She had a nightmare, and the scenes within it were terrifyingly real, leaving her shaken. Instead of comforting her or trying to calm her down, they ended up blaming her.

Are they really my sons?

Before the car accident, she held her sons and her daughter, Melanie, in high esteem. They were her pride and joy.

Moreover, they held her in high regard, seemingly having her best interest in mind.

The large bag was filled to the brim with local specialties she had brought over to share with colleagues.

She could have taken a few more days off, but hearing from her colleagues about the mounting work, she, a diligent worker, decided to return to the office. After all, she had a mortgage to pay off for the house she bought.
