God Have Mercy On My Older Sister Part 2

Tweet

After my sister brought me home, we sat and had a long talk. She told me how one day she and her husband got into a big arguement and he was yelling at her so bad and seeming like he would hit her. He got the shock of his life when their 17, 16, and 14 year old got in his face and was getting ready to beat him up. Now mind you, my brother-in-law is a big old terror. He is about 6ft. 3 inches and a when large guy. When I use to live there, he would go off on one child so bad that everyone in the house would be in tears. Including my sister and I. But, my sister says that his yelling does not even phase his children anymore. He's big, but their oldest son is 6ft 2in. and the girl and other boy are not far behind. Now, the girl is his first born daughter and his favorite. But, when the oldest boy decided they should apologize to their father, she wanted to know what for. I told my sister that this is gauranteed. There is no way they are going to just sit around and let anyone, including their father, mistreat their mother. They are sick of it and too old to just stand by and allow it to happen. Then she told me something else. I kind of already knew it, but now it has been confirmed. When my sister was pregnant with her second son, her husband got another woman pregnant. When I lived there, he bragged to me about it one day and I told my sister right away. Well, she confronted him about it and he came and got and attitude with me. I told him, that is my sister, what did you expect me to do. He goes, well she is my wife and she has my kids. I said that is my blood. And there was nothing else he could say. So anyway, she tells me that this past summer, he got a little extra money in his pocket. So he started bringing the girl over to play with his other kids. Some how, his two youngest daughters got into a fight with the girl and he cussed them out so bad that they were crying. He told them that they better get along with her. He loves his children dearly, he would never go off on them for another child. Then the girl started bringing one of her friends over and she stated telling my nieces and nephews that the girl was their sister. The next time she came over, her mom brought her. My 14 year old niece went out to the car and told the mom, we don't want your daughter here and don't ever bring her back. The 14 year old got cussed out again, but the girl never came back. Then the son that is the same age as the girl, got on the internet and e-mail his older step brother and asked him if he knew about the girl. He told him yes. My nephew was like, man, why didn't you tell me. He is so angry. This then 13 year old child, went to his mother and told her, mommy I have something to tell you that might hurt you. He broke the news to her. My sister says that she has found peace with everything. But, I don't have peace with any of it. To top it all off, she tells me that by next Thanksgiving, they will be living in Atlanta, because her husband wants to sell the house and move there. The first thing that came out of my mouth was, oh no you are not moving there. She does not want to go, but she is following him. My sister works and pays the mortgage. He is so sick that all he does is lay around and watch television all day. He has heart failure, diabetes, high blood pressure, he recently quit drinking and cut down on smoking. For the life of me I don't know why my sister stays with that man. He doesn't even try to eat right. My sister said, a nurse told her not too long ago, to make sure his burial insurance is paid up, because he will be dead soon. I hate myself for what I thought after she said that. I mean, I feel for the guy and all that, but we are talking about my family here and he has put them through enough. I just pray that my sister and her children's suffering is over soon.
