Kapitel 78: Thorn (1)

CAT 

I would be lying if I said the mutual hate relationship between my mother and me didn't bother me. If we could have a normal mother-daughter relationship, that would be great. This is probably why I've started having lucid dreams about her telling me she loves me and was afraid she'd never get the chance to tell me that. 

Why would she ever think that? I'm the reason she's been paralyzed for years. If I wasn't in that car, Lorenzo would never have sought after us and that damned accident would never have happened. If I wasn't a Romano, she would have been in a loving marriage forever instead of the one that turned toxic. 

But when I look down, I realize it's not a dream at all. She has fallen asleep with my arms still wrapped around her.
