There was a tree on the river bank, a coconut tree. Siddhartha leaned over her, wrapped his arm around her torso and then looked at the greenish water flowing beneath him. He looked down and was filled with the desire to lower himself into the water. The terrible emptiness in the water reflected a terrifying emptiness in his soul. Yes. He was at his end. There was nothing left but to remove himself. This was the work he longed to do, to destroy the formula he hated! May the fish devour this heart of Siddhartha, this imbecile, this corrupt and worn-out body, this dull, consuming soul! May the fish and crocodiles devour him and the demons tear him apart.
With convulsive features, he stared at the water and saw his face and spat on it. He moved his arms away from the tree trunk and turned slightly, hoping to fall on his head and dive. With his eyes closed, he leaned toward death.

Novel: Where did you lose your hearts?
They were sitting at the dining table eating lunch.
The brothers were arguing about something, and nothing stopped them except the mother’s crying and the father’s shock. The brother stood up to find out what had happened and was shocked as well. The sisters did not realize what had happened to them...what might put the shock on their faces. They only knew one thing, which was that death was coming.
That day came when the father, who works in the most honorable profession of protecting the homeland, would leave. He was going to the battlefield!
Days passed and nothing had happened yet.. They thought that what was published were just rumours, until one day they felt an earthquake, an earthquake that was neither strong nor weak. From that moment they knew that their country had begun to collapse.. They knew that they had reached the end, or to be more precise, they had not reached the end. It was only the beginning, the beginning of the war and the beginning of the pain.
From that moment, the family began to struggle with death...to struggle with pain...the pain of loss...the loss of the self, the loss of the father, and the greatest loss was the loss of the homeland! The homeland that sheltered and protected them...so how could they lose the place where they made their memories?
