The Heart That He Stole
Even when Ryan dirtied his expensive clothes while playing at our house, she would wash them by hand in the dead of winter so he would not be scolded at home.
That was who my mother was, and she lost her life because of Olivia, Caleb, and Ryan.
A living, breathing woman was sacrificed on an operating table for their selfish desires, and I only learned the truth months later.
I could hardly bear to picture how frightened my mother must have been in her final moments.
How heartbroken.
We had finally survived the worst years.
I had finally grown up, finally able to give her the life she deserved, yet she never lived to see a single day of it, because they stole that future from her.
