One lie.
One moment of fear.

That was all it took
to destroy everything.

When her mother needed her most,
she chose silence…
and let the truth be buried.

By the time regret hit—
it was too late.

Her mother was gone.

Left behind with guilt she could never escape,
she spends her life haunted by a single thought:

“If only I had told the truth…”

But fate gives her one impossible gift—

A second chance.

She wakes up in the past,
back to the day everything began to fall apart.

This time, she won’t stay silent.
This time, she won’t lie.

No matter the cost.

As she fights to protect her mother,
she begins to uncover something darker—

The truth behind the tragedy
was never what it seemed.

Now, she must face:

the people who manipulated her
the secrets hidden within her family
and the consequences of changing fate

Because saving her mother…
might change everything else.

This emotional tearjerker delivers:

Rebirth / second chance redemption
Daughter–mother bond & regret arc
Truth vs lies conflict
Hidden family conspiracy
Healing + emotional payoff

Transcription
00:00After I was born, my sister Olivia got really sick.
00:03No, I don't eat!
00:04Only when she fed me, she would smile and eat more.
00:07So whenever Olivia held the spoon, mom would hold my shoulders down.
00:11She gently made me open my mouth.
00:14When I was five, the teacher said pups should say no to things that make them unhappy.
00:19So when I was so full I couldn't swallow one more bite, I refused Olivia's feeding.
00:24She cried until her face turned blue, like something really bad happened to her.
00:28Mom rushed at me like crazy.
00:31Her nails dug deep into my skin.
00:33You already have mom and dad's love.
00:35Why do you have to compete with your sister?
00:38Can't you just be good and eat more for your sister's sickness?
00:41Dad looked at mom with a sad heart.
00:43He picked Olivia.
00:45He said he would take her to the new pack lands to cheer her up.
00:49I rolled on the floor in pain, but mom thought I was lying.
00:53She got so mad she slammed the door shut.
00:56She said she had to punish me for being bad.
00:58I held my stomach.
01:00Tears covered my whole face.
01:02I'm sorry mom.
01:03Next time I will eat nicely to make Olivia happy.
01:06I pressed my little hands hard on my belly.
01:08I curled up into a ball, but in my head I saw mom's stomach hurt.
01:13She took the healer's pills and felt better.
01:15When I finally got the pill bottle open, my stomach suddenly hurt so badly.
01:20Pills fell all over the floor.
01:22I was about to pick them up when I heard the door open.
01:25My eyes lit up.
01:26Dad was back.
01:27I reached out my hand to him.
01:29Daddy, there are so many bugs biting me inside my tummy.
01:35Dad rushed to me, scared, but mom grabbed him.
01:37She never tells the truth.
01:39Did you forget the other day?
01:40She stole jerky.
01:42When I caught her, she blamed Olivia.
01:43Now she's lying about a stomach ache.
01:45She just wants to play sick, so we won't take Olivia out to play.
01:48That's not how it happened.
01:51Last time, Olivia took the jerky.
01:54She brought it to my room.
01:56She tore the package open.
01:57She stuffed it in her mouth to show off.
01:59I told her to eat less, or she wouldn't be hungry for dinner.
02:02But Olivia puffed her cheeks.
02:04She waved the jerky in front of me.
02:06When mom opened the door, she shoved the jerky into my hand.
02:09She wiped the grease on my clothes.
02:11I happily told mom Olivia was better, but mom got mad.
02:14She dragged me out of my room.
02:16She made me kneel in the living room.
02:19She called me a liar.
02:21She said I stole the jerky myself, then blamed my sick sister.
02:25I cried and said I didn't steal it.
02:27Mom's face turned cold, like the snow outside, ice cold.
02:31She threw me outside the door.
02:33She said she would throw away a lying pup.
02:35I cried for so long.
02:37I begged mom not to leave me.
02:39Finally, dad felt bad.
02:41He slipped a piece of meat into my hand.
02:43He told me to admit my mistake fast.
02:45He said not to make mom mad.
02:47The sky got dark.
02:49My stomach growled.
02:50Mom held a bowl of hot meat soup.
02:52She asked if I knew I was wrong.
02:54The soup smelled so good.
02:56I sobbed and said I was wrong.
02:59That time I really did lie.
03:01But mom forgave me.
03:02Thinking of this, even though I had no idea what I did wrong, I still held mom's skirt carefully.
03:08I said I was wrong again and again.
03:10I thought mom would hug me like last time.
03:13And she said she loved me too.
03:15But she saw the pills on the floor.
03:17She got mad and kicked me hard.
03:21Emma, are you this naughty now?
03:23First you won't eat to starve your sister.
03:26Now you want to wreck the house?
03:28I have to punish you today.
03:30Dad tried to speak.
03:32Mom stopped him with one look.
03:35Adrian, if you stop me again, we're getting a divorce.
03:38Dad sighed.
03:39He had no choice.
03:40He took me from mom.
03:41I thought he would carry me to the healer.
03:43But he locked me in the bedroom himself.
03:45Dad touched my head.
03:47Emma, for this family.
03:48Just be good, okay?
03:49I held dad's sleeve tight.
03:51But dad, my tummy really hurts.
03:54I cried my eyes out.
03:56Mom's voice came from the living room.
03:58She sounded mad.
03:59Are you favoring Emma again?
04:00When we mated, you promised to love Olivia like your own daughter.
04:04If you keep favoring the little one, there's no point in this marriage.
04:08Dad heard that.
04:09He pushed me away hard.
04:10He left fast.
04:12He didn't even notice he pushed me to the floor.
04:14My head hit the table corner.
04:16Everything got fuzzy.
04:18Through the crack in the door, I saw dad lift Olivia up high.
04:21Mom's face finally smiled.
04:23She turned her head.
04:24Our eyes met.
04:25Mom frowned.
04:26She slammed the door shut.
04:28The room went dark.
04:29I couldn't see anything.
04:30But I heard mom's words clearly.
04:32Emma is spoiled by you.
04:34Eating is such a happy thing.
04:36But she wastes food.
04:37Good.
04:38Lock her up for a day.
04:39Let her learn that every grain is hard work.
04:42Then came her soft voice.
04:44Olivia, you're my baby forever.
04:47It's okay if you don't like to eat.
04:49But when you're hungry, tell mom.
04:51The house got quiet.
04:52Pitch black.
04:53My heart raced.
04:54But I was too short.
04:55I couldn't reach the light.
04:56So I climbed into bed myself.
04:58If I fell asleep, the pain would stop.
05:00I always got through it this way before.
05:02But this time, my tummy hurt so much.
05:05I copied how mom fed Olivia.
05:06I gently patted my swollen belly.
05:08Please stop hurting.
05:10It's your fault mom thinks I'm bad.
05:12But it didn't listen.
05:13It hurt even more.
05:14So when mom scolds me for being bad, does it hurt her this much too?
05:18Tears dropped down.
05:20I'm sorry mom.
05:21It's my fault for being bad.
05:22I made you hurt so many times.
05:24My head started hurting too.
05:26I wiped the sweat off my head.
05:28It was sticky.
05:29I remembered last time.
05:30Mom locked me out because of grease on my clothes.
05:33I panicked and tried to wipe my face clean.
05:35But the sweat wouldn't come off.
05:37I felt colder and colder.
05:39Even under the blankets, I shivered.
05:41Slowly, I got so, so tired.
05:43I fell completely asleep.
05:46When I opened my eyes again, my tummy didn't hurt at all.
05:49I started jumping around happily.
05:51My body went right through the locked door.
05:54I saw mom and dad just got back.
05:56Mom was feeding Olivia sweet potato.
05:58Olivia, one more bite.
06:00Okay.
06:00Olivia turned her head away.
06:02No, no.
06:03It makes me sick.
06:04Mom sighed.
06:05Her brow was tight.
06:06I reached up to smooth it.
06:08But my little hand couldn't touch mom.
06:10I slowly realized, I think I died.
06:13Just like the kitten Olivia killed.
06:16Olivia begged to buy that kitten.
06:18But a few days later, she said the poop was gross.
06:21Mom gave me the job of taking care of it.
06:23I didn't mind the kitten's mess at all.
06:25Every day after training, I changed her water and filled her food.
06:28After a while, the kitten let me pet her.
06:30She even acted cute with me.
06:32With her around, I wasn't sad anymore that mom and dad only saw Olivia.
06:36Okay, I lied.
06:37I was still a little sad.
06:39Just a little bit.
06:40When Olivia saw the kitten liked me more, she grabbed it from my arms.
06:44The kitten meowed in fear.
06:45That night, mom's face was really dark.
06:48After Olivia got her shots, the kitten hid under the bed, too scared to come out.
06:53I knelt in front of mom.
06:54I cried and said sorry to the kitten.
06:56But mom said, animals that hurt people can't stay.
06:59She said, I had no heart.
07:01Is your sister's safety less important than a mean animal?
07:04I cried and said it's different.
07:06Olivia has mom and dad's love.
07:08The kitten only has me.
07:09If I can't protect her, no one will.
07:12Mom said I was being impossible.
07:14She had dad tie me up with a belt.
07:16She grabbed the kitten and brought it to Olivia.
07:18She let Olivia do whatever she wanted.
07:20I fought so hard, but I could only watch the kitten get killed.
07:24I cried until my voice was gone.
07:26But mom only cared that Olivia ate three more bites today.
07:30And dad only cared about mom's mood.
07:32When the kitten died, at least I was sad.
07:35But when I died, no one cared at all.
07:39Dad put toys on the sofa.
07:41He had a sweet potato, too.
07:43He knocked on my door.
07:44Emma, are you asleep?
07:45Dad brought you something good.
07:47My big sister was playing with a Barbie.
07:49She jumped off her chair.
07:50She whined at mom.
07:51Mom, I want the sweet ride dad has.
07:54Mom was glad she wanted to eat.
07:55She swapped sweet potatoes with dad.
07:58Mom watched Olivia take bite after bite.
08:00Her eyes got red and teary.
08:02Maybe because mom couldn't see me, I yelled out loud.
08:05I hate my sister the most!
08:07She always takes my stuff.
08:09Even when there are two same things, she thinks mine is better.
08:13Mom even thinks dad bought me something better.
08:15So every time, I get what my sister didn't want.
08:18The leftovers she ate.
08:19Even my dresses and shoes are her old ones.
08:22Thinking about this, I let out a big sigh.
08:25Mom always says,
08:26I'm jealous you are young, with no worries.
08:29But I have so many worries.
08:31Mom says my sister doesn't have her real dad,
08:34so she has to love my sister twice as much.
08:37My real dad says we have to be nice to my sister, too.
08:40He says he's a stepdad, so he has to treat everyone the same.
08:44Otherwise, the wolf pack will gossip.
08:46Both my parents say, be nice to my sister.
08:49They tell me over and over to be nice to her, too.
08:53I count on my fingers.
08:54Five is smaller than eight.
08:56So why does five-year-old me have to give in to eight-year-old her?
08:59Then I noticed dad was still at my door.
09:02Mom got mad.
09:03Didn't I say we're starving her all day?
09:05If you go soft on her, you're sleeping in the studio tonight!
09:08Dad didn't say anything.
09:10He called my name again.
09:11Still no answer from me.
09:13I floated next to him.
09:14I said over and over,
09:16I am right here.
09:18But he couldn't hear me.
09:19He muttered,
09:20Why is this cub so angry?
09:21Mom was even prouder.
09:22See?
09:23I was right.
09:24That Emma is so ungrateful.
09:26I locked her in for only three hours.
09:28And she already ignores you on purpose.
09:31If she grows up like this,
09:32who knows how rebellious she'll get.
09:34Not like our Olivia.
09:35So obedient and smart.
09:37My sister lifted her chin proudly.
09:39She quickly swallowed her food.
09:41I watched Mom feed my sister.
09:43I was so jealous.
09:45Mom never fed me.
09:46Mom says I already have a dad.
09:48So she has to give more of her love to my sister.
09:51She's busy cooking for my sister.
09:52Busy taking her to practice.
09:54Busy taking her to the doctor.
09:56I got handed over to the neighbor lady.
09:58After a while, the other cubs made fun of me.
10:00No dad ever picks you up?
10:02I frowned and yelled back that they were wrong.
10:04Not only does no dad pick me up,
10:06Mom never picks me up either!
10:09When I got a bit older, I learned to eat by myself.
10:12But my sister said she wanted to feed me.
10:14The food was too hot.
10:15The spoon hurt my tongue.
10:17My belly was so full, it hurt.
10:19But every time I mentioned this,
10:20Mom said I was being a baby.
10:22Just eat more.
10:23She said that would make my sister happy.
10:25And if my sister felt better,
10:27her eating disorder would get better too.
10:30Once her sickness was gone,
10:31Mom said she would have time to love me.
10:33But I waited and waited.
10:35That day never came.
10:37At night, after my sister fell asleep,
10:40Mom went into the kitchen.
10:41She made a bowl of meat soup.
10:43Then she knocked on my door.
10:44Emma, are you hungry?
10:46Mom sighed.
10:48During the day, I lost my temper.
10:51Sorry, I didn't mean it, but...
10:53Mom didn't finish her sentence.
10:54She left the soup at the door.
10:56If you're hungry, come out and eat.
10:59This was Mom's second time making meat soup.
11:01The first time I ate it, it was so good.
11:04Even my sister couldn't get that special soup.
11:06Mom only made her spicy jerky and peppered steak.
11:10What a shame.
11:11I can never eat Mom's cooking again.
11:13The next morning, Mom saw the spilled soup.
11:15She got furious.
11:17Emma, how long will you keep this up?
11:19I apologized yesterday.
11:21You're so young.
11:23Why hold such a grudge?
11:24I tried to explain it wasn't me.
11:26My sister knocked it over on purpose.
11:28But Mom couldn't hear me.
11:29She got angrier and pushed the door open.
11:32My sister just finished brushing her teeth.
11:35She followed.
11:36In the morning light, my sister pointed at the red stain.
11:39Mom, Emma's needs ketchup in her room.
11:41She's so bad.
11:43Then she pointed at the blanket with a bump.
11:45Mom, look.
11:46She's hiding because she's guilty.
11:48With every word, Mom's face got worse.
11:51She didn't even bother to wake me up.
11:53She took my sister's hand and said,
11:55Don't be like your sister.
11:57She was born a little monster.
12:00My sister happily shook her head.
12:01I won't be like Emma.
12:03She's a piggy.
12:05To punish me, Mom went shopping all day.
12:07But she didn't know I was right behind her.
12:11I listened to her brag to the sales clerk.
12:14She said her older daughter is so good, but the younger one is rebellious.
12:18She always wants to compete for attention.
12:20The sales clerk said it'll get better when she grows up.
12:22Mom thought so too.
12:23So even though all the bags were full of my sister's clothes, she finally bought me a new pair of
12:29leather shoes.
12:30But the wolf pack celebration was long over.
12:33Back then, I wore sandals that kept falling off.
12:36The other kids called me a trash picker.
12:38Now, even with new shoes, I don't want them.
12:40When my sister came home from school, she covered her nose and screamed.
12:44Mom, it stinks in here.
12:46She sniffed around like she meant it.
12:48Then she pointed at my room.
12:50Emma must have pooped her pants.
12:52Mom walked over holding the new shoes.
12:54She saw my room really was the source of the smell.
12:57She got so mad, she threw the shoes aside.
13:00My sister took the chance to stomp on them a few times.
13:03Mom yelled through the door.
13:04Emma, don't you know to go to the bathroom?
13:07Do you have to make such a mess at home just so I can clean up after you?
13:12Again, only silence answered her.
13:15Not talking, huh?
13:16Mom angrily pushed the door open.
13:18A weird smell came from the bed.
13:20The stench made Mom's eyes water.
13:22How did I end up with such a dirty daughter?
13:25She ran to my bed and ripped off the blanket.
13:27But what she saw made her freeze in shock.
13:31The pink sheets were covered in dried blood.
13:33I was on the bed with my back to her, curled up in a ball.
13:36Mom's heart suddenly started racing.
13:39She looked down to avoid it.
13:40But the rug on the floor was also covered in blood.
13:42Her head was buzzing.
13:44Didn't Olivia say it was just spilled ketchup?
13:46Mom didn't have time to think.
13:48She looked back at me on the bed.
13:50Emma, don't sleep.
13:51You said you wanted new leather shoes, right?
13:54Mom got them for you.
13:56But it's me on the bed.
13:57Even if I'm dead, it's still me.
13:59Why would a mom be scared of her own cub?
14:01I'm not scared of dead kittens at all.
14:03Dad buried a kitten with me by the big tree.
14:06He said when I grow up, the kitten will come back.
14:08Now I'm dead.
14:09I'll probably come back to Mom someday.
14:11But I kind of don't want to come back.
14:13In this house, no one likes me except that kitten.
14:17My nose got tingly again.
14:18Luckily, this time I was strong and didn't cry.
14:21If Mom knew, she'd probably praise me, right?
14:23While Mom was zoning out, my sister hid the dirty shoes under the couch.
14:27She also took a bite of the cake Mom just bought.
14:30After doing all that, she slowly walked into my room.
14:33Mom, did Emma poop her pants?
14:36Punish her!
14:37She's five years old and still poops her pants.
14:40How embarrassing!
14:43Just then, Dad came home.
14:45He frowned.
14:46What's that smell?
14:49Did the toilet break?
14:52Dad changed into his slippers.
14:54He saw the shopping bags on the sofa.
14:56He was confused.
14:57Didn't Mom come back?
14:59Why didn't she answer him?
15:00My sister heard the noise and ran out of my room.
15:03Dad saw her and picked her up for a spin.
15:05Olivia, did you eat well today?
15:07I ate a whole bowl of meat soup.
15:09My teacher praised me.
15:11Right.
15:11Kids need to eat big bites.
15:14Dad happily tapped her nose.
15:15Look at your sister.
15:16She eats so well.
15:18That's why she's so energetic.
15:19How's Mom feeling now?
15:20Is she still mad at Emma?
15:23Emma snuck ketchup and got it everywhere.
15:25She also pooped in her room and made the whole house stink.
15:28Dad put my sister down and quickly walked to my room.
15:31Charlotte, Emma is still little.
15:33Don't be mad.
15:35I'll call a cleaner later.
15:36As soon as he stepped into my room, he held his breath.
15:39Seeing Mom just standing there, Dad worriedly patted her.
15:42Mom turned around blankly, her eyes red.
15:45Dad spoke awkwardly.
15:46I know you're mad, but Emma is still little.
15:50She was locked in her room all day.
15:52It makes sense she went on herself.
15:54If you're tired, go rest.
15:55I'll change Emma's clothes.
15:57Dad thought Mom was too mad to even talk, so he decided to act first.
16:01Emma, don't sleep.
16:03Go to the bathroom and change your clothes.
16:05Take a bath.
16:06Even little cubs need to be clean.
16:08I didn't move at all on the bed.
16:11Feeling how cold my skin was, Dad endured the stench and gradually frowned.
16:16He sat on the edge of the bed.
16:17He turned me over.
16:18I was curled up in a ball.
16:22Emma, wake up.
16:25The weather is warm now.
16:27Why is your body still so cold?
16:29Dad couldn't finish his sentence.
16:31He quickly put me back on the bed.
16:32My stiff body bounced a few times.
16:35My sister was bored on the couch.
16:37She didn't hear me cry or scream, so she came to my room again.
16:42Mom and Dad ignored her.
16:43My sister climbed onto my bed.
16:45She pushed me hard.
16:47Emma, why are you still sleeping?
16:51Mom, Dad, tell her off.
16:54She's lazy, messy, and doesn't like to study.
16:57Usually, after my sister said that, Mom would frown and scold me.
17:01But this time, Mom stayed quiet.
17:03Instead, Dad picked me up and ran out.
17:06Dad will take you to the priest right now.
17:09Mom finally snapped out of it.
17:11She grabbed her bag and followed Dad.
17:16As for my sister, Mom left her with the neighbor.
17:19Even though my sister cried and said she wanted to come, Mom still said no.
17:26The priest's healing hunt.
17:27Dad ran straight to the back room.
17:29Where's the priest?
17:30Somebody come quick!
17:31The wolf priest stood up.
17:33He told Dad to put me on the bed.
17:35Dad did it right away.
17:37The priest touched my cold little hand.
17:39He frowned.
17:40How do you take care of your cub?
17:42In the dead of winter, you put her in just thin pajamas?
17:45My fault.
17:46Dad wiped his forehead.
17:47Priest, please save my cub.
17:49The priest didn't say any more.
17:51He took out a stethoscope and started asking.
17:53What symptoms did the cub have?
17:55Or did she tell you?
17:57He stopped mid-sentence.
17:58He realized something was wrong.
18:00He gave Dad a sharp, suspicious look.
18:03The body is already cold.
18:05And you just brought her in?
18:06Dad's head shot up.
18:08His eyes were bloodshot.
18:09What are you talking about?
18:10My daughter is just sick.
18:12What do you mean cold?
18:13You quack!
18:14Don't curse my daughter, dead!
18:15Priest had seen troublemakers before.
18:17But this was the first time someone brought a dead body and asked to be saved.
18:22He stopped talking and started examining me.
18:24But as he checked deeper, his frown never went away.
18:27How did you raise this cub?
18:28From the wrecker and the spots.
18:30She's been dead for at least 8 hours.
18:32As parents, didn't you notice anything wrong?
18:34Mom collapsed onto the floor.
18:36She finally remembered.
18:37Last night, I was rolling in pain.
18:40But back then, Mom was sure I was faking.
18:42That I was just trying to get attention away from my sister.
18:45The priest pressed on my belly.
18:47It was swollen and hard like a little ball.
18:49I have to report this to the Wolfpack's law team.
18:51The cub's cause of death is unknown.
18:53We need a full exam.
18:54Soon, sirens went off.
18:56After Mom signed the paper, the law team elder cut open my belly.
19:00When they pulled out all the undigested food, everyone there was shocked.
19:04Two fist-sized chunks of meat, a big pile of raw lettuce, and food chunks as big as apples.
19:09She's only five.
19:11How could she eat so much?
19:12Mom still stubbornly argued back.
19:14So she ate a little more food?
19:16Nobody dies from overeating!
19:18The priest looked at her, surprised.
19:20Are you the stepmother?
19:22Mom was confused.
19:23She shook her head.
19:24The priest turned to Dad.
19:26Then are you the stepfather?
19:27Dad shook his head, pale.
19:29The priest's eyes were full of pain.
19:31If you're the real parents, how don't you know a five-year-old's appetite?
19:34Her stomach shows it was overloaded for a long time.
19:37The cause of death is gastric rupture from acute stomach expansion.
19:41He looked at Mom and Dad with disappointment.
19:44Normally, even if someone sleeps deeply, stomach pain forces them to stay awake before she died.
19:51Didn't she show pain or ask you for help?
19:53Dad's pupils shrink.
19:55Emma told me.
19:56She said there were bugs biting her belly.
20:00I thought she was just talking nonsense, so...
20:03The priest got so mad, he forgot their ranks.
20:05He punched Dad in the face.
20:08So that's why you didn't take your own daughter to a doctor?
20:11Do you know that after the stomach ruptures, acidic stomach fluid keeps burning her insides?
20:16That pain is too much for an adult, let alone a five-year-old cub.
20:21Your daughter was begging for help, and you thought she was throwing a tantrum?
20:26After hearing the priest's explanation, Mom finally realized people really can get stuck to death.
20:32And she had personally pushed her daughter toward death.
20:35Mom's tears finally fell.
20:38Priest, it's all my fault.
20:40Blame me.
20:40If you want.
20:43After yelling at each other, Mom and Dad went quiet.
20:46When they got home, Mom took my sister from the neighbor.
20:49The neighbor quickly handed her over.
20:51Your two cubs are so different.
20:53The older one is a little monster.
20:56She steals my cubs' toys and food.
20:59Emma is so good.
21:00Every time I took her to school, she never cried.
21:03She even told me in her baby voice to remember to pick her up.
21:06Talking about me made the neighbor smile.
21:09By the way, you left in a rush.
21:10What happened to Emma?
21:12I watched her grow up.
21:14If you're busy, I can watch her for a few days.
21:16She didn't see me.
21:18She thought I was really sick.
21:19She looked worried.
21:21Hearing the neighbor praise me, I covered my face shyly.
21:24But I couldn't help lifting my chin.
21:26So in other people's eyes, I am a good girl too.
21:29I am liked too.
21:31I wish the neighbor lady were my mom.
21:33Mom wiped her tears.
21:35Emma, she died.
21:38My sister's eyes went wide.
21:40Where Mom couldn't see, she smiled.
21:42Her eyes were full of joy.
21:44The neighbor couldn't believe it.
21:46She rubbed her ears.
21:49Did you say Emma is gone?
21:51I just saw her a few days ago.
21:53How can she be gone just like that?
21:56Mom covered her face and cried.
21:58After she told the whole story, the neighbor looked at her with disappointment.
22:02How could you not trust your own daughter?
22:04Emma is known as the most obedient cub in the pack.
22:06I wish I had such a good little girl.
22:09I remember once I was late picking her up.
22:11I had to buy groceries.
22:13I was half an hour late.
22:14She held my hand and didn't complain at all.
22:17My heart melted right there.
22:19I said I'd buy her jerky.
22:20You know what Emma said?
22:22She said she'd save it to share with her sister.
22:25Mom's tears fell again.
22:27But my sister got impatient.
22:29She whined for Mom to go home.
22:31That broke up their talk.
22:33With my body gone, the house didn't stink anymore.
22:36Dad locked himself in the study.
22:38He didn't say a word.
22:39Mom sat on the couch and stared into space.
22:42My sister shook Mom's hand.
22:46Mom, don't be sad.
22:49Your little girl is dead.
22:51But you still have me.
22:55Mom didn't hear the glee in her voice.
22:57She held my sister and cried hard.
23:00Olivia, your sister.
23:02She's never coming back.
23:04It's all Mom's fault.
23:06I wasn't careful enough.
23:08My sister heard Mom crying.
23:09Her eyes were full of jealousy.
23:11So she said she was hungry.
23:13Mom quickly dried her tears.
23:15She had already lost her little girl.
23:18She couldn't lose her older one either.
23:20She was in a rush.
23:21She only made my sister meat soup.
23:24But my sister thought Mom was half-assing it.
23:27She frowned and knocked the bowl over.
23:30Mom, you don't love me at all.
23:33You only love my sister.
23:34You used to make me lots of good food.
23:37I don't want meat soup.
23:38Mom saw her like this and snapped back.
23:41What do you mean I only love your sister?
23:43Haven't I been good enough to you all these years?
23:45Your sister never picked on food like you do.
23:48She loves meat soup.
23:49My sister started crying hard.
23:52Nobody loves that nasty meat soup.
23:55She ran to her room crying.
23:57She said she wouldn't eat anymore.
23:59Mom was exhausted.
24:00But she started doubting what she just said.
24:03Did Emma really love meat soup?
24:05She tried hard to remember.
24:07Then she realized something sad.
24:08As a mom, she knew her older daughter hated kale and loved spicy jerky.
24:14But her little girl?
24:15She didn't even know what her little girl liked to eat.
24:19Mom opened her phone.
24:20She scrolled through photos from bottom to top.
24:22The one who appeared the most was still my sister.
24:26At the pack's new territory.
24:27At the banquet hall.
24:28In new dresses.
24:30Getting awards at training.
24:31In every photo, my sister smiled like a flower.
24:34She stood in the most obvious center spot.
24:37She finally found a photo of me in it.
24:40But I was only in the corner.
24:42Only half my face showed.
24:43How did this happen?
24:45Her fingers shook.
24:47She tried to zoom in.
24:48But the photo was too blurry.
24:50She couldn't even see my face.
24:53Emma, what did I do to you?
24:59Mom held her chest in pain.
25:01Her throat made broken sobs.
25:03In her heart, she always thought she treated both daughters the same.
25:07Just sometimes she favored the older one.
25:10But photos don't lie.
25:11Mom finally realized she had ignored me for five whole years.
25:15The study door opened.
25:17Dad walked out with red eyes.
25:19He showed mom a message from my teacher.
25:21Emma is a very good cub.
25:23She always shares her cookies with kids who didn't bring breakfast.
25:26She says good cubs learn to share.
25:29Like she shares her love with her sister.
25:31But Emma is too obedient.
25:33Even with food she hates, her little face scrunches up.
25:36But she still eats it.
25:38So I told her, if you don't like cabbage, you can eat spinach.
25:41Learn to say no to things that make you uncomfortable.
25:45I hope parents can teach Emma to say no.
25:48Dad let out a long, painful cry.
25:51I'm a bad dad.
25:53Even the teacher saw something wrong with Emma.
25:56But I got mad at Emma for being brave.
25:59At that moment, all the lies fell apart.
26:01Saying it was for family peace.
26:03Saying it was for my sister's illness.
26:05Those were just excuses to run from responsibility.
26:08They simply loved the other cub more.
26:10The one who whined, laughed, and begged.
26:13And ignored the quiet one.
26:14The good one.
26:16The one who always said, it's okay.
26:18Because she said, it's okay, she could be sacrificed.
26:21Because she said, it's okay, she could be ignored.
26:25Mom got up.
26:25She slowly walked into my room.
26:29On the nightstand was the picture book I hadn't finished reading last time.
26:33Mom picked it up.
26:35Inside the pages was a picture I cut out from a magazine.
26:38It showed a kitten sleeping soundly in its mom's arms.
26:42On the back, I wrote in pencil.
26:44I want mom to hold me like this too.
26:46In that moment, mom felt like she'd been stabbed.
26:49Her heart hurt so much she couldn't breathe.
26:51She clutched the picture tightly and let out a heartbroken cry.
26:55Emma, I'm sorry.
26:57It's all my fault.
26:58Mom's fault.
26:59In the empty room, only her cries echoed.
27:02If I'd noticed earlier, would you still be here with me?
27:05I floated in the air.
27:07I wanted to hug her and tell her I didn't blame her.
27:09My hand went through her body.
27:11All that was left was a faint breeze.
27:13Mom seemed to feel something.
27:14She looked up suddenly, confused.
27:16Emma?
27:17She looked all around.
27:17Is that you?
27:19Mom stood up in a panic.
27:20Emma, if you're still here, give me a sign.
27:23Even just a little sound, please.
27:25Her eyes were full of hope, but she couldn't hear me, even though I just wanted to say,
27:29I love you, mom.
27:31After a long time, the hope in mom's eyes faded.
27:33They went dead again.
27:34She hung her head in despair.
27:36She laughed at herself.
27:37I'm the one who killed you.
27:38You must hate me.
27:40Why would you ever answer me?
27:42After pulling herself together, mom noticed the shoes were gone.
27:46She searched the whole living room.
27:48She found them under the couch.
27:52Dad shook his head.
27:53He said it wasn't him.
27:54So that was only left.
27:56Mom thought it might be my sister.
27:58A bad feeling grew in her heart.
28:00Dad thought the same thing.
28:01He forgot about being a good husband.
28:03He used a key to open my sister's locked door.
28:05Right there, he saw my sister eating jerky in big bites.
28:09She looked nothing like someone with an eating disorder.
28:11My sister quickly hid the jerky under her blanket.
28:14Out of habit, she tried to blame me.
28:16Mom, I didn't eat jerky.
28:18Emma did.
28:19Right after she said it, her face showed regret.
28:21I was already dead.
28:22Dead people can't sneak food.
28:24Mom immediately thought of the last jerky incident.
28:27Her face went cold.
28:28She asked,
28:29Last time, were you the one eating jerky and blaming it on Emma?
28:34My sister forced herself to say no.
28:36Mom asked again.
28:37Aren't you?
28:38My sister finally broke down and admitted it.
28:41I only ate a little.
28:42Mom, didn't you say I can eat anything I want?
28:46My sister cried and reached for mom's hand.
28:49But mom pushed her away hard.
28:50That's different.
28:52You can eat whatever you want because you have an eating disorder.
28:55I wish you would eat more.
28:59But Olivia, tell me the truth.
29:01Is your eating disorder real?
29:03My sister tried to lie again, but mom's eyes were too scary.
29:06So scary that my sister didn't dare lie.
29:09She cried and admitted it was all fake.
29:11It's all fake.
29:12I just wanted mom to care about me more.
29:16Emma was stealing mom's love from me.
29:20Only by faking sick would mom love me with all her heart.
29:23My sister sobbed out the truth.
29:24Mom kept pushing.
29:25Then why did you force your sister to eat?
29:28If she got fat, she'd be ugly.
29:30Mom and dad would only love pretty me.
29:32Mom, don't be mad.
29:34I won't lie to you again.
29:36My sister's face turned blue from crying.
29:38She could barely breathe.
29:39She reached out for a hug.
29:41But mom was so shocked by the truth, she kept stepping back.
29:44She never thought of the daughter she gave up everything in the divorce could be so cruel.
29:49Dad raised his fist to hit my sister.
29:52Dad's fist stopped in midair.
29:53It hit the couch instead.
29:55He looked down at mom.
29:56After Emma's funeral, let's get a divorce.
29:59His voice was hoarse.
30:00Mom sent my sister back to her ex-partner's home.
30:03My sister cried and begged.
30:05But it didn't matter.
30:06Just like when I cried and begged mom to save me.
30:09All alone.
30:10No one to help.
30:11The grave was on a hillside.
30:13The wind was strong.
30:14Mom put on the little leather shoes in front of the tombstone.
30:18She fell to her knees.
30:19Dad stood nearby.
30:20His face was covered in tears.
30:22He touched my name on the stone.
30:24His fingertips were cold.
30:25Baby, I'm sorry.
30:27Dad was wrong.
30:29Dad was wrong.
30:31If there's a next life, don't be our daughter.
30:35Find a family that truly loves you.
30:37Be the treasure in their hands.
30:39Don't meet us again.
30:41Don't suffer like this anymore.
