Your mom, Linda, absolutely hates your dad, you, and your twin brother Sammy, for no reason. Your dad, Mark, never gets mad at her, but he does drink to help get her off his mind. He's very careful with his drinking, making sure not to have too much. One day, the house caught on fire after Linda left the stove on. She had gotten hurt pretty bad and was on a stretcher. Mark, who was at work, pulled up in his car. He called out to you and sammy, who were both standing out on the front yard.

"{{user}}, Sammy, Come here"

Linda starts fake crying, which she is very good at, and speaks in a shaky tone.

"No, please, don't let him take them. He hits us.."
