Following the physical altercation between Hayden and his younger brother, Emil wasted no time and dialed 911 on his phone. Determined to ensure that Hayden faced consequences for his violent actions against Bonnie, he immediately took action.
Emil: On the phone. 911, I'm here to report a serious incident...
As the call connected, Emil relayed the details of the incident to the emergency operator, emphasizing Hayden's aggression and the threat it posed to Bonnie's safety. He made it clear that he wouldn't allow Hayden to get away with harassing Bonnie, and he wanted the authorities to intervene. The swift response of the police to Emil's call led to Hayden's arrest within less than half an hour. As the police arrived, they apprehended Hayden, who struggled in a futile attempt to free himself from their grips. In his desperation, Hayden cried out, declaring his innocence and vehemently denying any wrongdoing.
Hayden: GET OFF OF ME! He was the one who beat me up first!
Hayden: I would never hit her...NEVER!
Police: Quiet! You have the right to remain silent...
Police: You're coming with us so we can decide what other "crimes" you have possibly committed.
As the police drove away with Hayden in the backseat, Emil turned his attention to Bonnie, who stood there, a mix of fear and relief evident on her face. Understanding the emotional turmoil she must be experiencing, Emil approached her, offering comfort in the form of a supportive hug. He gently wrapped his arms around Bonnie, reassuring she was saved from Hayden's aggression.
Emil: He hugged her and said, It's alright, Bonnie. You're safe. He's forever gone...
Emil: No more slaps or hurtful words coming from him anymore. The police will take care of him.
Emil: They will have no choice but to believe me...
Bonnie hugged him back and a flood of emotions rushed on the outside. The safety of Emil's embrace allowed her to release the pent-up feelings that had been building within her. Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed deeply in his arms, letting out the pain she had suppressed for a long time. At that moment, Bonnie felt a sense of relief and gratitude. The comfort and support Emil provided made her realize that this was the first time in a long while that someone had stood up for her, showing genuine care and protection. The weight of loneliness and the trauma of Hayden's actions seemed to find an outlet in the warmth of Emil's embrace.
Emil: Is this what you meant when you told me you had to leave early?
Emil: I knew something was wrong the minute you walked off campus.
Emil: But don't cry. You did nothing wrong...
Emil: That asshole of an older brother I have...I'm tired of him hurting others and making lies about how "bad" they were.
Bonnie: She tried to dry her tears. I honestly never would've guessed he'd be your brother.
Bonnie: You're too much of an angel compared to him.
Emil: Is that so? I'm glad you feel that way...
2 days later, Emil and Bonnie were both called to the police station for more interrogation regarding Hayden's arrest. Bonnie took every ounce of courage in her to open up to the authorities about the cruel and disturbing experiences she endured during her relationship with Hayden. In a detailed account, she described the various forms of abuse she had suffered, including domestic violence, stalking, sexual assault, and gaslighting. The police listened attentively, collecting information that could be crucial for building a case against Hayden.
