SUMMARY: The story is about Lucy, who was born into a Christian family and stood out in the church. Her mother abandoned her while she was three months pregnant, and Lucy couldn't see her father for years. She met a man in church, got married, and had three children. However, her husband started to mistreat her, and the abuse continued to escalate until Lucy asked for a separation. Her husband stabbed her to death in front of their two older children before hanging himself. Lucy's father picked up the grandchildren, and her mother had to be hospitalized.
