Something seemed very dark in the stepmother's somber and dour temperament. The ending surprises us as a deceased grandmother is the cause of the terrible climate in the narrator's house. We are left without a complex understanding of the causes of the twist in the denouement. Thanks for writing this intriguing story for The Ink Well, @kelseyimoh. We look forward to your comments on other community posts.
Yeah, the complex part of it should come from the reader's mind. It's a twist by the way.
