Mom opens her rough, dry lips for the first time. "Just wait," she rasps to me. Of course I'll wait for her to come back. My siblings and I have never gone a day without seeing her. Now she'll be away for at least two months. The officers drag Mom out of our home. Struggling against them with the remainder of her strength, she kicks Tinbie by accident. He topples over, clicks twice and powers off. The yellow radiance vanishes from his eyes. Before the group passes through the doors, Mom gives me a hard stare, her dreamer's eyes bloodshot. "You've always been ready for this," she says. Then she's gone. Excerpted from Dove Arising by Karen Bao All rights reserved by the original copyright owners.
