I tried to explain, but Amy dragged Beaumont
away.
Before leaving, Mom shoved me, calling me a
bitch.
“Amy’s always been good. She couldn’t have
lost her virginity.‘

“You’re lying, you disgusting thing!”
She didn’t know Amy wasn’t a virgin. I wasn’t
in a hurry. If Amy wanted to delay the
inevitable, I’d let her.
The wedding ceremony began. Amy looked
unconcerned.
Mom was proud, bragging, “That’s my
younger daughter. She’s pure. Mr. Beaumont
loves that.”
But Beaumont would soon find out. Amy’s
fate would be sealed.
After the ceremony, Amy slipped away.
I followed her to a seedy clinic. She paid for a
hymenoplasty.
She was brazen. Didn’t she fear infection? It
wouldn’t matter. She was pregnant. The truth
would come out. She just didn’t want to
believe it.

Amy hurried back. Beaumont was drunk,
embracing her, ready for sex. She saw me,
smug.
“Sister, I’m a rich wife now!”
I said nothing, watching her as Beaumont
carried her to their room.
