I can't help but stare at my mom, who drives like her soul depends on it. Well, her soul depends on it. We are moving for the seventh time this year, and it has not yet been half of the year.327Please respect copyright.PENANAIRpdIKrdIb

This is my mom's story. She is paranoid that he will come again, he- my manic father. Well, the sperm donor is the reason for me not having a good childhood. I can't even know how many faces I've seen while growing up.327Please respect copyright.PENANAwDokPp00AZ

My mom runs her fingers through her tangled hair tiredly. She has been driving non-stop for over 12 hours as she throws the empty can of coffee through the window. I pity her. She's running away again.327Please respect copyright.PENANAjnSCWZj1F9

We enter Timberland town - the town is far away from the city; mom leaves all her life in the city to stay in this local town. My mom is a nurse, and every time the sperm donor appeared, my mom would relocate and get transferred from work.327Please respect copyright.PENANAmfxCrSxmZC

She ignites the pickup vehicle as she sighs, resting her head on the steering, sighing, then turns to me, giving me a gentle smile. What surprises me the most is that, no matter what my mom is going through, smiles never leave her face, but tiredness can be seen on her face. Dark circles and big bags are under her tiny eyes as her nose twitches from the night cold, and her mouth is pale. I step out of the car, stretching my stiff muscle, staring at the bungalow in front of me. The house looks old, but with a few retouches, I think it would be the best on the streets.327Please respect copyright.PENANAEWx4QpReu3

I whip my head to the one-story building next to us, which is demarcated by a wall, the heated argument between two people- a man and a woman. A moment later, a blond woman comes out with a stroller. As her heels click on the floor angrily until one of her heels gets stuck in one of the gapped tiles.327Please respect copyright.PENANALHs3BdeLQb

“Arrgh!” the woman hisses, trying to remove her stuck heel before a man runs out of the house in a bathrobe but with a different pair of slippers.327Please respect copyright.PENANAS22bY5LqtR

“Sandra!” The man calls hurriedly in a wavering voice, “I don't know what I've done; I'm s—” He is unable to finish his statement before he is thrown heel on the temple, which immediately bleeds.327Please respect copyright.PENANAWSGL9TRovR

Well, this town is really small because almost all the neighborhoods are out staring at the scene in front of them. Some pity the man and scorn the woman, while some laugh.327Please respect copyright.PENANAf7xNxAjWoW

“I hate you! I'm divorcing you!'' the woman throws the other heel, and the man waves it effortlessly.327Please respect copyright.PENANAYdfV8zkXAc

Another man comes out from the black car parked at the front of the house and smiles at the lady called Sandra before collecting the trolley from her and smooching her.327Please respect copyright.PENANAKgaLl8tCdF

The woman enters the car, throwing the ring at the man, who is kneeling with a bleeding wound; as the woman's car drives off, I don't know what came over me to move towards the bleeding man.327Please respect copyright.PENANAmssq7aCJYD

I crouch to the man's level and take out my floral handkerchief to clean the blood. After cleaning the blood, I take the edge of the pieces and wet it with my saliva before putting it on the slant. It is going to cause a scar if care isn't taken. Everyone dispenses after the show is over, but I raise the man's head, and I am flabbergasted by the art craft in front of me.327Please respect copyright.PENANA9MEmnkfY6x

This urge came over me to make him mine. I blink uncontrollably, staring at his perfectly chiseled jaw, which complements his mixed blue-green eyes. He should be in his mid-thirties, with his crafted nose and long eyelashes.327Please respect copyright.PENANAxPjS1ve9wz

Damnation! I mutter under my breath before pulling him in for a hug. After three minutes, he pulls away awkwardly, and I shoot him a dazzling smile.327Please respect copyright.PENANAGfRBvzqpkn
