13.
I was 12 when my mom left my grandma and
took me.
She was crazy.
“Good daughter, time for revenge!
Let’s show those sluts who is talented!
Her daughter can play piano? Please.”
I never saw my grandma again.
Mom said that if I won first place, I could see
my grandma.
I did, but she said city first.

When I was 19, I won a national award.
But my grandma died that morning.
She waited for me to win.
She lived until that day.
Seven years, I could only see ash.
I became numb.
I did not know how to love.
I don’t know how to express love.
I fought with my mom.
She sent me to my dad, to hell.

He was drunk and stumbled into my room.
He called out Darcy.
My world fell apart.
