Merve loved her sister Elif very much. She found her own happiness in the happiness of Elif and their mother. One day, their mother fell ill, and Merve had to take on most of the household chores. Elif, however, was going to school. Merve completed all the household tasks early in the morning so that she could give Elif a warm welcome when she returned home. As days passed, and their mother delayed in recovering, Merve had to work even harder. Elif wanted to help her sister more each day, but often returned home tired from school and was unable to do much. Seeing Elif's fatigue, Merve made the following decision: Being siblings means not only having fun but also struggling together through difficulties. One day, before going to school, Elif prepared a surprise for Merve. She said that there would be hot soup and dessert at home when she returned in the evening. Merve was very touched by Elif's kindness. That evening, filled with beauty, further increased the love between the sisters. As their mother began to recover, Merve saw that Elif was thinking of her and realized that she too had a heart full of compassion just like hers. This strengthened the bond between the two siblings.
