In Kaya’s childhood, there was not even a spoon worth of peace.
Also she didn’t have a father. Her mother, Grace, said that her father left the house when she was young. And when Kaya became 6 years old, a man appeared next to Grace. She doesn’t remember all the details, only that his eyes were shockingly deep and blue. Grace said that he was her father. Because Grace’s eyes were brown, and Kaya’s were blue, she didn’t even doubt that he was her real father.
Of course, that trust didn’t get her any rewards. One day, that fake father fought with Grace inside the house and broke all of the furnitures, and after that, he didn’t show himself. He had left. After leaving a living being inside the mother’s womb.
She doesn’t remember the details, but she did remember that Grace was really sensitive and suffering at that moment. Maybe, the existence of Kaya was what drove her to keep working for her sake, but was she not enough? Kaya still remembered the scene where her mother was crying alone with her face buried on a pillow in a dark room.
And at some time, the thing that soothed Grace wasn’t her tears, but alcohol. Fortunately there were no injections. She would mostly drink cheap beer until she fell asleep because of the alcohol.
