Later on, I was woken from my slumber in the room that I shared with my three younger female relatives. It was Cindy, and she had been drinking. I was astonished. Cindy seldom drank. "Kate," she murmured to me in the darkness. "I simply had to tell you something. Don't listen to our foolish sister. She's going to wind up alone all of her life or pRobably dead. I don't want that for you. Think about things pretty hard. Look at the people around you. Look at Mom and Dad. They are really happy together, even after all of this time. They love one another so intensely that nothing else mattered. Then think of Maria. She's simply another drunk bitch. She already appears like she's older than I am. Her skin is horrible, and she looks unwell most of the time. She claims that no one cares.
