My head spun with overwhelming thoughts.
It was all too much to comprehend. Even amidst the chaos unfolding around me, I remained uncertain. My upbringing had been relatively normal, and my ageing father had always told me that my mother died when I was born. But could that have been another lie?
Was it possible that my aunt held resentment toward my father for some other reason? He was considerably older when I was born, and her sister had chosen to be with him, despite their vast age difference. Countless questions swirled in my mind, threatening to implode. Yet, the looming horror of my future overshadowed any curiosity I had.
'"Just one drop… they all died."'
