Confession

Sitting together around our family table laden with feasts

All are muttering their thanks

I can't help but miss my mother so I utter

''I'm thankful for my mother for bringing me into this world.''

Silence.

Pin drop silence.

''Don't talk about the dead Sarah.'' My dad scolds me.

Frowning I nod my head but I did bring up my beloved mom again. She loved me but unfortunately she had committed suicide due to depression.

I keep talking about her, my mother and father is getting angrier.

The Turkey arrives and my father being the head takes the knife.

''My mother's Turkey tastes the best.'' I say and that is when my father snaps.

''If you don't be quite I'll hang you up just like I did to your cheating mother.'' He says.
