" Well, don't be mad, just that I heard Mary and some women talking about it. And they spoke for long saying you were not my sister," he answered.
" What else did they say," I asked.
" Well, I didn't stay longer, because I felt bad and wanted to cry that you are not my sister," he said.

" Noo," I screamed furiously as I kicked my legs in vain. His eyes grew wild as he laughed and roared in an ugly voice. " Papa," I cried as his hands tightened and I began coughing in snore like sounds. He lifted my head and hit it back on the ground and I tried to scream in pain but no voice came out. I lifted my hands trying to hold on to something as I took my last few breaths on earth. I don't know how but I managed to hold his neck too but and atrte squeezing too.
