Tricia's heart skipped a thousand times immediately her mom said those words. Her mom is willing to give her up to a crack in place of her elder sister. How could she be so mean, even to her own daughter?
"Mom? Dad chose Bethel; why are you changing the whole thing?" Tricia's voice cracked as she tried not to break down. She knew her mom was doing this so she could leave home for them to continue their evil deeds without disturbance.
"I'm your mom, Tricia. I make the decisions concerning your marriage, not the other way around! You don't expect me to leave your sister to go and suffer. Can't you understand that? Can't you just make this little sacrifice for your sister?" Tricia turned to her dad, hoping he would say a word, but he never said anything. Apart from her dad, there was no other person she could turn to for support, so she bent her head as a tear slipped down her cheek. She immediately wiped it and then looked up to see her mom.
