The numbers of the steps I took to get there, was how many times my heart and my soul was shattered. I stopped in front of a huge door and just stared at it for a very long time.
My hands touched the knob then before I knew, the door opened wide and my sight caught a woman lying on the bed so peacefully. Maybe because she's already in peace or maybe because she's lifeless.
I walked silently towards her, everything dawning on me. The pain, every kind of hurt came down on me like the rain. Tears started to fall from my eyes as I now stood right beside my mother who is now gone.
"Mom, wake up. I need something to eat." My voice broke as I said the last words.
"Mom, wake up." I touched her hand before falling on my knees. Tears fell on the carpet as I released my pent up cry. Mother, who killed you?
