Brielle's pov
I told Jacob about my dad last night and he says he'll fix it so I'm putting my trust in him to. He picked out my outfit and I put it on it was a really cute long sleeve dress. We're walking downstairs for breakfast when we hear someone knocking on the door. Christa goes rushing by to answer the door and when she comes back she has a smile on her face. Behind her are three people, a cop, a lady that kinda looks like a social worker, and the last man I'm not entirely sure but they were dressed sharply with a no nonsense face.
" Brielle this is officer Gunderman, Miss Reynolds a social worker with the county, and Mr. Abrams our family lawyer " Christa introduces everyone.
" Hello Brielle I'm here to talk about your father, his custody over you, and your placement if this investigation goes against your father " Miss Reynolds says to me. Mr. Gunderman and myself are going to ask you a few questions with Mr. Abrams present as your legal representation " she continued to explain the process to me. We head into the living room so it's more comfortable to talk and I take a seat on the couch." now that we are seated we can get started, Brielle can you tell us how your dad treats you when you two are alone together " miss Reynolds asked. " father is really mean, he shouts at me and glares at me " I started but decide to continue with telling them about the neglect. " But that only when he's home, he leave me home a lot for days on end while he goes on business trip, he also put me in online schooling to make sure he doesn't have to waste his time with going to the school in public, one of the last things is anything less than an ' A ' is unsatisfactory and he screams at me about being a stupid and useless girl " I finished up now holding back tears.
" ok honey now do you have any family you can stay with " Miss Reynolds asked me. " my mom took off when I was 5 and I haven't seen or heard from her since, I really want to stay with Jacob and Christa they are really nice and I would hurt really bad inside if I had to leave them " I told Miss Reynolds hoping she wouldn't take me away from here. " ok honey I'm going to talk to Jacob and Mrs. Niles and see what we can accomplish " said a very optimistic and bubbly Miss Reynolds. I went to the kitchen while they called Jacob and Christa in to talk to them.
I walked to the fridge and got out a carton of pineapple juice to pour myself a big cup. I could still hear all of the muffled murmurs coming from the other room. Me being my clumsy self I tripped and dropped the pineapple juice making it go all over the floor. I can feel the tears brimming in my eyes and thought ' good job brielle now you got us in trouble ', I really don't want to use a wrong towel so I'll own up and go tell Jacob and Christa.
I run into the living room " um Christa I tripped and accidentally dropped the carton of pineapple juice and it spilled, I don't know which towel to use to clean it up " I said bursting into tears st the last handful of words. " oh honey Jacob will come with you and help you clean it up, it'll be just fine so wipe those tears " Christa said giving me a big hug. Jacob came over and let me to where the towel are and helped me clean up, he didn't even yell at me. We went back into the living room to hear the very joyful voice of Christa and she was hugging a very uncomfortable officer gunderman practically shouting ' thank you, thank you, thank you ' over and over again.
I can only assume that we are ok and I'm going to be staying here. " honey we have made Christa your custodial guardian for the next few months until you turn eighteen " Miss reynolds says happily. I started jumping around laughing and going back and forth hugging Christa, jacob, and the three present company. " have a wonderful day darling we'll get going now and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day " Miss Reynolds exclaimed.
Jacob turned around and held out his hand saying " come on baby let's go get you that juice ". And I happily took his hand knowing this was the start of something wonderful.
