The Perfect Victim
Even the doctor who examined my injuries barely glanced at me and said it did not even count as minor harm.
I went to the court to file for divorce, but the clerk kept saying the printer was broken or that the network was down.
My parents stood before the media, tears streaming down their faces.
They said, "We failed to raise our son right. We won't let him go through with this divorce. Claire is such a wonderful girl."
Because of Claire, they had a daughter-in-law who was a nationally honored hero, and Dad walked tall at work. My younger brother, Ryan Sterling, even found himself a girlfriend from a well-off family.
