A Child’s Tale

When Clarissa was only 8 years old, her beloved mother went missing.

“I won’t be long, dear”, Clarissa’s father would later tell the cops was his wife’s last words.

Several months later, they found her bones in a dry creek under a bridge. If only the investigators had cared enough to ask the poor woman’s young daughter what she remembered hearing.

“I don’t belong here.” Her mother’s voice forever haunting and echoing in Clarissa’s mind.
