My daughter asked me to see my grandchild for two weeks. She had to go on a business trip at the last moment. It was a short period of time, but I didn’t think twice about it because I love spending time with my grandchildren. She postponed it with a big suitcase and hurriedly got on the plane.
There was nothing strange about me…until I looked up my suitcase. Every fall, winter, spring, all its toys, all its medications, all its medication clothes! It didn’t feel like a two-week stay… I didn’t feel like it wasn’t at all. I’ve always called her in vain, there’s no answer. I spent the next few weeks crying. And when I almost lost hope, I finally got this video call.
It was from unknown numbers. I replied, my heart was slammed. The screen flickers, and there she was my daughter character.
But she looked different. tired. As if she hadn’t slept for days. Her voice broke when she spoke. Mom, she whispered, her eyes shaking as if someone was looking at her. I didn’t leave him. I had to
I’ll freeze it. My stomach started to spin.
What do you think? Where are you? “
She bit her lip and looked away. Certainly somewhere. But I can’t say it anymore. I just fell into a whisper. I liked it. I trust the wrong person and now I’m trying to fix it.
Kara, what are you talking about? Is someone after you?
She nodded her tears slowly into her eyes. I was with someone. A type called Damon. It seemed attractive. He’s smart. If this business continues, he said I can help me get rid of my debts. Mom is drowned. They didn’t know, but I barely stopped the light.
I felt my partner in my neck. I didn’t know she had to fight that way.
I signed several papers that I don’t understand: she continued trembling in her voice. Everything turned out to be the forefront. He washed his money and used my name for everything. I tried to go. That was when it got worse. “
She wiped her face with her sleeves. He threatened me. When I went to the police he even injured Felix, who went to school. So I brought him to you. I had to make sure he was safe.
Tears flocked to my face. I couldn’t believe what I had heard. My daughter’s bright, brave girl – involved in something very dark. “Where are you now?”
I can’t say it. I work with someone… a lawyer. Probably the federal government too. i don’t know yet. But I’ll be back. i swear. Just take care of Felix
The phone went down before I could say more. I stared at the empty screen and my heart broke.
Over the next few days I did what I could to keep things normal for Felix. He was five years old – he didn’t really understand. He just missed his mother. Every night he asked: “When will Mom come back?” And every night I immediately say darling, praying that it’s not a lie.
Then something happened that I didn’t expect.
About two weeks after the phone call, I didn’t receive the letter at the post office. There was a note from the inside kara. In short, handwritten.
I gave it everything to the Fed. Damon has been arrested. I will be at home within a week. Thank you for protecting my boy. i love you mom.
I clutched this note in my chest and sobed. Relief does not begin to explain it.
Kara returned home six days later. She looked like hell, but it was safe. She ran to Felix, kneeled down and hugged him as if he had never let go. That night we sat on the veranda, wrapped in a blanket and had some tea.
she said quietly. I thought I could fix it myself. I didn’t want to worry.
I put my hand on her. You don’t have to wear everything by yourself, kara. You never did it
She looked at me and was full of tears. I know that now.
Sometimes the person we love most is silent. But silence is dangerous. If you seek help, it is not a weakness of that truth.
Once you have done something a little hard, talk to someone. You don’t have to do it alone.
