I always suspected that Charlotte didn’t really like me. After all, she was 18 when I was born – already an adult and with her own life, while I was just the unplanned child who complied. Our Father, however, had loved me idolatrously, which only removed them further from me. I grew up in his shadow, followed him all over the house, helped him with everything – repairs, cooking, housework – and he was always there for me.
