Chapter five

I wish there was a place you could go to that the time your living in could stop and stand still and then you could go back to your past life. My parents got divorced because my mom cheated on my dad,I wish I could see how much my mom cried when she was seeing this man. Did she even cry? I seen my dad cry multiple times. It was a bullet to the heart. With every tear that I seen him shed it was like a mean man was stabbing me in the chest.

The night I found out what really was going on was a night I'll never forget. It was a cold winter night and my dad was still at work and I was asleep when "wake up",it was my brother. "What",I said rubbing my eyes. "There is a blue truck here and it's not dads" I looked outside and it was definitely not my dads.we went to go listen on the top of the steps and there was a mans voice that I have never heard before. Before I could even make out what he and my mom were saying I seen a truck pull in. MY DADS TRUCK. My brother and I ran to are beds. I listened for a minute and then I heard my dad screaming "kids wake up,get your coats were leaving". I remember getting in his truck and driving a little bit before I looked back and there was a police car following us.I looked up at my dad to see only pain all over his face.

We drove for a pretty long time until we reached my uncle teds house.It was as if my uncle knew what was going on.He had the pull out bed all set up and ready for us.We laid there and it was not long until the police came in and took my dad away.I ran out there kinda but not really knowing what was going on.I ran to my dad and remember asking "where are you going". and then he replied with "I just have to go to there store".Nothing was ever the same after that day.I was lost.
