"Are you sure about this?" my sister asked, turning to me. "Are you sure you don't want to leave?"
I nodded. "Yes, sister. I'm not leaving. Heather is also my baby."
"No," she sighed. "She's Hazel's baby. I get it, you love her—I love her too—but you need to protect your mental health. You can't stay here. That man, his wife, her entire family—they're all here. You need to leave."
"Sister," I said softly, "I was there when Hazel gave birth to Heather. I used every bit of my power to bring her out alive. I see her as my daughter because I went through every step of that pregnancy with Hazel. Yes, Hazel birthed her, but Heather will always be my baby. And how can I be at peace anywhere else, knowing her life is in danger? How can I go searching for peace when my peace is right here?"
