VIVIAN POVAfter my conversation with my dad, I walked back downstairs after I dropped the black card. I heard the door bell ring and I wondered who it might be.As I walked towards the door, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. Who could be visiting me early this morning.

VIVIANI was quiet for a while, unsure of how to respond to her question. She had asked me why I needed to know the truth about her past, and I realized that I didn't have a valid reason. At least, not one that I could articulate.But as I sat there, trying to gather my thoughts, I knew that it was important for me to know the truth."I don't know," I said finally, looking up at her.

"I can as well start with your chosen daughter-in-law," I said, the words dripping with venom.As I spoke, I raised the gun, pointing it directly at Mira.
