    About this ebook

    It all began with Ma'am's thought- then decision to commit suicide as she takes a trip to the pool. During the act however, memories of a particular time in her childhood flashed through her mind. Memories that ultimately produce the epiphany that she desperately needs. Memories that helped her walk away with the realization that she has to lose a large part of who she is in order to save herself.

      Hostess
