At that moment, my mind went blank.

‘Not Angel? How could that be possible?‘ I remembered clearly watching her pinning me down and plunging a knife into my chest with that vicious face that was identical to mine. The pain was etched deep in my heart.
However, my mother didn’t seem the slightest bit surprised. “It wasn’t Angel from the start!” She screamed and hung up the phone before Officer John could finish.
The crowd began shoving the police as they chanted for my leath. The nearby officers tried to maintain order, demanding that my mother delete her post. However, she refused to do so.
“My daughter is dead! Why won’t you leave her alone even fter death?”
At this point, I could no longer ignore the exhaustion weighing on my soul.
Everyone was rallying for justice for Angel, and no one cared about me. Now that I had no choice but to follow my mother around, I knew that she wouldn’t believe me even if I told her the truth.
After all, she refused to hear anything that didn’t match her reality.
She wandered toward the river like a lifeless puppet amidst the crowd. I wanted to stop her, but her body passed right through my arms.
I could tell that she had lost the will to live now that she was living in a world without Angel.
Although I was weary, I couldn’t help but feel anxious. I didn’t want her to remain oblivious and bury herself alongside Angel without knowing the truth.
At that moment, my mother managed to climb halfway up the railing when her phone suddenly chimed with a notification that caught her attention.
When my mother looked at the screen, she stiffened. Then, she slumped and fell back to the ground. However, I saw uncontainable joy in her eyes as soon as she got up.
The message was from Angel, who had killed herself.
