"Enough! Not a single word against MY daughter! When she needed you, you were never there and now you have the audacity to show regret on one and anger on another? What is wrong with you?"
Why is uncle glaring at me this hard? What is he talking about? Why amma is shouting at him? And dodda...Why is she crying? I want to go near dodda and hide behind her but I'm so scared. So scared to go to her because then I will have walk between amma and uncle. What if he hits me?
So I cover under the table, I go to one corner of it so that uncle does not find me.
"I will not let her live!"
I open my eyes and sit on my bed abruptly. I see all around me and a wave of relief washes over me. It was all a dream but why this dream always.
It's so hard to forget those words and those expression which are a bit more clearer now than before.
