i-Thomas /ibiPOV/i/bbi: /i/b

Out of all of Dani’s brothers, Damon irritated me the most. He was also so self–righteous especially when it came to Rabena. You would have thought he grew up with her instead of Dani.

i“/iiShe’s /iin the shedi./i” I said coolly, he was already starting to irritate me.

“What’s she doing in the shed?”

Suddenly, Amber jumped up, full irritation in her eyes.

“We haven’t iseen /iyou iin /iover ithree /iweeksi! /iIs Rabena iall /iiyou /iicare /iiabout/ii?/ii” /i

“What iare /iyou italking /iiabout/ii? /iiI just /iiasked /iiwhere /iishe /iiis/ii./i”

Amber’s voice raised even higher.

“Why idoes /iithat /iimatter/ii!/ii” /i

The room fell silent. After a few minutes, Davis finally spoke. fn87a3 This content belongs to find?novel/fn87a3

“That igirl /iiis /iiin /iithe /iished/i, ishe /iimade /iia /iifuss /iiover /iiDani’s /iibirthday /iiand as /iipunishment/ii, /iiher /iihusband /iiced /iiher /iiin /ithe shed until ishe /iiapologizes/ib./bb” /b

Damon could hardly believe his ears, what the hell did THAT mean? Made a fuss? What was going on? Damon rubbed his temples, he could feel a headache brewing, over the past several years he watched as his family grew more and more ridiculous over Danielle treating her like some porcin doll. All the while, they treated Rabena like trash, despite her being the very reason Danielle was even alive.

“So, you’re iall /iitelling /iime /iiRabena /iimade /iisuch /iia /ifuss iover /iiDani /iithat /iishe’s /ibeen in the shed all day?”

Suddenly, Amber smiled with a smug look on her face.

“Actually, she’s been in there for iover /ithree daysi./ii” /i

Damon could feel all the color draining from his face. Had he just heard her correctly! Rabena was locked in a shed for over three days, and they were allughing and watching TV! What the hell was going on!

“What did you just sayi?!/ii” /i

“It serves her righti! /iShe had ino /iright to be disrespectful.”

There was no remorse in Amber’s voice, she had truly hated her youngest daughter for some strange reason. Still, Damon had to gather all the facts.

“iWas /ishe ced out there with food and wateri?/i”

Darius was the next to speak.

i“/iiWhy /iiwould /iwe do ithat/ii? /iiThe /iiwhole /ipoint iis /iifor /iiher /iito /iibe /iipunished /iiand /iiapologize/i.”

Damon’s eyes instantly bulged, were these people all insane?

“iWhat /ithe hell iare /iyou talking about! iShe /icould idie/ii!/ii” /i

Damon turned around and began to leave when his father called out to him.

“Damon! Don’t you dare interfere! iShe’s /iibeing /iidisciplined /iiby /iiher /iihusband/ii! /iiYou /iihave /iino /irighti!/ii” /i

Damon looked at his father with pure disgust and contempt.

“No right? Your idaughter /iihas /iibeen /iilocked /iiout /iin a ished /iifor /iiover /iithree /iidays /iiin /iithe /iiheat /iiand /iiyou’re /iitelling /ime as iher /iibrother /iiI /iihave /iino /iiright /ito be iconcerned/i? iWhat /iikind /iiof /iifather /iiare /iiyou/ii?/ii” /i

Davis face paled as Damon’s words hit like slicing fan des: Guilt began to seep into his reaction as his words were starting to settle. Finally, Thomas spoke.

“If ishe /iiwanted /iito /iie /iiout /iiall /iishe /iihad /ito ido /iiwas /iiapologize/ii, /iiwhatever /iihappens /iito /iher iis /iion /iiher/ii./ii” /i

Damon gave Thomas a looked that instantly made ihi /i

“Fuck iyou /iiThomas/ii!/ii” /iiHe /iispat /iias /iihe /iiran /iiout /iof ithe /iihouse/ii. /i

bi-Rabena’s /i/bbPOV/bb: /b

shutter.

I could hear some type ofmotion outside of the shed, but I was too weak to react. It sounded like someone was calling my name in a panic. It sounded like Damon, but that couldn’t be right, he was still backpacking right?

My body wouldn’t corporate, I tried to life my head but there was no movement. I could feel myself drifting back unconscious.

-Thomas POVi: /i

We all rushed outside after Damon; he’s always making trouble! I would have known if something was wrong with Rabena, she would have called m-

Suddenly, it dawned on Thomas bthat /bshe may not have called him because her phone was dead. In a panic, he began digging in his pocket for his cellphone, by now, Damon was panicking.

“Rabena!! Rabena!! Can you hear me?! Where the fuck is the key! Give me the key! Get her out of therei!/i”

Thomas ran back into the house to grab the key to the shed; hands trembling he dialed Raben’s cell

number.

i“/iiHey /iithis /iiis /iiRuby/i, iat /iithe /iisound /iof ithe /itone iplease /iileave /iia /iimessage/ii./ii” /i

The color in Thomas face began to drain, her phone was dead. That’s why she hadn’t called him in all this time. In a panic he found the keys to the shed and raced back outside. By now, Damon was using an axe to break the lock. As the she doors busted open, they were all met with grisly sight. Rabena was passed in a pool of blood, nose bleeds curtesy of the heat. Her skin was ked and pale, her body was so dehydrated she could even produce sweat. Damon rushed over to her while dialing 911.

i“/ii911 /iwhat’s your emergencyi?/i”

“iPlease/i! Send an ambnce! iMy /iisister /iiis /iidying/ii!!/ii” /i

Damon frantically gave the 911 operator all the information regarding Rabena as well as the estate’s address. Darius and Danile looked on in horror, it was never their intentions to hurt her this bad. They just wanted her to apologize. Davis stared nkly, his expression hard to read. While Amber and Danielle looked on with irritation.

As the ambnce ced Rabena onto the stretcher, they immediately began setting up an IV. Her body was so drained it was difficult to even find a vein, eventually they were able to hook up the IV and pump fluids into her. As they strapped her into the stretcher, one of the paramedics began asking what happened.

“iHow /iithe /iihell /idid ishe /iiend /iiup /iilike /iithis/i!?” He faced looked disgusted, but no one said a word. After she was secured, Damon leaped out of the ambnce, as they pulled away, he rushed over and punched Thomas square in the face.

Everyone immediately panicked and rushed over to stop the attack Damon was cing on Thomas. Danielle began to scream in panic.

“Damoni! /iDamon iplease /iistop/ii!! /iiYou’re /iigonna /iikill /iihim/ii!/ii” /i

But Damon didn’t care, he continued to beat on Thomas ferociously; finally, both of his brothers and father were able to pull him off. Thomasid on the ground covered in bruises and blood. Danielle and Amber instantly ran over and began trying to help him up. Amber looked in anger and panic at her son.

“Have you gone crazyi! /iiYou /iicould /iihave /ikilled ihim/i!i” /i

“So, what! What the fuck is wrong iwith /ithis ifamily/ii! /iiHe /icould have killed your daughter, and you all were just gonna sit around and watch iTV/ii! /iiCelebrating /iiDanielle/ii!/ii” /i

Amber stood up frantically bing defensive.

i“/iYou weren’t here! None of this would have happened if that brat hadn’t been mean to Dani!”

“Fuck iyou /iimom/ii! /iWhat did she do ito /imake your precious Dant cry this time huhi!/ii” /i

Everyone looked at Damon like he was madman, he had never spoken to any of them like before. Finally, in a guilty and low voice, Davis spoke,

“That’s enough son, she’s still your imother/i.i” /i

Damon looked at his whole family, people that he both loved and hated. This was the final straw. He scuffed and walked past his father and with a low malice voice,

“Not anymore.”

No one knew what to say after that, but they were too afraid to protest.
