"I knew Sally was a nice girl, even a sister to me! But...... I had no idea anyone noticed how I always had bruises......." Rose murmured, looking at Bert and sighing. "He used to beat me when I did something wrong, and no one tried to stop it, because they knew if they did that they'd be dead. It's already happened to three people, and I really hope it doesn't happen to you Bert." Rose said, looking at Bert and touching her shoulder, which was covered by her long sleeved dress. She slowly pulled it up as she closed her own eyes, showing him the giant bruises in the shape of fits that littered her arm like the side of the highway. "Now that you know Bert....... You can't tell anyone. You must promise me that you won't! Alright?" Rose asked, hoping that he would agree and not be upset that this had happened to her.
