Echoes of a Broken Childhood

1

Thanks for Taking My Ruin, Dear Sister!

The day my parents divorced, two agreements lay on the table.

One meant staying in the old neighborhood with my dad, who was drowning in gambling debts.

The other meant moving to the coast with my mom, who’d remarried a wealthy man.

In my last life, my little sister, Chloe, cried and begged for Mom. I quietly packed my bags and followed Dad.

Later, Dad quit gambling and became a millionaire, spoiling me rotten.

Chloe, however, was emotionally abused and trapped at home by her stepfather. She eventually succumbed to depression and passed away.
