My Bully
But before I could object, my mom chimed in, her voice pleading.
"Please, honey. It's my request. I don't want to see my sons fighting."
I felt a twinge of guilt as I looked at my mom lying in the bed. She thought Oliver was her son, but little did she know that he was a monster who had hurt her.
I couldn't say that to her, though. It would break her heart to know that the boy she raised was capable of such cruelty.
So, I put on a brave face and agreed.
"Okay, mom. We'll go and talk for you," I said, trying to sound enthusiastic.
