My aunt was caught cheating by my uncle. In a panic, she called my parents, begging them to save her. But when they arrived, my uncle, who had XYY syndrome, stabbed them to death because of what she'd done. My uncle was sentenced to death, and my brother and I became orphans. To get her hands on the land and savings my parents left for my brother and me, my aunt went to court and became our legal guardian. From then on, life for my brother and me was pure hell. We had to fight with pigs for a place to sleep and with dogs for scraps of food. There was always work to do, and the beatings never stopped. At fifteen, my cousin, carrying the XYY syndrome, slashed my face with a knife and molested me. When my brother stood up to him, my aunt and her man beat him so badly that his legs were broken. They chained him in the pigsty and fed him pig food. They threatened my brother's life, forcing me to use my body to earn money for them. In the end, my brother killed himself by smashing his head against the pigsty wall. I set the house ablaze, determined to take my aunt and her whole family with me. We all perished in the fire. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the night my aunt called our parents for help.
