The Mask Of A Siren 97 My Sudden Disappearance

I know there might be a lot of questions on how why I suddenly disappeared for so long. I really really am sorry. During the month of June, my father got Lyme disease. He had fevers, headaches, and he felt really weak. The doctor misdiagnosed it as a bad flu since the bite mark wasn't the typic bull mark and he mistook it as a rash and an allergic breakout. With that, my father was given the wrong medicine as well as healthcare. As the month went on, his condition improved at times and turned for the worst at times.

Just a week ago, he collapsed and rushed into the hospital. It was found that his heart was unstable as well as not working so he needed to get a pacemaker. Being that he couldn't speak English, I had to be the one to always translate. It took a strain on my mental health as it began harder and harder to tell him his health was deteriorating. So from this time, I began really unstable emotionally and mentally. I just graduated from high school so I was already feeling a bit lost. Adding this, it became a strain.

Maybe because it's that I'm still young and not experienced, I couldn't cope with it well. I wrote a lot of chapters just to delete everything. This was a cycle I couldn't get out of. I wrote, I deleted it.

My father's a lot better now although he depending on the pacemaker 100%.

I'm more stable now.

There was a reader who reached out since I was quiet for so long and I realized how wrong it was of me to not give a warning. Maybe I really haven't matured enough. I should have said something so you, as my readers, wouldn't have to come back constantly to find no new chapters.

Also, I should be clear. I won't drop this novel. I just won't.

It's a personal promise and a promise I made because of another reader.

I hate breaking promises because I know how it feels on the other end.

With that note, I really hope you guys forgive me. I can't ask for more. I'm still learning and I'm trying to grow. The good news from this experience is that I went through such a chaotic time and I'll recreate it within my writing.

Please enjoy the next chapter.
