I did not quite understand what she wanted to do.
Noella begged desperately behind her.
“Mom, don’t leave. I’m scared alone, you can’t leave me alone.“.
I followed behind my mother as well, wanting to see what she was going to do.
The room was not big, unlike Noellas who had her own dressing room and small study.
There were very few things, just a desk, a wardrobe and no other. unnecessary decorations.
She walked over to my desk and sat down, staring blankly.
Suddenly, the certificate of merit fell out from the gap. She seemed to be startled. After she came to her senses, she picked it up gently.
That pile of certificates had been torn in half, wrinkled and dirty.
I still remember when I first received those certificates, I was so excited that I happily hung them on the wall of my room.
But on that day, Noella went on our parents crying.
“Madeline has good grades and popularity in school. I am so stupid and in poor health. No wonder Madeline and other classmates don’t play with me.”
“They all said that I was sick and that I was contagious. I explained to Madeline that my disease was not contagious, but she didn’t believe me.”
Her eyes were red from crying and her voice was hoarse.
“Mom, it’s okay. I’m fine.”
She looked up at me again and lowered her head with tears in her eyes.
“I must have done something wrong to upset her. I didn’t consider her feelings, that’s why she wants to hurt me.”
“I just want to beg her not to be angry with me because of this. I’m really. afraid that those little hooligans she knows will bully me.”
Jacob’s face darkened as he rushed towards me and could not help but
raise his hand.
“How dare you do such a shameless thing? I sent you to study, but your hooked up with some hooligans out there?”

I covered my stinging face and tore off the certificates in silence.
In the midst of the pile of certificates, there was a beautiful dancer poster. It was my childhood wish to learn dancing, to be as noble and beautiful ast
a swan.
I made this request to my parents. When Noella heard it, she‘ was crying. and fussing about going to learn dancing as well.
Unfortunately, her illness prevented her from doing strenuous exercise.
In order to take care of her feelings, my mother firmly rejected my idea of learning dance.
“Your sister is not in good health. If you go to learn dancing, she can only watch from the window. It’s not fair to her, so it’s better no one go.”
It was as if there was never a time, in this family, that it was tilted in my favor.
I sat in silence, watching my mother’s tears drip onto the certificate.
She murmured softly.
“Madeline, you’re blaming us, aren’t you?”
I
The words reached my ears and I found them particularly ridiculous. Shouldn’t I blame you guys?
Why was it that, all my life, I had always been doing others a favor?
Even when I died; no one was there to claim me, leaving me to rot and stink and becoming a lonely ghost with nowhere to go.
Just afraid that my death would affect Noella’s birthday party.
Shouldn’t I blame you?
Just as my father finished taking a shower, his face was full of despair. He gently patted my mother’s back and sighed.
“Let’s pack these things up and throw them away.”
“She’s already gone. There’s no point in doing anything. I’ll go get her back tomorrow and bury her properly. Madeline is sensible and won’t blame us.”
Noella suddenly screamed again outside. Jacob hurriedly ran out, but Lilliana did not move.
I followed him and watched him gently coaxing Noella and saying to her, “Don’t be afraid. I’ve already arranged a funeral ceremony for her. No matter what happened, it’s all in the past.”

“Noella, everything will move forward. You have to look ahead and live a good life.”
Noella threw herself into his arms, still terrified.
His words just felt so harsh to my ears.
Everything moved forward, why did I have to stay in place forever?
Everyone could treat this as a nightmare, except for me.
Because I was the only victim in this disaster.
But on what basis could criminals move forward with peace of mind?
disagreed.
I cried out in anger, the uncontrollable sorrow in my soul was about to burst out and the decorative paintings in the room and the various ornaments on the table were all swept to the ground.
The two people hugging each other finally noticed something unusual. Jacob took out the protective stone from his chest and held it high.
“No one is allowed to touch my daughter.”
I cried and leaned over to him, ignoring the intense burns caused by the protective stone. I just wanted to ask one question.
“Am I not your daughter?”
“Why do you want to hurt me even when I’m dead?”
There was a powerful wail of resentment and the protective stone exploded into pieces. Lilliana rushed out of the bedroom crying.
A powerful cry of resentment, the protective stone shattered into pieces and my mother rushed out of the bedroom crying.

“Madeline, it’s me who’s sorry for you. I’m guilty. I’m here to accompany
She rushed into the kitchen, tried to reach for a knife and Jacob hurriedly tried to stop her.
However, Noella clung to him tightly, making him unable to move.
“Noella, let me go. Your mom is emotionally unstable. I have to stop her!”
Noella’s hand was getting tighter and tighter.
“No… I’m so scared, Dad, you can’t leave me….

The knife had already cut Lilliana’s wrist. Her eyes were blurred with tears and a flash of relief appeared in them.

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
“Open the door, police.”
The faces of the three of them instantly darkened.
