I tilted my head, peeking at the dark tunnel, scanning the place ahead, and checking if it was really safe for us to go inside. My eyes squinted, seeing slight movements from the inside. I was sure what my eyes were seeing. ‘Puppies!’

Inside lay a set of baby clothes that I had bought for my unborn child. Unfortunately, the child would never have the chance to wear them. The dirty soil and cake smeared the baby's clothes, while Chandler turned a blind eye to my mom’s desperate pleas. My mom’s frail body was curled in pain within that dark, narrow coffin.

His body shivered the moment the cold drops of rain touched his skin. He wasn't equipped to deal with it, nor did he care about it. All he could think of was Cody’s loyalty, Freddie’s motor mouth a
