The town of Broughton swathed in an eerie silence, the usual bustling street now eerily still. The townspeople had gathered in a sombre congregation beneath the gnarled oak tree that stood as a silent guardian to their community for generations. Its thick branches bore a heavy burden today - the lifeless body of a frail old woman swaying gently in the breeze. The sight was both horrifying and heartbreaking, and the entire town was in shock.
Whispers passed through the crowd like wildfire, as everyone tried to make sense of the unthinkable tragedy. No one could understand what could have forced Finn's mother, a woman who had endured so much, to take her own life.
She had been through a lot and faced many hardships in life. With an irresponsible son like Finn, the woman barely had a handful of happy moments in life.
Yet she always stood strong, taking the troubles by the horns. So why did she give up her life now?
