Since I was a child I had been conditioned that girls are inferior to boys. I had seen it all through my life until now and I intended to not let my daughter feel the same.
When she was born, when I first held her in my arms, it felt as if Vida had been born, the star maker. She was so light and beautiful. Her fingers were small, and her toes, and her little nose was flat. She had chubby cheeks and a beautiful smile, the most beautiful I'd ever seen. Her eyes twinkled so bright I'm pretty sure some of the stars were trying to compete. Perhaps, I possessed the most beautiful daughter.
But when my second daughter was born, I had felt the same. So beautiful, serene, and so much in love.
So maybe, it's not about an individual but the feelings of a mother. I created both of them and I was their protector.
I named her Kira, my first one. The second one I named Mya.
Mya and Kira were both normal children, growing normally. They both had the same toys and the same kind of clothes. They both were good in their respective schools. They both had their individual identities, Kira loved to cook and Mya loved to eat.
When Kira grew up, when Kira turned 19, and Mya 15, an unfortunate event had hit our family, Mya lost her life and we lost Mya.
Kira was devastated. Amidst their fights and cold exchange of words, they were both so much in love. They supported each other, against others and sometimes, against me.
Kira was dwelling into darkness and only Mya could've helped but she was gone as well.
