“I thought keeping quiet was loyalty. But it was fear. And it cost me everything.” Natalie’s eyes shone with unshed tears. “You left me with strangers. I bounced from one couch to the next. I lived in borrowed houses and ate cold food and lied about why my mom wasn’t around.” “I know.” “No, you don’t,” Natalie snapped. “You can’t know what it’s like to wonder every single night if your mom’s even alive.
