Chapter Two

Amber’s legs wobbled, her balance faltered, and her emotions felt like a chaotic storm, but she refused to turn back and leave without confronting the family that had betrayed her.

She knew it was time to stop avoiding the inevitable. Despite her determination to have nothing to do with this family ever again, she couldn’t escape confronting them forever.

Even though she understood deep down that it might not change anything, she needed closure, a resolution to the torment inside her mind.

Standing in front of her family home, a place she hadn’t visited in three months and had sworn never to return to, she took a deep breath before walking through the gate and towards the front door. Every step felt like a challenge, a battle against the anger and humiliation she carried within.
