My Dad Left Us to Die While Cheating With Mom’s Sister

Five-year-old Emmy believes her father will always come back. After all, Mark promised to care for Lily, her brain-injured mother, forever. But when Rachel, Mom’s sister, claims she is pregnant too, Mark locks Lily and Emmy at home and leaves. He says there is cake on the table. There is none. The water is off, the food is spoiled, and Lily begins to bleed. Emmy calls again and again, begging for help, but Mark believes Rachel and calls them liars. By the time he returns with strawberry ice cream, the silence inside the house has already become his final punishment.
