And then she called that high school best friend her cousin always talk about but then no clues as well. It creeps to her.

He yelled at Sader, "This is where we lost our damn daughter, for crying out loud. This exact spot, and that scribble on the rock was made by her. It's all we have left to remember her by because she's not in Heaven, Hell or even Harlem. "You have no idea what it feels like to raise a child and then lose it from out of nowhere.

Liam is sobbing in my arms, "and I want my mum." "I miss them too; I miss them so much," I say, "but they are not coming back. But at least they left me with their greatest gift; they left me, you, and Lyra. I know it hurts, but we will be alright because I've got you, and you've got me." Liam starts sobbing even harder, and I feel Luca’s tears on my shoulder. I let them cry; honestly, since my parents died, we didn't have time to grieve.

It was almost always kids like me, who had lost parents that get dumped into the system and nothing is done to guarantee their safety once they are in. “Tara I was like you once I had a family that cared about me once I had a family that cared about me once and got lost to the system after they died in a car crash. Losing my momma and poppa was like losing the air in my lungs. I was so depressed that I just couldn’t see the light until I was finally found by my abuela. She was still living in Puerto Rico and couldn’t be tracked down for over half a year. She had no clue about my parent’s deaths. For me it was like being rescued after being lost in darkness for months.”

Gabe's mother said as she walked towards her, wearing that shattered smile. "Your parents, your real family, they were our closest friends when they were still alive. We witnessed your parents' love story," she shared as she chuckled with bitterness. "That time, we went abroad for a vacation. It was the day that your mother also gave birth to you. Before that, she told me to guide you, and if I only knew that she was already saying goodbye that time, I should have not left the country…maybe I was able to protect them from the Valestine who erased them.
