Leaving Mama Calvin's stall, Vicky decided to head home.
She was feeling extremely angered because of what was happening in their lives. She knew it without saying that this was Tod's doing. She had seen his angry face when she had refused him once again. She had been there while he threw Mike over to the coaches. She was there to see his face as he left her mother's room after almost beating life out of her. She knew that Tod was using this means as a way of forcing her to yield to him. Should she agree to his demands or continue resisting? ASnd if she agreed to the demands, will Tod stop hurting her family? Then what about her, if she gets pregnant of her step-father? What will her mother say? What will her friends say? What about the community? What would her future be? Vicky pondered over these questions as she trudged home, carrying her back-pack on her back.
