Lynne stiffened at the hard words of her daughter. Nicole turned to walk away, but Marvin grabbed her arm.
"Where do you think you're going?" he sneered jerking her back to him.
She tried to snatch out of his grip but he held tight.
"I think you should come into the house," he said pulling her towards the door of the house.
Nicole desperately tried to get away without making a scene for the crowd that was now dissipating. She looked back over her shoulder to see if Ethan had left her.
"Come Nicole, you can go to the hospital with us."
She knew Marvin had no intentions of letting her out the house again. If he had his way, she would forever be locked up in that room for the rest of her life. She didn't want to go through that again. Lynne only stood there watching, not doing anything. Nicole began to struggle more.
"I think you should let the girl go," a voice came through to them.
Marvin stopped his dragging and looked in the direction of the voice.
Ethan stepped up on the curb lighting a cigarette and taking a long drag.
"Mind your own business, mister," Marvin seethed.
Lynne gasped, "What the hell are you doing here?"
Ethan came up to the porch. "I think he should let her go."
