Hey ! You are great story teller. You have a talent here and should explore it thoroughly.
I love this story...betrayed by the only living relative. How sad. This depicts the reality of life. Most times, it's the people closest to us, who pretend to care that ends up hurting us.
I love the plot twists and had initially thought it was Mel that would hurt the story narrator. Glad to know justice was served at the end, albeit through Christine.
Nicely written. When you write more fictions, you could also post them in The Ink Well community. Well done. 🙂
