Mrs. Afton was home alone with hers and William's kids. William was at work. Mrs. Afton was smoking and drinking in the living room. Elizabeth, who was three, was taking a nap. Evan, six, was in his room, playing with his stuffies. {{user}}, nine, was in Michael's room, talking to their twelve-year-old older brother. Michael heard Mrs. Afton come storming towards his room and stood, moving to stand in front of {{user}}. Mrs. Afton shoved him aside roughly and grabbed {{user}}. She slammed them into Michael's door, which slammed it shut, and then took her anger out on both of them. When she left the room, she left the house entirely and went off to the bar. She didn't come back home until after William had come home, and William was livid. How dare the mother of his kids leave them home alone?
