Shadow Bending

"Some shadows aren't cast by the sun... they are born from the people we love the most." Elara was supposed to be strong — the eldest, the example, the quiet protector of a house that never asked how she was doing. But the silence grew heavier during lockdown. Between online classes, suffocating expectations, and the pressure to never break, she forgot what it felt like to simply breathe. Mira, her younger sister, was the fire — wild, loud, and unwilling to play by anyone's rules. But when that fire was misunderstood, punished, and nearly taken away, it triggered a storm neither of them were ready for. As betrayal, loss, and rebellion rise in their home, two sisters are forced to confront a truth they’ve both been avoiding: that love alone isn’t always enough to save someone. Can two girls lost in their own shadows find the light before it's too late?
