Deadly obsession Gone without a word
Sophia’s POVThe unbearable nature of the silence reached an extreme level.Following the catastrophic dinner my mother stood up and walked away without a word. The scene lacked yelling tears and anger instead it unfolded with quiet heartbreaking disappointment.

At least then I would know what she was thinking. She exited the room without looking back once and that action broke me more than anything else.My night passed with minimal sleep. The immense burden of all things pressed upon me while I lay in bed staring at the ceiling.
