How she had known him for over 20 years, slept next to him every night, talked about everything under the sun with him, saw that he was a substitute teacher and how all the kids loved him. How everyone, including my mother, was blindsided, stunned, unable to accept it for truth that this mason/Shriner, volunteer at charities, Christian, wonderful father/teacher/husband, charismatic man had been sexually abusing his oldest daughter for years.
You can think you know your friend all you want but that doesn't mean you do.
You do have a point. I'm not sure how someone can get away with such a thing, right in front of people who see them every day. I guess this would be a hard situation to be in.
It's a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing. The rest of the world sees Dr. Jekyll while his victim sees Mr. Hyde behind closed doors. People can be charming and charismatic one moment, shut the door, and slam someone up against a wall the next.
