Mommas POV ( tomorrow is my step brothers birthday so happy 9th birthday Mason:)
"Get up!" I continue to look down at the ground as the man continues to pull my arm. When I finally look up, I glance over at the staircase and see my son with a phone to his ear calling someone I'm assuming he doesn't think anyone sees him. I don't want my children to go through this, but they do.
"Get off of me" I shrug away from the man and grab the edge of the coffee table. I get back up and grab an empty bottle that was once filled with bourbon and jerk it at the man I love. I glance back over at the staircase and my son is gone. The Terrence, the man I force myself to love, gets hit in the head with the empty bottle and comes right back to me. He is now full of anger. Too much anger. Way too much anger. He raises his fist and slams it into my jaw.
"Don't touch another piece of skin on her body" My son practically raises his tone at Terrence. Shoot. "Oh now you want some? You're a disgrace and nothing mo-" a loud bang on the door cuts him off. Who is that? Was Dami calling someone for help? Oh God.
"Who the heck is that?" Terrence shouts.
"I don't know" I Lie.
"What do you mean you don't know? This is you're house"
"I don't know I swear" I continue to lie
"Open up" The police officer says. I look at the door, then at my son, then back at the door. My son rushes over to the door and opened it. "Hi, come in please." My son says out of breath. "Hello, there was a report of domestic abuse?" I glance over at Terrence who is starring at me. If looks could kill, I would be dead already. "ye-" I cut off my son by saying "No sir there is no issue here" I give the best fake smile I can. "Ma'am are you sure? What happened to you're eye?" HE questions. "My eye? I was outside helping my daughter with something and she punched me, on accident of course" I'm not sure why I'm lying. "Okay ma'am" The Officer says while staring at Terrence. He walks out the door and Dami is right behind him. Dami whispers something to him and shuts the door.
