Their mother died when she gave birth to them. Their father raised the twins alone. He was a successful businessman with many assets. The brothers grew up with plans and promise. But when their father died about fifteen years ago, everything began to fall apart.
A bitter fight over the estate followed. Their uncles moved in to claim the properties. The twins took the case to court. The court gave a judgement in their favour, but that victory did not bring peace. Running the businesses proved hard. The firms that once made money later failed. The brothers tried to find work, but good jobs did not come easily.
With bills to pay, they began to sell their late father’s remaining shops and assets. One brother stayed behind and used the money to open an electronics shop. The other left for Canada to seek a new life abroad.
Years passed. The brother in Canada stayed for nine years, but he did not find the success he had hoped for. The brother at home worked hard, but his business did not recover. He sent money to his sibling in Canada many times to help him through hard months.
Now, after fourteen years since graduation, the brothers are both back in the same small room. They share a single mattress and one fan that still works. One of the twins will soon turn forty. Neither has a wife or children. Neither has steady comfort or peace of mind.
They say they have tried everything. They have worked, searched for jobs and started businesses. They have not stopped trying. Yet life has been unkind. The brother who stayed home feels the weight of the years each night. He cries quietly and says he is almost ready to give up. He wonders if this long struggle is normal. He asks why, despite effort and study, his life has not moved forward.
Neighbours who know the family say the two men were once polite and hopeful young graduates. Friends remember bright plans and strong work ethic. Now those friends watch quietly and offer condolences more than solutions. The brothers keep their days simple. They cook small meals, fix small things around the room and try to sleep early to save money on electricity.
Experts on family finance say that losing a parent without a clear will often leads to long legal fights and slow recovery. Small businesses need steady cash and time to grow. When money runs out, people sell assets and lose their base for a fresh start. It is a story that repeats in many places where inheritance, court battles and bad luck meet.
The twins say they still love each other. They lean on the small comforts they can find. They share memories of their father and the quiet days before the trouble began. They hold on to the belief that something might change if an opportunity appears.
For now, they survive day by day. The father they remember would, they say, be sad to see them like this. The brothers keep moving forward because each morning brings new chances, however small.
