Your mother was left with a huge responsibility...work full time and care for three children. Her checks were probably written for necessities like food and rent, rather than for frivolous things. This is an engaging story, and I understand why it stands out, even to this day.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Any story that can give me chills is worth 6 stars. Wonderfully written. Your emotions came through your words with an impact. The anger, the guilt, the anguish! And then the thrill at the end. Seeing your mother. Beautiful.
Heckuva job!!! Neil

Oh, Harry, how sad and dreadful for you and your family. Your mother tried her best, and that included doing something that got her in trouble. She didn't do it because she wanted something for herself. She did it for her children because she couldn't see any other way. Heartbreaking!
Hug, Carol

    Thanks to you as well, Harry. Hey, I just posted a short story...beginning chapter and am asking all the writers to join in adding chapter after chapter (multiple authors) to write the story. It's under 500 words per chapter. Come join in.

    It's just someething fun for everyone and different to see what the next chapter would be. Just hit multi=author at the bottom of the page and add 500 words or less to continue the story. Come on, Harry. Join in!

    Lol! What is the subject of the story?
reply by Begin Again on 20-Feb-2025
    It's a Humphrey Bogart kind of mystery. The dame meets the guy and suddenly he feels the need to run.... it's yours from that point. Nobody has latched on yet.
