Who would have thought

The break up

"LET GO!!!" I said as he grabbed my arm and slammed the door."YOU CAN'T LEAVE!!!!!!" Eric screamed. I could smell the alcohol in is breath stronger than usual. Tears running down my face. He locked the door. I sat down crying trying to block him out, but every time I cover my hears or scream back he got louder. At this point the neighbors had called the cops. As soon as he heard the sirens he silenced unlocked the door ,changed turned ,the tv on to the sports ,and then told me to go in the bedroom until he's "ready" for me to come out "get dressed while your at it!" Eric yells from across the torn up apartment. Quickly the sirens became louder, there was a knock on the door. Eric answered the door and a tall muscular cop showed up. He asked a lot of questions about what the neighbors told him they heard. "Is there a woman in the apartment?" He asked. I came into the living room. Eric stared at me with an angry glare you could see from a mile away. "Is Something wrong Mr. Duvall?" The silence filled the room."no,everything's fine" Eric said. Slowly he turned back to the cop and proceeds answering questions. He started asking me questions none of which were really important. Then he finally asked "is your boyfriend abusive at all?" I immediately looked at Eric as he stared at me. I paused then something came over me and I grew this confidence that I never thought I had and told the cop everything.
