Because You Are My Baby

by reddit user u/Dopabeane

My mother had the most beautiful teeth.

Her teeth are my first memory. I remember them: long and white and bared in a ferocious grin, shining under the full moon as she told me a story. Not a fairy tale or picture book, but my the story. The story of how I’d come to her…or rather, how she’d come to me.

When I was very small – too small to remember anything at all – my mother stole me from a man, and took me to live in the forest. She stole me not as an act of love, but as an act of revenge. Though I was desperate to know, she never told me what needed revenging.
