š² I saw a little girl wearing a pendant exactly like the one my mother wore before she disappeared. What I discovered next left me speechless.
One day, my mother went shopping, and it’s been three years now that she never came back. She left without any explanation, and since that day, my life has turned upside down. I lost my job, and with it, the dreams I once had faded away.
From time to time, I walk through the park in our neighborhood. There are always children playing there, and watching them helps me escape my thoughts a little.
One day, I was watching a little girl on the swing. I donāt know why, but I felt the urge to approach her. I went to talk to her, and thatās when I noticed a pendant around her neck.
I felt like I had seen it somewhere before, and suddenly, I remembered that my mother had worn a similar pendant the day she disappeared.
The little girl was with her mother. So, I asked the mother for permission to examine the pendant. When I looked at it closely, I was shocked: it was my motherās pendant.
What I discovered next left me speechless.
The rest of my story is in the article in the first comment ššš.
I followed the mother and the little girl to a building, a center for those who had lost their memory.
The place had a calm, almost warm atmosphere, far from the turmoil of the outside world.
The woman opened the door and led me inside.
She explained that my mother had been in an accident three years ago, causing total memory loss.
She had been brought here, to this center, to receive treatment.
It was here that my mother, in her confusion, had taken the little girl as her own child and gave her the pendant.
The woman told me that my mother had passed away last year.
These words resonated within me like a distant echo.
An emptiness settled in, a bitter confusion.
I stood there, frozen, both touched and lost.
In the end, I left the center, my heart heavy.
