It wasn't always like this, a constantly drunk mother and a scared brother. From the time she wakes up, until she sleeps, constant drinking. My brother is terrified of her, he's always thinking about what she will do next. To be honest i am too. 

You see... she is very different now, things have changed. We used to be so close until her argument with dad last week. If i even mention his name she hurts us. I just hope she calms down soon.

All i want to do is talk to him but i know i can't, its gone too far now. Mummy says that daddy is evil and we need to leave him alone and forget about him. But how can we when he is living in the same home.

She only lets us say goodnight just once to him. One hug and one kiss each. Its cramped but we manage.

He looks so cold... so empty... lifeless but the stare, like darts piercing through my soul. Mummy knows he is starting to smell but she wont move him. Im scared that we... will be next.
