“Loved me‘? How exactly did she ever show that love?
“She was more hypocritical than you ever were.

“Every time she scolded Julia in front of me, it was always followed by urging me to be the bigger person, to yield. She was a true master of performative kindness.
“Leave. I have no connection to the Turners anymore. Don’t bother me again.”
Morris was left speechless, physically recoiling a step under the force of her words.
Yet, the image of his mother, frail and fading, pushed him forward. Desperation clawed at his chest.
“Larissa, all the fault is mine, every bit of it.
“Do I need to get down on my knees right here? Will you only come to the hospital if I kneel before you?”
His words only drove her heart into a deeper freeze.
“Even if you did, it would mean nothing to me.
“What you do is your own affair. Don’t try to bind me with guilt. I stopped caring about you long ago. To me, you are worthless.”
Morris staggered as if struck, a hand flying to his chest.
The girl who’d once followed him obediently and looked at him with nothing but trust was gone.
The magnitude of his mistake crashed down on him.
If he had known, he would never have treated her with such cruelty.

“Get out of here, and don’t ever come here again.
“Larissa has nothing to do with the Turners anymore!”
Before Morris could utter another word. Ruby firmly steered Larissa toward the car. “Come on, sweetheart I’m driving you to school.”
Morris could only watch their retreating figures, despair flooding his chest.
He had shattered Larissa’s heart completely. Mending such a break felt impossible.
Yet, his mother’s condition brooked no delay. What was he to do?
And the task given to him by that mysterious figure… Earning Larissa’s forgiveness and being welcomed back into her life seemed a fantasy.
