"One...two...three. Come on Silver you have to count with me. Daddy says that counting helps to calm you down." Noel panicked. I knew that he didn't like when we cried and if I didn't stop he would most likely punish us, but I couldnt help it. I missed my mommy and daddy was always gone now.
"I'm sorry Noel. I'm scared and I want my mommy." I cried. She smiled at me sadly before grabbing my hand. I love Noel. She was always there for me and I wish I could be as strong as she was.
"Tell me about your mom Silver. Talking about her always cheers you up."
"You know everything silly." I laughed as again she smiled at me. Noel had always been my best-friend and she always will be.
"Well tell me again, but remember we have to be quiet."
"I know Noel, I know. Does he scare you too?" I mumbled staring at the door.
"He always scares me, but he threaten daddy so I can't tell him that he scares me." she admitted grabing my attention as I stared at her wide-eyed.
"He threatened my daddy too." I smiled a sad toothless smile.
"At least we have each other." She said grabbing my other hand trying to cheer me up a bit.
"We'll always have each other. Remember what my mommy said Noel? Friends may come and go," I started.
"But sisters are forever." she finished as we both giggled.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" he yelled banging his fist against the door causing both of us to jump and scoot back wide eyed.
"He really scares me." I whispered.
"He really scares me too Silver."
"Daddy says all we have to do is be good little girls because good little girls don't get punished." I said shakily.
"Matt is a monster though what if punishes both good and bad girls?" she asked and my eyes widen even further. I never thought of that.
"Then we tell our daddies." I sighed.

I couldn't stop crying as Noel paced the closet continuously. I wish she would stop. He didn't like noise. Matt didn't like when we shuffled just a little bit. She was making too much noise and he would come back. He would always come back. "We have to tell," I started as she finally stopped pacing and stare at me wide eyed. I knew she thought I was out of my mind for even suggesting, but I needed to say it outloud. "We have to tell what he did, but we can't. We can't because then we'd lose each other and our daddies and I can't afford to lose you Noel." my voice cracked as I cried harder from the thought. She bended down on her knees in front of me. I knew he pacing was only because Matt had raped both of us and it was confirmed as tears began to slide down her cheeks.
"He hurt me Silver. He hurt me bad." she cried as I pulled her into a hug.
"I won't let him hurt you again Noel. We'll both fight him."
"We're not strong enough to both take him though Silver. He's going to do it again and he's going to keep doing it all because we can't tell."
'I can't lose you." I cried again. I had lost enough already. Noel was all I had left.
"I'm not going anywhere Silver. Remember? Say it." She begged.
