Things at my new home calmed down once I started kindergarten, though I absolutely resented my step dad for the beatings we still so frequintly got. He began to hit my little brother more often and violently. I was absolutely horrified how he treated my little brother, the only person I had who new how terrible our step dad was.
There were times when he felt the beatings werent enough for my brother and would go again. It made me so mad and scared, so angry that my mother never stood up for us, so angry that it affected my behavior in school.
I didnt know what would happen if they found out about my progress in school, so I lied.
Then, one night, I couldnt take it. My brother and I were lined up against the wall, him holding out a napkin of chewed up crackers.
My brother and I both new that he was the one who spit it out after choking, but my brother was terrified.
So to suprise everyone, before he could hit my brother, I stopped my step dad and told him it was me.
