A moment of silence enveloped us as I looked at her with an anticipated look hanging on my face, only to be rudely smacked with the harsh reality in the next second.
"I'm sorry, darling, I didn't see anything," my mother claimed. "I panicked when I saw the vase shattered onto the ground," she quickly said, making up some excuse.
I should have known that she wouldn't say anything to help my case. Yet, I naively believed that she would help me despite what happened at the last incident when they accused me of stealing Evelyn's diamond necklace.
"But I'm sure it was all just a big misunderstanding," she continued to explain in a hurry. "It was probably just an accident, don't think too much about it, alright?" She urged, snapping me back to the present as she placed her hand on me and I quickly pushed it off of me in a fit of anger.
A scoff left my lips as I looked at my mother.
