? What should I do?

It was the raining day at the camp, she felt nothing in her heart, it was as if a void was there in place of her heart and she was sitting in the rain before going to take her own life. That day a boy came to her and asked to be his sister. That day she got her life back. That day she got her answers. That day she saw her family in her heart. That day she understood who she is and what she should do, that she is the existent and all she should do was to believe that she can do. And then she cried looking at him and shouted BROTHER!
