“What’s the problem with me hitting her? I’m Cody’s sister, so Mabel’s practically my daughter-in-law. It’s only fair that I put her in her place! And don’t think you’re off the hook. I’ll deal with you, too!”
She twisted, aiming another strike at me.
I responded with a sharp slap, sending her sprawling to the floor.
Seeing Sarah losing ground, the boy grabbed a chair from the floor and swung it toward me.
I quickly snatched a nearby vase, smashed it, and brandished the sharpest shard I could find, holding it against the boy’s neck.
At that moment, my mom rushed over, shoving the boy aside and grabbing my hand with the shard.
“Reina, don’t do this. Please, just calm down!”
Sarah stared at us in shock.
“Is this your daughter?”
