Chapter 242

"I'm sorry, Sean. I don't want to leave you behind, but my anxiety disorder is worsening by the day. I am afraid that I will hurt you. Forgive Mommy for leaving you." Back then, he was not too young or too old. He was in his rebellious phase. He was the naughtiest kid in school, and he often got himself in trouble for fighting and truancy. Everyone thought that he was a delinquent, but no one knew that he did all that to get his parents' attention. His father frequently found pleasure with other women. His mistresses would call his mother on the phone every day and upset her with explicit language. His kind and gentle mother could not withstand the stress and eventually was diagnosed with depression and anxiety disorders. Her health failed, and her temper worsened. He thought that when Mommy said she would 'leave early', she was going to run away from home like how he used to. He did not expect that it was a suicide note. Mommy jumped off a tall building after writing it.
