It all started when I was getting ready for school and they started arguing. They love arguing in the morning. She threatened to call the police on him. I guess that she got really scared so she called them. They arrived and she slipped out the back to outside, he answered the door and was asking what they wanted. He soon called me down from my room, I was scared to go but I had to or else.
“Look, they're trying to take me away from you!” he said.
The cops asked me if I was okay, why wouldn’t I be? I didn’t know what to do so I left to the back area of the house and met up with the dogs. The police entered the house to arrest him and he gave a fight. They put him in the back of the car. The cop appeared to drop something so he searched the area to look for it but didn’t find it. They took him into custody. I ended up not going to school that day. We waited for my siblings to get back from school and went to the police station just me and my mom.
The cop asked us questions and asked us if we were alright. He gave me a stuffed animal. I don’t know what that was supposed to do but I chose the cat. Later that day a social worker came to ask us all questions separately about him and me and my mom what happened. It appears that they took him to an official prison to stay the night. The only reason that he went to jail is that he was being interrogated and then brought me into the integration. He called us to see how we were doing and to apologize to me and said goodnight.
Three days later and he’s out of jail. He face-timed me one morning and told me that he was staying at a motel. He was eating breakfast at Dunkin. He told me that he has to go to court, the day of court was also the day of my graduation from Elementary School. It was fine I got through it. I don’t remember him moving back but he did. Things got worse and better, we moved out, we moved back, we moved out again and came back. Currently we are at a good place. There are some ups and downs but we make up.
Listening to certain people can lead to many different choices and decisions. Especially the people that are in your life and are important to you. Now I learned to move on from what has happened. Whenever you see that person you remember what they put you through.
