The scenes came to a brutal halt before Dahlia could see her mother's last moments alive - frankly, she was grateful for that pause. After all she had witnessed, that was the last thing she wanted to see.
"You went through so many hurdles in life." she cried as the memories of what her mother suffered at the hands of her father flooded her mind.
Dahlia was convinced rose-colored glasses tainted her childhood memories because everything she recalled about her father was a kind simplification of the monster he truly was. "No wonder he died the way he did." she thought. It was probably his karma for treating her mother the way he did.
