Magic Mirror | Ivy's Story

Prologue

➖➖➖➖

There wasn't really a ceremony or funeral. Me and Tiya don't have the money for that. So we just buried her in The Death Grounds.

Families would usually walk by and give us pitied looks. No one cared though. Our mother died and no one cares because they have there own lives.

This means that me and Tiya has to spend the rest of our life with our father until he sells one of us for marriage. 'If we're ever married' he says.

I look up at Tiya, away from the dirty ground we just buried our mother in.

Tiya is beautiful, she has my fathers looks, but as much as I hate him, she's beautiful. Tiya never saw herself as one to have beauty, but people around her can see it.

I however, being Tiya's twin looks nothing like her. I know I'm beautiful because I got all my looks from my mother.

With both me and my twin sister's beauty, we are seen as much different but at the same time much alike. With one glance you'd be able to tell if we're related because of our good looks. It's just how we work I guess.

Tiya wasn't crying. Unlike me, who had tears slowly running down my face. She just stood there and watched the ground silently as if in a daze.

"Tiya." I said through sniffs.

"Yes Ivy." She answers with nonexistent emotion.

I wanted to say something. Anything than what I told her then. "Lets go home."

It wasn't our home, we knew our home was gone the minute we stepped in my mothers dark, cold room and saw her lifeless body laying on her cotton blankets.

Tiya and I walked hand in hand the rest of the way home. We didn't talk like we usually did. We didn't sing. We didn't skip.

There and then I knew that going back home would be much different. Our mother isn't there anymore. And our "father" is all that's left for an excuse of a parent.

Things changed. But more importantly, Tiya changed.
