Chapter 8

Author: Anonymous
In the flames, Mom looked straight at my soul. She reached out, as if to touch my face, but I stepped back.

Her eyes closed, and two clear trails of tears slid down her cheeks.

"Aurora, you should go now. Reborn into a good family. I failed you in this life, so don't choose me in the next one."

The fire licked hungrily at her body, consuming her words.

As she spoke, the fire licked hungrily at her body.

Strangely, she didn't seem surprised to see me. It was as though she had always known I

    In the flames, Mom looked straight at my soul. She reached out, as if to touch my face, but I stepped back. Her eyes closed, and two clear trails of tears slid down her cheeks."Aurora, you should go now. Reborn into a good family. I failed you in this life, so don't choose me in the next one."The fire licked hungrily at her body, consuming her words.As she spoke, the fire licked hungrily at her body.Strangely, she didn't seem surprised to see me. It was as though she had always known I was there.I was only a spirit, so I wasn't afraid of the flames. I watched as the home I had lived in for over a decade collapsed into ashes. Dad's cries, strong and forceful at first, grew hoarse, then fell silent. Mom made no sound at all throughout.I should have felt a whirlwind of emotions. Instead, I remained strangely calm, as though everything here had nothing to do with me.Quietly, I left and drifted to the prison where Lindsey was held.Prison was no kind place for Lindsey.A

    Determined to see Lindsey imprisoned, the victim's family rejected all offers of compensation and pressed the case to trial.Mom, however, stood firmly on the opposite side—pleading for Lindsey's acquittal.Watching the scene unfold, I couldn't help but feel the bitter irony. Twice now, Mom had stood before the court for Lindsey—once to save her at my expense, and now to save her from prison.The jurors regarded them both with open disdain.Mom tugged nervously at her clothes, as if trying to shield herself from their contempt. But the gesture was hollow. Just as she steadied herself and began her defense, a juror let out a cold, mocking laugh."Why keep raising such a monster? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Isn't she the same lawyer from that video?"A woman like her doesn't deserve to be a mother. If I were the eldest daughter who died, I'd wish nothing but death upon that second daughter."Mom's carefully prepared speech faltered. Her voice caught, her body swayed,

    Mom and Dad were summoned to the school. The tall girl had been rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, while Lindsey stood off to the side, her chin lifted in defiance. When the principal recounted the incident, Mom stared at Lindsey in disbelief."You're usually afraid of even stepping on an ant. How could you possibly hurt someone?"Even though Mom and Dad couldn't believe it, I could.When I was little, I saw Lindsey beat a stray cat to death with her bare hands and even skin it.Later, I also saw her hurt other small animals.I told Mom about it back then, but she dismissed me, accusing me of inventing stories to compete for attention. She insisted Lindsey was the kindest, most soft‑hearted child she had ever known.I knew Mom wouldn't believe me, but Lindsey was just born evil.A year ago, Lindsey nearly killed me.One night, while Mom and Dad were away on vacation, Lindsey barged into my room with a knife aimed straight at my heart. Fortunately, years of chores

    Hearing this, I couldn't help but find it ridiculous. So, in Lindsey's eyes, I was actually that impressive?From the moment she was born, our parents' attention had always been on her. Never once had they stopped to look at me.When Lindsey cried as a child, Mom would hit me, claiming my noise had frightened her.Similarly, when Lindsey failed an exam, Mom would slap me—even if I had scored perfectly. She said my success was nothing but arrogance, that I should have helped Lindsey instead of humiliating her. Even when I fell ill and brought my diagnosis to Mom, she kicked me in the stomach. Her glare burned into me as she spat, "Lindsey is already sick, and now you're making up lies just to steal the spotlight? Aurora, have you no conscience at all?"Every shred of hope I held for this family slowly withered away in their distrust and indifference. It wasn't the lack of love that destroyed me—it was the injustice. If Mom and Dad had been equally cold to both of us, perhaps I w

    Dad, numb and moving like a soulless shell, transferred the money to the nurse to pay for her phone."Dad, please don't be like this. Aurora was always defying Mom and even took her to court. A daughter like that deserved to die."Hearing Lindsey's curses against me from behind, Mom turned around and swiftly walked over. Then, she slapped Lindsey hard across the face."I won't allow you to speak about Aurora like that."The slap left Lindsey momentarily stunned. She had likely assumed that since Mom and Dad utterly despised me, speaking ill of me would win her their approval. Instead, it only provoked Mom's fury.Quickly recovering, Lindsey slapped herself several times while muttering, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have caused Aurora's death. I'm the one who deserved to die!"Mom's expression softened somewhat at Lindsey's self-blame, though not enough to comfort her. Realizing it wasn't enough, Lindsey snatched a scalpel from a passing nurse's cart and slashed her own wrist."

  • Donor Against My Will: I Died After Saving My Sister   Chapter 3

    Lindsey had been home for a fortnight now. At first, our parents would still speak of me, but those mentions grew thinner and rarer until they ceased altogether. It was as if they'd collectively decided to forget I ever existed. Early one morning, they took Lindsey to the hospital for a follow-up.Once Lindsey's attending physician cleared her results, the three of them turned to leave when they spotted a group of nurses crowded around a video playing on a smartphone. "How can this woman be so heartless? She actually sued her own daughter in court.""And she's a lawyer too! With all her education, she still plays favorites. She practically drove her own daughter to her death."Mom stopped in her tracks. The voice coming from the video was unmistakably hers. In the video, she was passionately listing my "crimes" and even showing the courtroom clips, using the law to prove that I was legally bound to surrender my platelets. I had remained silent throughout the trial. In the e
