Me: Are you scared?
Mom: Yes, but I have to be strong. I know things will be alright. Of course I’ll be sad and scared when I think about it, but I just have to be strong and pray. I can’t always cry in the corner and pity myself about what has happened. How will I feel better if do that? I’ll be alright.

[That day definitely changed everything. I just got to pray and be strong too. Things will be alright]
