Michael sat in with us since he was now her primary doctor.

There were two police officers, a man and a woman, the woman immediately sat in front of Briley, dropping to her level and giving her the kindest smile.

"How are you, baby?" She asked her.

Briley crumbled at the words, but immediately started picking herself back up, wiping her tears before anyone could say anything.

"I'm okay." Briley lied as I rubbed her back gently, silently telling her that I was right there.

"How long has your dad been hurting you?" She asked calmly.

"Years. He used to hurt my mom, but she gave up her rights to Ben and I and just disappeared one day, and that's pretty much when he started hurting Ben and I." She told her calmly.

The police asked her so many questions, some that she struggled to answer, some that she answered so quickly.

Some of the questions even made me wish I didn't have to hear the answer.

It took a completely evil man to put her through everything she went through.

We all sat closely as she showed them pictures she had taken from a lot of the abuse, giving them all of the physical proof that they needed.

"Okay sweetie, just a few more questions." The lady spoke, glancing to her partner, making sure he was still writing down what she was saying.

"Your doctors mentioned to us that your father put an object inside you-" "please, don't" Briley interrupted her, making me grab her arm gently, feeling her immediately move her arm, making it to where she could hold my hand.

"I'm so sorry, Briley" she spoke calmly.

Briley continued to look away from her.

"Was this the first time this had happened or was stuff like this a normal occurrence?" She asked.

"It was the first time." Briley spoke strongly.

"He had drank a lot more than he normally does, so I think that had something to do with it, I'm not sure- yesterday was the worst day we've ever had." She spoke quietly.

"Okay, Briley" the police spoke calmly.

"I am so sorry that you had to go through all of this, and I assure you, myself along with every officer in the department is determined to get your father in handcuffs and never let him out of them." She told her calmly.

Briley just nodded.

"We are going to leave six officers here until we have him detained, two at each of their doors and then two at the entrance." She told me as she stood, making me nod.

"Miss Briley" she spoke, making Briley look to her

"Thank you for being so brave."

Briley smiled to her, soon watching her leave directly after, michael leaving with them to give him his medical statement.

I looked to her, making her look to me.

"Do you think they could grab me some clothes from my house?" She spoke quietly.

"I think I have some extra clothes here that you can wear, they'll be a little big but it's better than the hospital gowns-" "I need my sweatpants" she spoke to me.

"I have sweatpants that you can wear-" "no- you don't get it. It's my comfort outfit- it's my favorite sweatpants, they make me comfortable, I need my sweatpants." She spoke to me, seeming almost panicked from it. 

"Okay." I told her with a nod

"I will ask them if they can grab you a bag while they are there"
