"Sugar pea take your brother and sister to bed." I was pale. As white as snow. As whit as a lily. I was terrified at what dad was going to do to mum. She might end up with another child. I do NOT want another baby to look after and stand up for. Too much hassle. Especially for me. I arched my eyebrows. "No." I said. I looking dad in the eye. I knew it wasn't a good idea to stand up to him but I wanted to. Alice and Alex ran upstairs and pulled the covers over their heads. "Go. To. Bed." I breathed in heavily as dad stared to get angrier. "NO!" I shouted, "I WILL NOT GO TO BED AND HEAR YOU HURT MUM! NEVER AGAIN! IT HAS CAUSED ME TO BE BULLIED BECAUSE I'M ALWAYS IN LATE SO I GET DETENTION! NO ONE BELIEVES THAT I HAVE TO LOOK AFTER MUM WHILST YOUR OUT LATE GRTTJNG DRUNK ONLY TO COME BACK AND HURT HER AGAIN!" Dad stumbled back. I was REALLY MAD! I felt like swearing. He looked shocked as if I had slapped him. I stared into his sole. It was a dramatic appearance! Until he came forward and slapped me. Straight across the face. I stumbled until I hit the ground. Everything went black.
