Unexpected Love

Mom and Dad

Louis and I walk off the bus and start heading towards the house. We get to the door and Louis looks at me. "You ready?" He asks. "I think so." I say and he opens the door and we walk in. And his parents I mean our parents are sitting in the living room with what appears to be two investigators. Our parents stand up and look at me. My mother gets tears in her eyes so does my father."Hi." I say. "It really is you. Oh Lacey we have missed you so much." My mother says and hugs me and I hug her back. And we cry together then my dad hugs me after my mum lets me go."Oh sweetie its been so long." He says. "The investigators are hear to ask some questions." "Okay." I say and they bring me to the couch and I sit down. I look at Louis. "Can you get Harry I want him here next to me." "Of course. I'll be right back." Louis says. "Hi Lacey I'm David and this is my partner Beth and we're just going to get your story and ask some questions okay?" The man says. "Okay." I say."Lacey can you tell me the names of the people who took you?" David asks. Louis and Harry walk in and Harry rushes over to me and hugs me. I hug him back then releases me."They're names were Andy and Elizabeth Dashwood. Elizabeth died in a car accident when I was 10." I say and he writes down what I'm saying. "How did they treat you?" He asks. "When Elizabeth was alive things were fine we were a family. But after she died my fath... I mean Andy became an alcoholic and abused me and treated me like a slave. I was his punching bag.""Is that how you got the cut on your face?" "Yes and I also have bruises on my arms and legs." I tell them. "Can we take some pictures so we can charge him of abuse?"I nod my head. "You'll have to come and see the medical examiner. Would you like to do that now and get it over with?" "Sure." I say. "We'll drive you." My mum says. "Okay. Can Harry come?" I ask. "Of course he can sweetie." Mum says."One more question before we go. Where can we find Mr. Dashwood?" "In Chicago, IL. We moved there from here in England when I was 14." I say. "I see. Okay then." He says and we all leave.
