This chapter will be about Adrienne's past.

Adrienne's POV

The past...

I had a sister. Clara. She was a good ten years older than me. She used to push me away into a cabinet in order to keep me safe from my father. She was broken, but was always happy around me. She was like a mom to me, seeing that our mom ran off when I was two.

He would push her to a wall and say,"Come on Clara. Daddy's lonely." And take her into our room, close the door and not come out for thirty minutes. Her whimpers echoed the house. I would then run in and give her some ice. We would then cuddle on the bed and go to sleep.

When I was six, I had noticed her stomach getting bigger. When I asked, she broke down into sobs and told me that I was going to be an aunt. About seven months along, she had a miscarriage. She was never the same.

One time, my father wanted to do the same to me, but she wouldn't let him. I hid behind the couch as she took his abuse. She knew there was no use fighting, but she did it for me. An hour later, she died in my arms.
