Pov Lisa

I'm woken up by someone, I open my eyes slightly and I'm blinded by the light, I wake up in a hurry when I no longer feel Lauren's presence on me, then I get up and see before me the little figure of Amy who falls to the ground because of my leap.
I help her get up and ask her where Lauren was, she tells me she's getting upstairs with Christina and that I should get ready too.
I go upstairs and into Lauren's room, where I see a little Lauren sitting on the bed, looking down and with Christina preparing them.
I approached and the hug and Christina tells me that yesterday they called her from the police station and said that today there is the sentence of our father and we have to go to court.
I kissed Lauren's head and went to get ready, about 30 minutes later we were all in the car, ready to go, Christina was driving alongside Amy, behind me and Lauren and behind us Dani and Katherine . Arrived at the court, when he was about to start the lawsuit comes our attorney and tells us to keep us ready for any reaction from Lauren.
At the desk we were sitting Christina and Lauren in our midst and our lawyer next to Christina, while the other sisters were behind. I took Lauren's hand to reassure and I picked her up. After a while the judge arrives and starts the cause, the first to be called is Christina, she gets up and goes to talk next to the judge, after it is Lauren's turn but does not want to get up then I go with her, I tried to convince her to talk but not to it, then I told her to pretend to tell it as if it were a fairy tale, she nods and begins her story.
I-I was at home with dad ... and I was pla-playing at the piano ... because all my sisters were outside and I was bored.
After a while comes da-da-ad and asked me if I wanted to play hide and seek, I im-immediately accept and start counting ... but ... when I get to 18 ... I got a pu-punch on the face and I fell on the floor ... then I started crying and running away ... but I-I got into the ki-kitc-hen and I fell ... and ... and ... then D-da-dad came and started beating me and ... and ... and ... to ... un-un-dress ... and ... then ... he ... di-did ... that.
Lauren could not talk anymore, she stammered a lot and was having a panic attack, I was about to hug Lauren when the doors opened and our father came in with guards around him, he had the typical orange uniform and handcuffs, as soon as Lauren saw him , my name whispered fainted in my arms.
I take Lauren and take her into Christina's arms, then the judge lets our father talk, but the first and only thing he said was:
it's true, it was me,
and then he did not speak again. Now we are coming home, I am driving because Christina did not want to leave Lauren, in the end our father got the life imprisonment, at least Lauren can stay calm.
Along the way Lauren wakes up and whispers something in Christina's ear and lowers her head, then Christina says: why do not we go get a nice ice cream? I'm hungry, and she winks at Lauren who shyly smiles and hides her head in Christina's neck.
I drive to Lauren's favorite ice cream shop and we all get an ice cream, it was nice to see Lauren a little quieter. With this thought in mind, the first time we went to the water park comes to mind, Lauren was 4 years old and it was there that I understood how much I cared about Lauren. We went on the slides, we did the diving competitions and we always helped our little sisters. Then we separated because we wanted to do different things, and Lauren and I went to play in a small pool, I hear someone call me and I turn around, but I do not see anyone, then I turn around and I have not seen Lauren anymore, so I started going in panic and in pinagere but after not even 10 seconds I see her, in the water that plays, immediately I sling on her and hug her close to me.
- Why awe you crwing Wisa?
-O ... Lauren, because I realized how well I want you
-Is it so?
-Yes, no, it's not so much, it's so much, it's so big that it takes the whole universe, and I promise you one thing: whatever happens, I'll always stay near you, I'll always love you and I'll do everything to protect you. -Wisa ... I love you twoo, very wuch.
I'm brought back to reality when I hear all my sisters laugh, even Lauren, I look at them strangely not understanding what had happened, and Amy shows me the pants, I look at my legs and see all the ice cream melted on them, shit I got soiled all . Let's go home and I'm going to take a shower, Amy, Kath and Dani go to study and Christina and Lauren at the piano playing. Lauren will have already passed everything?
