Georgia and her two grandchildren were spending some time at the beach. Ever since the little ones lost their mom and dad, it was Georgia who took care of them. She did all in her power to fulfill their every wish in order to ease their pain and diminish the grief that had settled in their tiny hearts.
But that trip wasn’t a random one. A week prior, Georgia received an anonymous letter that read, “They are not really gone.” She had no idea what those words meant. Was someone pulling pranks on her? They couldn’t be possibly talking about her daughter Monica and her husband Peter. Georgia organized their funeral, although she wasn’t allowed to see their bodies after the fatal crash.

A feeling of unease affected her days. “Was there more to the story,” she could stop wondering.
At that moment, Georgia remembered that her daughter’s credit card was still active, so she called the bank to see if any transactions had been made during the two years Monica was dead.
To her surprise, the bank informed her that a virtual card linked to the account had been used. It had been activated just a week before Monica’s death. With a mix of dread and curiosity, Georgia decided to investigate further.
Georgia was able to locate the place where the last transaction had been made. It was a peaceful beach not far from where they lived.
While the kids enjoyed the sunny day, Georgia was looking around in hopes of spotting a familiar face. And just as she convinced herself that she was simply delusional and that her daughter couldn’t possibly be alive and the bank had made a mistake, her grandson Andy shouted: “Grandma, look! That’s our mom and dad!”
The little boy kept pointing to the nearby coffee shop.
The woman had Monica’s hairstyle, and the man shared Stephan’s limp. Georgia followed them at a distance and could hear them talking how much they missed their boys. The strangest thing of all was that they referred to each other as Emily and Anthony, not their real names.
Georgia felt the urge to ring the doorbell of the cottage her daughter and son-in-law entered in, but not before alerting the authorities.
When Monica saw her mother, she froze. She immediately started crying and begging her to forgive her. When Georgia demanded answers, her daughter explained that they were forced to fake their own deaths in order to escape a financial ruin. They believed the children would be better off without them.
Georgia couldn’t believe what she was hearing. How could her own daughter be so cruel and abandoned her own children.
Monica and Stephen begged Georgia to let hem see the boys, and despite the anger she felt, she agreed.
However, just a few minutes later, the police arrived and arrested them.
Looking at her grandchildren, Georgia wasn’t sure if she made the right call when she alerted the authorities of her daughter’s and her son-in-law’s crime, but what she knew was that she would do anything to protect her grandchildren, even from their own parents.
