My mother, Riley, stared at me from a distance. I could see the longing in her eyes–the need to be close to her son. I saw her almost every single day–except for the times she locked herself away in her room, and yet, there seemed to be this distance between us; we could never have a normal mother–to–son relationship. I knew that.

The bruise on my neck still stung, a wound inflicted by her but I knew she hadn’t been in her right mind. I could tell the moment the switch flipped and her demon took control. I was strong enough to fight her now, but I’d rather die than hurt my own mother. The pain from each bite was bearable, but the thought of raising a hand against the woman who gave me life–that, I couldn’t endure.

I waved awkwardly at her, and she smiled, teary–eyed.

I walked towards her; her eyes widened in panic, and she turned around returning to her room, fleeing down the passageways, but I followed after her, and before she could shut the door on me, I slid into her room.

“Why are you here?” She asked, a frown on her face, but I could still see her fear. She wanted me close to her, and at the same time, she didn’t.
