what should I do?
Sarah,
Take a deep breth, say the Lord's Prayer, and then think about the words you just said. "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us". Seems to me that you have taken responsibility for your actions (and that shows courage and a resolve to get your act together). Now, your sisters don't have any honorable alternative but to forgive you for if they do not they are asking God not to forgive them for any and all of their screw ups in the same way they would not forgive you. "Forgive us ... as we forgive those who trespass against us".
You have shown the guts to face up to your mistakes and I for one would be proud to call you Friend. Can your sisters do any less? No matter how this turns out you have proven yourself a good person even when under terrible pressure. Keep your chin up, we all make horrible mistakes but lots of us lack the courage to do anything about those mistakes. You have already won the battle that counts.
