Chapter 32: Face The Music

IT SHATTERED my heart to watch my mother lying in a hospital bed, battling for her life only because of what I did. I couldn’t bear the thought of seeing my mother in such a state, so I left. It was all my fault; if I had obeyed her advice and not had a boyfriend, she would not have been comatose and waiting for a stroke of luck to happen.

Even though it was pouring heavily, I wasted no time in leaving because I didn’t want to face my helpless mother. It appeared I had died along with her if she will die.

I don’t want to be a part of this world. I intend to sever all ties with them. For Mom’s wishes, I ended my relationship with my boyfriend, and I also moved away from her house because I had done nothing worthwhile for her. I’ve just brought her to the edge of death.

Who is a dutiful son who would defy his mother’s command? Who is the wonderful son who will inflict his mother with misery and grief?
