"what did they do?" Martha asks. I don't speak because I dont know why they did it. I only pull up my baggy t-shirt and show her the bruises and scratches. She gasps.
" Lily!" she says "my little baby!" and she begins rocking me in her feeble, trembling arms...
---------- through Marthas eyes---------------------
I look down at her little face. My little sister didnt deserve to be treated like this. Then, suddenly we heard thudding footsteps coming down the stairs. I was going to run and hide but I knew it was to late. Dad had seen us. Fear surged through my body and I felt Lily go ridgid.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOURE DOING?!!" he bellowed and grabed lily by the hair out of my arms. " agh!" she cried in pain as he brought his fist into her stomach. She doubled over. Bully, I thought, how could anyone do this. I was terrified. The fear was running in my blood and I couldn't stop shaking.
" now" he said calmly,"It's yout turn."
