Ralph and Marcey

Marcey waled around the house, quietly. She was cleaning up after the family, wondering if her family cared. She was scared of them, all she really knew was that they liked to hurt her, which she accepted. She walked to Ralph's room and knocked softly, she didn't smile or speak.

Ralph open the door and let his sister in

She walked in quietly and began cleaning. She wasn't showing any emotions, as usual. She always kept herself hidden from everybody. She looked weak and tired but tried not to show it. She didn't want anybody feeling sorry for her, in case it came in between her family.

"Sister you do not have to clean, I allready clean today" Ralph said

She continued quietly. She loved her big brother dearly but never talked to him before. She was forbidden to, she wasn't allowed to even smile at anybody.

"Stop it sister" he said as just give up

She stopped and nodded softly, then left the room to continue cleaning. She bit her lip hard and went to clean some more

" I fucking give up" he said as he pull out a blade

At the end of the day she approached her parents and told them she upset Ralph. They beat on her and when they finished she went to her little cellar and curled up in a corner without eating. She nuzzled under her ragged blanket and curled up, glad she was punished for being bad.

Ralph put the blade away and look for his sister and he found her

She softly closed her eyes, too tired to even notice

"It not your failt, I got myself mad" he said

She opened her eyes and looked at him, quietly.

"It not your failt, I just startingto hate you not talk, you have a voice use it" he said as he go to his mom and dad and told them he was mad at himself and leave his sister out

His Mom took him to his room. "Honey, it's her fault..." his dad beat on Marcey for a while, when he was done he took her blanket away and ripped her clothes up, then left. She curled up and closed her eyes tiredly, hoping Ralph was happy.

"No it not!" He said. "Givr her some love or else I am not talking to you and not leting you come to my high school exit day" he said

"Nice joke sweety," she laughed and walked off.

"Be nice or this is the last time you ever going to see me" he said as he open the window and willing to jump

She was already gone. Marcey slept until the next day.

"Fine then" he sleep until the next day as he woke up as he went on the roof

Marcey was limping around, cleaning. She cooked for everyone and set the table, then left to clean some more while everybody ate

Ralph got off the roof and back into his room to pack up

Marcey was cleaning as usual. She crawled under the bed and came out with some things

Ralph put it in the bad and put it on the shouder as he left his room and heading to the door

She saw he had packed up, she left hi room to watch him leave. Everybody watched, she hid in the shadows as the mom ran up and hugged him.
