My body refused to respond to my commands. The piercing beep intensified, causing me to wince helplessly, unable to shield myself from it. A gentle touch rested on my forehead, and I blinked, letting tears stream down my cheeks. In front of me, I saw the familiar face of my mother, her caring expression offering comfort. I managed a weak smile, despite the turmoil within. She's an amazing mother, always putting our needs first, even when she struggles to care for herself. Now, I can't shake the thought that this might be the person behind my mother's current state, the one who seemingly brought this curse upon me.
