Silence

Just because she is mute, does not mean she is weak. But if you are mute for many years, if there anyway they can speak again? This story is about a mute girl named Angel. She became mute after the death of her sister, and she can't help blame herself for this.

" It is funny how different people treat you when you can, or can not talk. It happened when I was eleven. I was home alone with my big sister, and there was someone who broke into the house. She was trying to protect me with her life. She told me to just be quiet and sit in the closet, and we can hide until the police came, she had called them before right before we hid. I don't remember all of it, I tried to push all of it out. It was my fault. "Anyone home?" The intruder had asked, trying to seem friendly as if he was lost and only walked through an open door. I could see the line of a gun in his hand and I screamed, my sister shoving her hand over my mouth. The guy grinned and walked over to the room me and my sister were hiding in, his shoes hitting the surface fast and hard. He reached his hand out and my sister pushed me into the floor, hiding me into a pile of clothes, jumping to push the man away from the closet. All I heard was a gunshot, and the sound of the police busting down the door. If I had not screamed, my sister would still be alive, the police would have been here to save us in time. It was my fault my sister was shot. My fault it killed her on impact as it hit her heart. I was such a stupid little kid.
