Save You…
From what? What did she save you from?
Was it from Rosie Stone? The character he made up just for your bedtime stories?
The bedroom full of paintings, legos, and fairy lights?
Camping trips filled with fishing, singing by the fire, and running through the trees?
Riding your bike along the bay area shore shouting at that accomplishment?
Long walks around the neighborhood telling stories and being pushed on swing?
The many graphic novels and comic books you came engrossed in as soon as they were in your hands?
The barbques and evening swims at the club tossing you in the air over and over again?

The bowls of ice cream while watching your favorite movies?
The roller girl costume his soon to be wife made especially for you so you could live out that make believe of being a super hero on skates?
Or maybe it was the handmade Pokemon blanket and 100s of Pokemon cards to support your love of fandom?
Was it the leprachaun who left the green footprints on the floor she saved you from?
Was it the many homemade meals?
Was it Christmas tree decorating or the many crafting projects you did together?
Was it a normal childhood she was trying to save you from?
NO, what she “saved” you from was all based on a huge lie and this barely skims the surface of that lie.
There is a lot someone will do when they are losing control…including lie and getting people to lie for them.
