have to live in fear anymore.
Regret flooded her as she thought about all she had done to her niece.

towards her niece, her brother, and sister-in-law.

them.

I've graduated from college and Alma has finished her studies ahead of time, the companies rightfully should be returned to us.

because in my memory, that was the year our family was very happy.”
