MY LITTLE GIRL, MU LITTLE FRIEND

Roxi, a six years old girl, was taking breakfast with her family one day when suddenly she saw a little girl standing next to her mum. Roxi, as she was a very sociable girl, immediately went to her and said hello, without asking herself where did that girl came from.
They quickly became very closed friends although the little girl was not a good talker, and when she did talk, she never said a word about her.(Roxi never knew the little girl’s name).
The months passed and they didn’t stop playing and having fun. The little girl was a good companion; as she didn’t talk too much, Roxi could talk for hours feeling that someone finally really understand her. ( but it didn’t mean that they didn’t fight each other sometimes). These two young girls got on very well and where all day together.
But more or less one year later Roxi started feeling a little jealous because the girl wasn’t with her all the time, and when she finally found her, she was with HER mum. One day she felt very lonely because she had spent three days without seeing the little girl, besides her mother wasn’t there too. “As she had been told”, the mother was in a trip and she would come back soon. But she never appeared in the house again, instead Roxi’s father took her to the hospital because her mother was very ill and she wanted to see her daughter. When they arrived Roxi saw the little girl taking her mother’s hands. They didn’t say a word in that moment and never again. Two days later her mother died and the little girl disappeared for ever.
Roxi never talked about the girl because she had always known that she was a very special girl and that Roxi was the only one in her family that could see her.
10 years later Roxi was told that when she was born she had had a twin but unfortunately she had died during birth. In that moment Roxi realized that the little girl she used to see when she was young, and that accompanied her mother until death was her sister.

The way you wrote this story and the story itself are simply excellent. I sort of expected what would happen in the end when her mum went away on a trip, but you handled suspense till the end. Just AWESOME!
