That night I had a nightmare. I already knew my mom hated me, but in the nightmare everyone did, Grandma, Vincent, the few friends I had, and Daddy too. That was the worst part, the thought of daddy hating me. He said so many mean, degrading things. I woke up to find Mother sitting on the edge of my bed.
"You're just like your father," she said in a monotone voice. "God sees everything. All the wicked things you do, God saw all the wicked things your father and Elizabeth did and look where they are. God will take care of everything. God will punish the wicked."
"Mommy what do you mean, why are you talking like that," I whispered, scared out of my mind.
"Your father got what was coming to him, Emaleth. God works in mysterious ways, sometimes he sends a lowly servant to do his dirty work. Don't test me Emaleth, now be a good girl and go back to sleep."
