6.30 am, Rimini station. A girl dressed in black desperate because her cell phone had been stolen, another next to her with a green duster and a pair of black boots in her hand. So side by side Giulia and Alessia, almost swaying, moved away and went to meet death. Together until the end, until the last attempt of one who wanted to save the other who was on the tracks. “A sister as a best friend”, wrote on Instagram stories Giulia, 17, the oldest, straight hair, black, in the videos with Alessia, the youngest, also long hair. Always together, in life and on social networks, photos, videos with the music of the heart, from Tedua to Jack La Furia. The shots in June in Sardinia, in Costa Rei, after the end of school. The last moments of the life of the two teenage sisters overwhelmed and killed by a train at the Riccione station are shown by the unclear images from the security cameras and by the words, so precise, of the witnesses who saw the two girls on the platforms and searched , screaming, to avoid misfortune. “I screamed and everyone else with me,” says a witness. Shocked and still incredulous the bartender of the station. “At around 7 they entered here, it was early – she tells the woman to CorriereTv – They asked for a bathroom but we have a bathroom. Then they went away, I heard the owner shout, I looked up and saw the Frecciarossa arrive and a of the two girls was sitting on the tracks while the other was trying to get her up: then everything, everything is blown up “. And the words return the horror. Shortly before, Giulia and Alessia had met a passenger who now remembers them and is damned for not being able, with screams, to avoid the tragedy.
“I was near the drinks machine and a beautiful girl dressed in black approached me, asked me for something, told me that everything had been stolen and that she had nothing left.
Then she walked away to the other girl who had a green duster and boots in her hand, “says the passenger who crosses the two sisters near the drinks machine.
The witness describes one of the two sisters not in itself, probably Giulia and Alessia were worried about the theft suffered by at least one of the two: a sister still had her cell phone and in the terrible impact it was the only thing that allowed to identify the bodies. Now Castenaso is crying the two girls.
They were well known, their house in front of the church in the small hamlet of Madonna di Castenaso, the well-liked father with his transport and moving company, a small business that worked. It worked like the life of this family, like the life of Giulia and Alessia, carefree as it should always be at 15 and 17 years old. “Sometimes I think my sister is my only reason for living”, wrote Giulia on Instagram. Always together, Giulia and Alessia.
