Daddy’s Obsession
“Don’t leave me, mom. Don’t go, please.”
I just couldn’t deal with the thought that I was going to lose her too. I couldn’t deal with the thought that I was going to lose every single person I loved. If at all, they should take me along too. I can’t be left behind in this cruel world.
“Please, mom.” I cried out, my body shaking with force. “Please, stay with me. Please, don’t leave me, mom.” I begged, as though begging would sustain her.
