This story is set in the Beautiful Trauma Universe. It takes play about 2 years after Beautiful Trauma. You do not need to read that story or Beautiful Christmas to understand this one.

I had this idea a few years ago from a video posted on Instagram by an influencer. She recounted a terrifying tale about how she and her children were followed around a California Michaels by a couple who would eventually try to kidnap one of her children in the parking lot. That story as since been proven false and the woman was charged.
