#ENGLISH VERSION#
Whenever I come across the word sacrifice my heart race in fear.I have made a huge sacrifice just for my family to stay united. Is it really a sacrifice Or lack of courage to voice out? call it whatever!
I was 14, young and naive when my 26 year old brother molested me thankfully he didn't have his way.
It was the most shocking and disconcerted day of my life.
It was may 12,2019 my brother had gone out and I decided to take a nap in his room because his room was more cosy and well furnished,I don't know how long I had slept but I was awoken by the continues hauling on my undies,I stood up but two strong arms pressed me back down on the mattress ,the atmosphere was filled with strong odor of alcohol ,I struggled to loosen his grips but his strength was unmatched, I was just 14.
I started pleading for him to let go after what seems like a two score seven he briskly walked out of the room with guilt and shame boldly written on his face,my body was bruised ,all my joint were aching I had tears in the corner of my eyes I was too shocked to scream I left his room feeling ashamed and disappointed,I had to start putting on clothes that covers the marks on my body so my parents won't question me.
Do you think I did the right thing by not telling anybody about the attempted rape?,I only did what I felt was right just to protect his image,I consider this the biggest sacrifice I have ever made because if keeping a rape attempt by my brother a secret not a sacrifice what else would you call it?
I feel safe sharing this on Hive because none of my family members is on Hive.

Cada vez que me encuentro con la palabra sacrificio, mi coraz贸n se acelera de miedo. He hecho un gran sacrificio solo para que mi familia permanezca unida. 驴Es realmente un sacrificio o falta de coraje para expresarse? ll谩malo como quieras!
Yo ten铆a 14 a帽os, era joven e ingenuo cuando mi hermano de 26 a帽os abus贸 sexualmente de m铆. Afortunadamente no se sali贸 con la suya.
Fue el d铆a m谩s impactante y desconcertado de mi vida.
Era el 12 de mayo de 2019 mi hermano hab铆a salido y decid铆 tomar una siesta en su habitaci贸n porque su habitaci贸n era m谩s acogedora y estaba mejor amueblada, no s茅 cu谩nto tiempo hab铆a dormido pero me despertaron los continuos arrastres. En ropa interior, me levant茅 pero dos brazos fuertes me presionaron contra el colch贸n, la atm贸sfera se llen贸 de un fuerte olor a alcohol, luch茅 por soltar sus agarres pero su fuerza era incomparable, solo ten铆a 14 a帽os.
Comenc茅 a suplicarle que lo dejara ir despu茅s de lo que parec铆a un dos punto siete, sali贸 r谩pidamente de la habitaci贸n con la culpa y la verg眉enza escritas audazmente en su rostro, mi cuerpo estaba magullado, me dol铆an todas las articulaciones, ten铆a l谩grimas en las esquinas. Mis ojos estaba demasiado sorprendido para gritar. Sal铆 de su habitaci贸n sinti茅ndome avergonzado y decepcionado, tuve que empezar a ponerme ropa que cubriera las marcas en mi cuerpo para que mis padres no me cuestionaran.
驴Crees que hice lo correcto al no contarle a nadie sobre el intento de violaci贸n? Solo hice lo que sent铆 que era correcto para proteger su imagen. Considero que este es el mayor sacrificio que he hecho en mi vida porque si no es un sacrificio, 驴qu茅 har铆a? 驴lo llamas?
Me siento seguro compartiendo esto en Hive porque ninguno de los miembros de mi familia est谩 en Hive.
