00:00My mother began to physically beat me, and she was beating me, and my head hit the bump
00:05bed.
00:05All I know, she put fear in me.
00:07She told me that when we go to the hospital, this is what I need to say.
00:10My sister, who's five years older than me, from the time I can remember, she would make
00:17me do things like lay on top of her.
00:19She would make me put my face in her.
00:23I remember one time I didn't want to have sex with her.
00:26I was probably about nine years old.
00:27She slapped me with a shoe across my face.
00:29I was being hit with extension cords, different objects, and she didn't take me to the hospital
00:34because she didn't want to get in trouble.
00:36Around about 11 years old, my sister had gotten pregnant.
00:41She goes to my mom, and she asks my mother if her boyfriend could live in the house with
00:46us.
00:46So he moves in.
00:48My mom could be coming down the stairs, and he would maybe grab my breasts or touch my
00:52butt or touch my through my clothes.
00:56If somebody wanted to touch me, I didn't have the right to say no.
00:58One day, he asked to have sex with me.
01:01Like, I remember telling him, no, I don't want to have sex like I was a virgin.
01:06It happened a lot of times, at least 15 times over one summer.
01:10In the midst of all of this, I'm in my mom's room sleeping.
01:14I wake up in the middle of the night, and my mother is in between my legs.
01:17And right away, I jump.
01:20I'm confused.
01:21I'm like, what's happening?
01:23As she's walking away, there's on the TV.
