Forever In Your Debt Novels & Stories

The remembrance of the debt I had acquired over the years came haunting me again. Every event, from my father’s death up until where I am now, was enough reason to forget.

I hate you for what you did to us, but God help me, I hate myself more for still wishing you had just once looked at me and seen a wife instead of a ledger. The debt is paid in full. Goodbye.

“Forever, you will be mine.” *
