Flashback:
Today, my mother, my little brother, and I had somehow pissed off my father again.
Sometimes, we didn't even know what mistake we had made.
It just happened that my father would suddenly get angry. Today was no different.
I think my mother had said something about him setting us free forever, and he didn't like that.
That was why he sent us off in a car with the warriors.
We were told we couldn't question anything.
My father was coming in a separate car with my stepmother.
They had left Leysa at home because my father avoided showing her such traumatizing things.
"Where are we going?" I asked my mother, my voice breaking, wondering if Daddy was taking us somewhere to punish us or if he was finally going to set us free like we had asked.
My mother placed her hand on my shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze before her eyes turned watery.
Then she looked down at my baby brother sleeping in her arms.
