There were so many that she could not bear to even look
by Natalie’s twin sister, Yara.“Dad, Yara…” Natalie paled instantaneously.“You didn’t return all night, and we thought that something happened to you. Who knew that you would be fooling around with a man in a hotel!” Thomas pointed his finger at his daughter as he berated loudly.Yara, on the other hand, whined, “You really went too far this time, Natalie! Dad, Aunt Yvonne, and I almost went crazy looking for you!”Natalie shook her head vigorously.“N-No, I didn’t.”“Have you no shame? See those marks on your neck and limbs?
