I lifted my head, staring at every adult in the room one by one as I spoke my sentence.

The pain hit me like a tidal wave. My body crumpled to the floor, too weak to even open my eyes.
"Father, enough. Clarissa is still young. She still can't tell what's right and what's wrong. As the eldest, this is my fault. I'll teach her properly."
