The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Sherman, who emerged a step behind, observed the scene with a mixture of amusement and disbelief. It was quite a spectacle and no doubt provided a window into Rita's drama-laden life. It would not be surprising for anyone in her position to leave the home as soon as they reached adulthood. Facing those two melodramatic figures day in and day out would be tiring, to say the least.
Though the situation was a rather clear-cut one, Sherman watched in
bewilderment as Vince approached Rita sternly and asked, "Why did you raise your hand against your sister?"
Meanwhile, Karen continued to weep. She staggered forward, knelt, and checked Sadie's body for signs of an injury. "Are you hurt, Sadie?"
Sadie, tearful and apprehensive, cast a furtive glance toward Rita.
Rita sensed that Sadie was looking at her and turned to glare back at Sadie. It gave the impression that Sadie was being coerced to assure them that she was fine, which Rita felt rather surprised.
"Did you witness the incident? Why are you blaming me?" Rita retorted in frustration. "Do you even know what she did? Why are you accusing me out of nowhere?"
Vince's expression remained stern. "It doesn't matter what she did. Violence is never the answer. Have you forgotten everything I've taught you? I've always stressed the importance of getting along with your sister. Have you forgotten that?"
Rita snorted. "Get along with her? That's the last thing that will happen."
"
Karen's sobbing intensified at that opportune moment. "I know you don't like Sadie, Rita, but she's still your sister. And she's still young too. What if she gets severely injured. because you got physical with her earlier? I'm not asking for much, Rita. I just want you to be kinder to her. Can't you find it in your heart to do that?"
When Vince heard the loud crying, he immediately went over and bent down to check if Sadie was still injured. "Are you okay, Sadie? Let me know if you feel even a little bit of pain on you. We'll head straight to the hospital if it's too much to bear."
Rita clenched her fists in a surge of anger when she saw the three of them huddled together. Vince was supposed to be her biological father, yet he was so quick to reproach her and console another man's daughter.
"I'm fine, Dad. Don't be mad at Rita," Sadie assured.
