________________________________
My teddy has a missing eye. I like to pretend that teddy is a pirate. Pirates are supposed to go on wonderful adventures. I wonder why teddy doesn't take me with him.
"Alright Janice maybe I will."
"Oh yeah, that'll be the day."
" You wanna know something Janice?"
"What Clyde?"
My daddy always asks mommy if she wants to know something. Maybe she doesn't know enough.
"Actually do you want to know something? I am sick and tired of you bullsh-"
BANG
What was that? Teddy and me are real scared. I hug him closer to me.
"Oh shit oh shit!"
Daddy comes running into the room.
"Come on Grace pack up your stuff."
Yay are we going on a trip?
"Are we going on a trip daddy?"
"Uh yes honey very far away."
KNOCK KNOCK
"Hello? Open this door immediately this is the LAPD! Open up!"
BANG
A man in a uniform runs into my room. Why is he all dressed up like a sheriff? Not a cowboy sheriff, more like a robo-cop. I giggle because teddy thinks it is funny too. Another one walks in and puts shiny bracelets on daddy's hands.
"You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used..."
The other robo-cop bends down to me and talks.
"Hey Sweetie we're gonna go for a ride but first i'm gonna need you to close your pretty blue eyes while I hold you. It'll be sorta like a game, huh?"
"Okay"
Teddy loves games. I wonder if mommy wants to play too?
