‘They watched her in surprise. The little girls failed to understand her emotions, her agony
and her tortured soul.’
What should have been an idyllic childhood for two sisters, within a loving family unit, turned into a living nightmare.
Forced to run away from home and hide their whereabouts from their devoted mother and wicked stepfather, the sisters learnt to fend for themselves with the help of their foster parents.
‘Is it so easy to burn it alive?’
‘Then go and fetch her, Saima, she needs you now. If you delay any longer, it could be too
late.’
Through all the pain and anguish, they built new lives for themselves. Through tortured separation and immense patience, they learnt to understand and appreciate each other until they were together again. The deep love of sisters never wavered.
Rastaa is a beautifully written account of how two close and loving sisters strived against the odds on their journey to happiness and fulfilment.
