A Musical Night

Updated: 5 days ago

In the valley of the Nilgiri hills, two sisters lived together. They were named Riya and Diya. They lived in the pastures of Ooty, and, like the beauty of nature around them, each of them was beautiful in their own way.


Diya was ten years younger than her sister and was considered the precious one. She always had something new to learn from people around her, considering how little she knew about the world. Riya, on the other hand, was old enough to understand how humans built mechanical machines that dictated most of their lives.
