Me vs She

No matter how lucky I am, she still seems luckier to me...
There are certain things that always affect you when you are least expecting…
On that rainy evening, when we all were out to have a nice time, I came face to face with these two little girls… One had a huge bunch of red balloons, which she was trying to sell off, and one with cute pink ribbons in her hair… they were the same age, same size, yet so different and as soon as the girl with the pink ribbons in her hair stepped out of her car, she saw the girl with the red balloons.. And it made me smile to see an expression of longing flash on the little girl’s face… It was actually funny, this girl thought the other one to be so lucky, after all didn’t she have a whole bunch of balloons in her hands, she looked at her parents.. with those eyes, begging for just a few of those balloons, and was just led inside the restaurant… the girl kept looking at the balloons … as they slowly disappeared from her sight… I was quite amused and turned back to look at the other little girl, and just froze, not because I saw sad eyes on a young face, but because what I saw was an expression-less face that had aged beyond its years…
