We are orphans. It is the most appropriate word for my sister and me. We lost our parents five years ago. Back then, I was 20 years old; I was just starting university. My parents died in a traffic accident. My sister was 12 years old when that tragic day happened.
Since then, seven years have passed. As I was already of legal age, I had to take care of my sister. We had no relatives we could trust; we were alone in a big city. As such, I had to grow up much earlier, work full time so that my sister could continue studying. Luckily, our parents left some money for us.
