Mary sat on the edge of the bed, watching her daughter’s restless movements with concern etched or her face. She finally couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer and asked in a gentle tone, “What are you thinking, Marlene? What are you going to do about the mess you’ve found yourself in?” e mess you’ve found yourself in?”

Marlene spun around, smoke trailing behind her. She shot a fiery glare at her mother, her words sharp and cutting. “I’d advise that you shut up and let me think, mother. Don’t talk to me.“.

I know why you’re still clinging to me, pretending to be a supportive mother. It’s because you know damn well that, without me, you would be nothing. I’m your lifeline, and you’re here because you’re
