In a small coastal town nestled in the rolling hills of Villahermoso lives Mari, a girl suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts, has hit rock bottom in life. She had lost hope and doesn't see any reason to go on living anymore. Her life chan...

"Where are you going?"
I heard mom ask me that as I was about to go on where I'll suppose to meet Wes, with his siblings, and dogs.
I faced mom and hid my hands at my back "Sa Aqua Planet lang mama, birthday kasi ni Wesley ngayon"
She just glared at me with her usual blank expression. I want to ask her on why is she asking me on where I'll go but her silence somehow means she wants to say something, and so I waited.
"You have an appointment with Doctor Cabrera today"
My eyebrows swiftly met "What do you mean? Who's that?"
She sighed as she faced our big glass window with tall trees dancing with the wind.
"He will heal you"
"What are you talking abou-"
"Oh don't act stupid, Kamari! You know what I mean and I don't want to say those words! What this means is you obviously need help"
Napahinga nalang ako dahil sa inis "Yes mama, I do need help but I'm doing very well these days! L-Look! I-I'm 2 weeks clean--"
"Don't you ever show me those scars, Kamari!" she shouted in front of me, but it's too late. I showed him my wrist that is slowly healing, somehow.
She stared at my wrist in disbelief and disgust, and then she slapped me real hard that's enough to make my tears escape from my pooling eyes.
She didn't say anything after that. Nakatitig lang siya sa'kin habang nasa sahig at umiiyak.
'I really am healing, mama'
"Whether you like it or not, you will meet Doctor Cabrera today. Now go to your room and wear something that'll hide your nasty scars and go with your sister!" her voice is calm yet intimidating and that leaves me no choice but to follow her.
Kaagad kong tinext si Wes na mamaya nalang kaming alas-dose pupunta sa Aqua Planet at chempre ay sinabi ko rin ang dahilan, para hindi siya nag-overthink.
I wore a cardigan that is long enough to cover something that mom certainly don't like.
Hinintay ko pang humupa ang mga luha kong nagbabadya bago bumaba. Nandon si ate at naghihintay, pati ma rin si mama.
She is drinking a whole bottle of red wine for breakfast. Just great.
"Make sure this young lady right here will go on that session, alright?" lasing na paalala ni mama kay ate, and she just nodded lazily.
