Superstitious Mother, Dangerous FutureChapter 1

My mom had this crazy obsession with online remedies. Every single day, she'd shove all kinds of opium-based tonics down my little brother's throat, swearing they'd make him stronger. I tried to talk her out of it, but nothing got through. So one night, while everyone was asleep, I grabbed all the tonics and tossed them in the trash.

The next day, my mom went ballistic. She got the whole family to gang up on me. And when my brother signed up for a long-distance race and couldn't finish, guess who she blamed? Me. She said throwing out the tonics ruined his health. My brother never let it go.

One night, while I was asleep, he came into my room and slit my throat. I bled out in my bed.

But then I woke up, and somehow, I was back in time-- right on the day my mom first started forcing the tonics on him.

This time, I didn't even try to stop her. I just smirked to myself. Go ahead. Eat up. Eat as much as you can.
