Sneak peeks into the story…

Hush

“Has anyone ever touched you?” Auntie asked me

while sitting in the back seat. “Ahem.” I hesitated while

sitting next to Sissy. As I glanced at her, afraid, I

stammered and said, “Somebody made me suck their

big toe.”

“Shush,” Sissy said as she pinched my leg. “Hush,”

they said; Sissy obeyed their commands. Defenselessly,

we were unable to speak. Lured and harassed, Church

Boy intimidated us. “Hush, don’t tell nobody.” We both

are scared, so we don’t tell nobody, confused and abused.

Who could have had a clue? “Shush, Sissy, don’t speak.”

My face is hot; I can’t speak. “Hush, don’t tell anyone.

We will be homeless if we give evidence.” Now I can’t

speak. My mouth is shut; I can’t breathe. “Shush, don’t

tell nobody. Surely one day you will testify.”
