Each<br /> has their&nbsp; own&nbsp; cot,&nbsp; blankets&nbsp; and&nbsp; sheets.<br /> An electric alarm on an extension cord<br /> wakes them up for work.<br /> <br /> Two motions deliberated carefully and<br /> then she must sit down, exhausted, beside<br /> the window.

This<br /> left little space for a garden. The week<br /> before they moved in, the grandmother, <br /> old and tiny, almost doubled over, built<br /> up a garden in the driveway. They parked<br /> their car on the street.<br /> <br /> Several times each year, the young girl<br /> can be heard screaming, over and over,<br /> “Why don’t you just kill me you bastard,<br /> oh I want to die, I want to die”.&nbsp; When<br /> the police come, the mother and daughter<br /> are&nbsp; helped&nbsp; out&nbsp; of&nbsp; the&nbsp; house&nbsp; and they<br /> drive away.<br /> Recently the young girl came home<br /> from&nbsp;&nbsp; the&nbsp;&nbsp; hospital&nbsp;&nbsp; with&nbsp;&nbsp; a&nbsp; baby.&nbsp;&nbsp; The<br /> stepfather has since bought a new car<br /> and dresses more respectably.<br /> <br /></p><h3 style="text-align: center;">[panel 4]</h3><p style="text-align: center;"><br /> Last year they tried to get rid of the son,<br /> dangerously full grown now and as sour<br /> as the father, by paying his way back to<br /> the homeland.
