I Went All Out To Reject Moral Blackmail

Summary

Born with a rhino’s hide and a battered soul, it was cruel fate that placed me in a family of glass hearts. My poet father drowned in autumn’s melancholy, and my musician mother wept at sad chords. They were fragile dolls needing delicate care, while I possessed a heart of ice.

Once, a burly scammer faked injury on our car. My parents dissolved into guilt, ready to sell our home for him. I simply hit the gas, and the man sprinted away like an athlete. My coldness made me their perfect shield.
