"She was pregnant but she lost the baby." The world stopped. "She... what?" "The paramedics took her to the hospital. She's stable now. But she's pressing charges against your mother." I looked at my mother. She didn't look sorry. "She deserved to hear the truth," Mom said. "I told her she was a horrible person. That she destroyed her best friend's life. That she'll never be happy because happiness doesn't come from stealing." "And she lost her baby because of it?" "That's not my fault. Her guilt did that. Her shame."

My death caused a huge stir in the neighborhood. I had always been known as a diligent and hardworking student, so people found it impossible to believe that I had been abused at home for being lazy. Some classmates who had been close to me posted the story online. In their posts, they listed all the favoritism my mom had shown over the years, along with that ridiculous software she had created. The story quickly spread across the internet. Netizens flooded the comment sections. [Does a woman like this even deserve to be called a mother? She must be punished!]

It was the one weapon I had that could possibly reach into that maelstrom of pure narrative. I wasn't an engineer like Jeff. I couldn't build a bridge. I wasn't a paradox like Lina. I couldn't bend the rules of reality. But I was a mother. And a mother’s story is a force of nature.

After that argument, Gianna and Matteo fell into a cold war. He stopped visiting, and she refused to reach out first.
