"All this time, I don't have any proof. I've been trying to create one so you could be a part of our family!"
I grip my clothes tightly, pressing my lips together, trying to surpass my tears and emotions.
All the things that happened to me make me...
It's hard to trust anyone.
(Why did this happen only to me?)
(Why does everything only happen to me and me only?)
(Why me?)
My uncle turned his head toward me and I turned back to him.
"Liliana, I'm sorry."
He turned back toward the street as his pained expression still visible on his face.
"It's all my fault! I was once your father's friend but... I couldn't do anything for you."
I bit my bottom lip, trying to hear everything and focus on his voice alone.
"Your mother... Was killed by the Forte family. By your fake father... After she just gave birth to you."
"... Why..?"
