An envelope bearing my mother’s name, with a handwritten warning:
DO NOT LET MARGARET SEE THIS.
The following afternoon, I secretly placed a motion-activated camera in the hallway, facing my mother’s bedroom door.
Two nights later, my phone alerted me at 3:17 a.m.
I opened the live feed.
Daniel was carrying the black bag.
He unlocked my mother’s bedroom and disappeared inside.
Minutes later, I heard her crying.
“Please, Daniel. I can’t do this again.”
His voice was firm.
“Grandma, we have to finish it before Mom finds out.”
Then came a sound I will never forget.
My mother screamed.
“NO! DON’T OPEN THAT!”

I called the police with shaking hands.
“My elderly mother is locked in her bedroom with my son,” I whispered. “She’s screaming. Please send someone.”
