My elder brother, sister and I all stared down at the floor, on which was a childs handwriting in chalk. I was frightened, and the only words that came from my mouth were, “Not me, Dad.” It wasnt that I was a bad kid, but the look on my dads face made me feel cold. Father had a way about him when I was a child that made me afraid of him, but it gave me my limits to what I could and could not do. He loved all of us and we respected him. I wanted to please him, of course. Maybe thats why I held back the truth that day. He disappeared for minutes and came back with a piece of paper and a pencil and said, “I want each of you to write exactly what you see on the floor.” I was not a foolish kid, though. So when my dad compared the handwriting, he still couldnt tell which one of us did it. “Since none of you seemed to have done it, you all get a spanking,” said my father angrily. What?! The last thing I wanted was a spanking! “I did it,” someone said and I was sure it wasnt me. I looked around and saw my sister come forward. By that time, I had already figured out why my sister took the rap for it. She was my protector, though she was only three years older than me. And she would rather take the pain herself than see me suffer. We all joke about it now, including my sister. When I think back to that day, I know I learned the value of a sister who would do anything for me. And Im glad to say that I will do the same for her.1.
