"Dear Mom,
I miss you like crazy. I wish you were here to see how much I've changed in the last year. Daddy says you would be proud. I still have that old, worn out flannel you used to wear, it brought out your deep ocean blue eyes that I miss so dearly. I wear it almost every day except on washing days. It smells just like you. I hope heaven is everything you had dreamed it would be. I love you and miss you mom.
Love,
Madeleine."
Madeleine Rampart was a gorgeous 17 year old sweetheart. Her life was almost perfect, she had a loving dad, a roof over her head, and almost everything thing else she needed. Except her mother. That was the most important thing she was missing in life. Her mother wouldn't be able to get in the car and drive away with tears streaming from her eyes after dropping her daughter off at college. She wouldn't be able to help her find that especially perfect wedding dress for her big day. Her mother would never live to meet her own grandchildren either. This broke Madeleine apart, but also made her stronger. Many people didn't even know what she had gone through. To others she was a smart, beautiful girl who had it all. That's the girl Chandler Yates had seen smiling so bright. Unfortunately, everyone has a side of themselves they keep concealed in the closet. Only few get to see that mysterious side that hides inside us. Chandler would be yet to witness Madeleines dark side first hand.
