her truth

restraining order

Having her older sister come over, Sandra was to the side of the table has she was to the website to fill out a retaining order for Sandra to be chewing at the inside of her mouth, she couldn't believe things came to this, but after what Diego did, Sandra knew she needed to protect herself and her daughter.
Her older sister then looked to her.
"You want to add the children right?"
"Well.... Should I? He only hurt me and....."
"He has Anger issues and you should add them, I'm adding them."
Sandra signed.
"Really wish I had my lawyer to help me."
"Unfortunately he is very expensive, if I had money I would help."
Sandra rolled her eyes.
She had to pay her older sister to come down to help her with this, Sandras older sister Wanda always asked for money, she wasn't in a good financial place.
"Okay, I did it, you will receive a date to go over things and you will either get one or you won't."
Sandra started to play with her hands.
"I'm scared about this."
"I know but what you told me what Diego did is not okay, after this, Sandra you really need to stop being so trusting and getting in cars with him."
"I didn't know he was going to do this."
Sandra then started to believe this was her fault, Wanda turned to eye her.
"I know. But why did you get in the car?"
"My lawyer had said, to get his behavior on camera, so I can use it in court, that was the reason at first, I also thought he wanted to talk about the divorce, I just want it to be over, want everything to be 50/50. I was just trying to....."
Sandra signed to then eye down.
"Sandra, it's never going to be 50/50 with him. Right now him and his lawyer are drawing this out so he can have you use all your money, and right now he has you, your running out of money, you don't have a lawyer, what is holding things up now?"
"Apparently his lawyers father is having health issues."
"Okay..... But why haven't you two been able to end this?"
"I don't know, that's what I keep getting, then they want to go over things, I honestly don't know anymore. I want it done also, want to move on with my life and now this shit happened."
"Still doesn't make sense."
Sandra shrugged for her sister to then get up to place on her bag.
"Well I need to get going, let me know what happens okay, you need to stay strong for the girls."
Sandra looked over her sister to then pay her to see her leave to groan.
A week later, she met with a judge who gave her a temporary restraining order via email, Sandra read over it to become very sad, she didn't want things to come to this, signing, she then took care of the girls has that was the day Diego was suppose to have them, she called the police an hour before to talk to them.
"Well, I have a restraining order right now, he is on his way to pick up the girls but they are on it, what am I suppose to do? I did print it out, should I give it to him?"
"Well, if you're afraid of him and since he physically hurt you, I wouldn't do that "
"What am I suppose to do then? With this paper he can't have the girls, I don't want to send this to his lawyer, she scares me. Probably will find a way out of it."
"What we can do is send some police officers over there to give him the paperwork, I would just keep the door locked."
Sandra nodded.
"Guess that is the only way."
"Okay, I will send some officers your way."
Sandra got off the phone for her stomach to start to hurt, she didn't like this whole situation, she then went downstairs to see her children on tablets, to be even more nervous, she was all alone, her father had gone to the hospital and she didn't have anyone with her, Sandra then started on dinner, after a bit, she looked to the time to know Diego would be on his way but no police had came, she then plated to then call the police again.
"So far there are no police and my ex will be coming to get the children, what am I suppose to do?"
"It's a bit busy tonight. Stay on the phone with me and I will send police to you right away."
Sandra nodded to be to the girls room has she was waiting to be internally freaking out, to then go to the window to look down to then get text messages from Diego.
"Diego is here and wants the girls what am I to do?"
"You have to stall him. Police are on there way, stay on the phone with me."
"Should I just give him the paperwork, I don't want to get him mad."
"Since this is an assault, I wouldn't recommend it."
Sandra rolled her eyes to then text Diego.
Sandra: the girls are still eating there dinner, I'm sorry just have to wait a moment.
Diego: okay.
Sandra placed the phone to her ear to wait 30 minutes.
"The police are still not here, he is starting to wonder what is going on."
"They should be there shortly, stay on the phone with me."
Sandra started to pace upstairs to start to feel the shit, she kept peering her eyes down to then breathe out in relief, the police then came to go about Diego.
"The police are here."
"Okay, they should let him know about the restraining order."
Sandra and the police hung up for her to eye over to see three police around Diego to be showing him the paperwork, for Diego to be to his phone for them to talk for a moment for Diego to then get in the car to leave for Sandra to then go downstairs to talk to the police, they let her know they talked to him about the restraining order, he was not too happy about it and he left, Sandra nodded for them to leave for her to go back inside to place her back to the door to eye up.
Now he knows...... Something bad is going to happen.
Sandra took in a very deep inhale to feel so very sick to then go to her girls to hug them and tight not to know what was going to happen.
