Every so often you can end up being obedient to someone just out of fear. They can make you do things that you aren’t necessarily proud of just because you are afraid they might do something to you. This was the case with my older step sister Ali she was 9 and a troubled child who just got enjoyment out of messing with me and her younger sister Ashley she was 6 and I was 7. I only knew her for a couple years but I can tell you she was the evil step sister that you would always hear about in horror stories. Ali told me I had to help her do something to Ashley I was scared of her and I had to figure out whether or not I should help her or not.

This house really wasn 't suitable for children it never had anything to color with or to play with, once my brother William even chased us around the house with a knife when he was two and my dad and stepmom were sleeping.

Ever since we knew each other she was always getting us in trouble, whether it was her writing my name on the back of my dad 's leather seat in the car or walking around the kitchen when he told us not to. I would follow her around because I wasn 't used to having someone older than me since I was the oldest in the entire family. I just thought that being older means that you would not allow something bad to happen to your younger sibling or cousin because that 's how I was so I trusted
