His Ongoing Story, One Dot to End It

Summary

Ten days after I lost the baby, my mother somehow found out.

She packed her bags overnight and endured a grueling forty hour bus ride across the country, traveling over a thousand miles from the Blue Ridge Mountains all the way to New York City.

Thunder rumbled outside the penthouse windows. A violent storm was swallowing the Northeast.

After the doctor noted my severe depressive tendencies, Alistair grounded me inside our home. I was completely forbidden from leaving the apartment.

I had no choice but to ask him to pick up my mother from the station.
