"Without me, you're nothing."
mother said, her steps echoing as she walked away.

her words rung in my head, while i picked up glass shards from the plate she dropped. eyeing the cuts scattered on my hands, red pooled over every finger.

and no matter how much my fingers stung, i couldn't bring myself to cry.

all my tears were already drained for the day.
