[Artist's comments]Summarized
“Sister, will I make it?”
My little sister's face was like that of a demon that had leapt from hell. Blood oozing from at least ten gashes was caked over her face. I was too shocked to speak, but she managed to faintly ask me,“Sister, will I make it?”I still hear that voice.
