"If they string me up
I'll know who
Brought the twine
That scummy, crummy
Dummy hubby of mine!
My older half-sister Sheila was a bigger fuck-up than I was and that's saying something. She wasn't supposed to be born a year before me so her father Rod seemed to resent her even though he took her away from our mom as soon as she was born. Sure, she was a championship cheerleader but she was also an alcoholic.
They called her the Roxy Hart of East Highland, after the Broadway musical. Ironic, considering Roxy is her middle name.
Her dad was callous so she found comfort in the one person that was more fucked up than her, his business partner's son Nate Jacobs.
When Sheila was twelve, she and Nate Jacobs found his dad's porn collection while their dads were out at a business dinner even though it was my mom's weekend to take custody. It was during a game of truth or dare and Sheila dared Nate to snoop around his dad's office. She claimed it was fun, having done it while her own father was away.
As quickly as Nate put the disc in, he put it away and grabbed Sheila, dragging her out of the office. He told her to leave. And with a ride from Nate's mom, preteen Sheila found herself right where she should have been the entire time... at home with our mom.
"Mama."
"Sheila, I was worried sick about you! Is your daddy outside? I need a word with him."
"Daddy's at a meeting."
A month later, my mother got joint custody of Sheila on the grounds that her dad was neglecting her. Sheila started rebelling against her father after that. She tried avoiding Nate but he was always watching her. They'd fight and he'd grab her and Sheila would scratch his arm to get him off of her. And then, when she told her dad or showed him the bruises, he'd tell her that Nate was a nice boy and maybe it was an accident. She'd never told Mom but Gia knew. They were closer than anyone else in our family. Sometimes when my mom and I fought, Gia stayed at Sheila's dad's house.
