She thought love meant protection.
She thought control meant care.
Trying to bury the trauma her mother left behind, she promised herself she would be different. Better. But healing isn't linear-and pain has a way of echoing.
Told through the eyes of her daughter, this story unravels the quiet damage of loving too much, the weight of inherited fear, and the truth that sometimes the deepest wounds come from those who never meant to hurt us at all.
