Andrew Kane (POV)

This was a trauma. Mom's trauma has gone beyond repair. It's a reality she has lived in the past six decades. A trauma that has eaten deeper into the web of her bones. One that sleeps and wakes up with her.

When she looked into the mirror, that version of her was all she could see. She couldn't sit to watch someone else from the same background mirroring what she passed through.

What she did doesn't justify her actions but it didn't make any less of what has traumatized ...
