“GET OUT OF MY HOUSE, YOU TRASH!!!” were the harsh words of her husband right after the mother dropped her pen. After the signup, the three girls were kicked out of their mansion under the orange sunset. He threw some clothes into a suitcase, zipped it, and threw it in front of their feet adding up, “My wife is waiting for me in my room. I don’t wish to keep her waiting by hanging around silky and dirty girls like you all.” “WHAT?!” shocked the mother out of her skin, “You made me do it when she was already there?! Does this mean that you had already signed the second marriage? This is insane you did not even ask for my suggestion or permission. Why that rudeness?” “ENOUGH OF ALL THAT RULES!” yield the father at her as he moved inside the gate, “I do not need to keep asking for permissions or choices of yours anymore. You are a useless woman who only stays at home and waits for what I would get from the outside for you. Rather a strong woman would step out of her door and fight

Mama..” called Beth, trying to walk along her side as she felt her arms being dragged to move out faster. “MAMA!” called Beneatha her first girl but, the mother did not care to listen to a word.

When the policeman presented his hand requesting to come along. This stunned both the girls. He said, “Come with me to the police station. You shouldn’t stay here. It will get colder tonight. You two might catch a cold. Come to the police station.” “WHAT?! NO!” exclaimed Beth, “WHERE ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE US?” “Do not be afraid.” Calmed the policeman girl, using as much low voice as he can, “We can care for you two until some…...” “NO!” argued the child with him, “WE ARE NOT LONELY!

This word is especially running on children’s tongues. For Beth, she was nonstop whispering this word, as she kept weeping. Behind her, Beneatha could only watch her helplessness. A man asked the policeman, “Can’t we do something?”. The officer just stared as he stood in dumb. No clue as to what he should answer. Everyone could only stare at the girl, who was locked to the street light’s pole. If they tried to move her slightly, she would scream like a monster, arguing to let her go. If they tried to explain to her, she won’t listen. Not to mention, she also refused to hear her sister Everyone was puzzled on their own. Some thought of helping, finding some ideas while others simply watched. Though, it may seem that it’s not their business however a natural ratio was erupting here that was not to ignore a helpless child. Pe

“Where do you think she must have gone?” asked Beth as she held onto her sister’s palm. “We just need to walk straight ahead. Perhaps, she might be nearby somewhere…” answered Beneatha with a smile at her sister. Her voice sounded cheering as she paced in front of her with back toward the girl. In reality, her expression was turning pale. She was shivering with every step as her heartbeat was pumping twice. Due to sped beat, she sweated buckets all over her structure.

We both are scared but, for my sister, I need to stay strong..” Under the night, in a quiet street, where the yellow street light glowed the road, the two little girls paced side by side, holding hands as their tiny feet carried them into nowhere. Fear conquered them. Hopelessness drew an endless path for their search. Worries made th

There is a saying that goes: {Our parents leave us early, and our guardians and spouse respond to us late but, our siblings are the only ones who stay by our side.} A statement similar to this one was displayed for the two sisters.
