Accidents: A Life Changer
Is life a bed of roses or thorns? I have seen a lot of people getting affected by accidents. If I cross-check the reports then the numbers are quite high who become victims of accidents. I remember a story of one such girl who was jovial by nature but one incident changed her life forever.
Dhruvi and her brother, Harshit are twins. They possess a deep bond that could reflect their deep love and care for all. Her parents were proud of their kids who were no less than anyone and had a calibre to conquer the world. After completing their college, they studied in different cities to complete their masters.
Every Saturday when Dhruvi used to come back home for her weekends Harshit made sure that he came to pick her up from the railway station. It was her care that fostered him to ride on his bike to the railway station and get her home safely.
On one such day when Harshit went to pick her up, he met with a tragic accident. As he was crossing the bridge a car hit him hard making him headless within a fraction of seconds. He was deeply bleeding and died in no time. The people who witnessed the scene could not trust their eyes and were looking for some aid to clear the body.
On the other side, Harshita was looking for her brother who was about to come to pick her up. After waiting for a long time, she called home asking who was going to come to pick her up. She was startled to know that Harshit had left a long time before to pick her but he didn't reach the railway station. Her intuition said something was wrong. When she came out looking for a cab or autorickshaw, she was dumb shocked to see a crowd surrounding an accident.
Her heart started thumping when she went near the crowd. Her pain knew no bounds on watching the dead body of her beloved brother. She called up her parents and sought help from the people over there to take the body. Her life got into shatters and she became mature in no time.
She had the responsibility of taking care of her parents and becoming emotional support of her parents. Now she had the urge to be a beacon of hope and be strong enough to handle the family and be a boy also of her parents.
Harshita becomes the strong pillar of support for her parents. She developed into a mature person who could handle all the hurdles and strife of life with ease. Life taught her a lesson that despite all odds she could handle any situation and be a support pillar for her family.

Random, fluke incidents can really make or break a person.
