As a child I didn't realize things. I didn't know them, I didn't understand them.
As I grew up, I came to know how people discriminated against other people based on things they couldn't even control.
A few years later from when we started living with aunt and uncle I came to know about humiliation, not because I did something or Dahlia did something but because people made fun of us, they made fun of Lia being different and me being her sister.
I didn't realize how different my sister was from us. How her degenerative brain activity could ever become the cause of kids teasing and pointing fingers at us.
I didn't like it.
Everytime I went out to play with Lia, kids would start making fun of us because Lia acted like a kid despite her age and size.
Clair had already stopped appearing anywhere with us and I always stood by Lia in confusion when kids in the park pointed fingers at us and teased us.
