“My Hand Hurts So Much! Can I Rest For A Bit?” The Little Girl Was Forced To Do Housework Until She Bled By Her Stepmother And The Ending When Her Father Suddenly Returned…
βMy hand hurts so much! Can I rest for a bit?β eight-year-old Sophie Miller whispered as she scrubbed the wooden floor of the small suburban house in Ohio. Her little palms were red and raw, with tiny cuts bleeding from the rough scrubbing brush.
Her stepmother, Janet, stood towering over her with crossed arms and a cold expression.
βNo, you lazy child! Your fatherβs not here, and someone has to keep this house in order. Get back to work!β
Sophie had lived under Janetβs control ever since her mother passed away three years earlier. At first, Sophie believed things would get better, but instead, life turned into a cycle of cooking, cleaning, and endless scolding. Janet rarely allowed her to rest or play, claiming that βdiscipline builds character.β

Tears blurred her vision, but she tried to hide them.
The neighbors sometimes saw her outside hanging laundry, her small figure struggling under the weight of wet sheets. A few whispered concerns, but Janet always smiled sweetly in public, insisting Sophie was βhelpfulβ and βindependent.β
Inside the house, Sophieβs voice went unheard. And as she collapsed onto the cold floor, gripping her sore hands, Janet shouted again, βStop pretending! You think hard work will kill you? Youβre just lazy, like your mother!β
