I got up and made breakfast for Kiara and me. As she quietly walked downstairs, she had the funniest look on her face, after all she did just wake up
"Mawrnin!" She said with a pleasent smile on her face.
"Mawninn"
"How come your cooking?"
"It's the least I can do for letting me stay here"
I set the plate of eggs and pancakes down on the table in front of her.
"PANQUEQUES is served!" I said in my 'spanish' voice
"Haha, thanks Moyah". Thats her nickname for me, just like it is for most of my other friends, but its more special when she says it.
Couple of minutes after we finished eating, I took the house phone and dialed 911.
"911, Whats your emergency?" The woman said softly on the phone
"Hi, Im calling to ask if Officer Whittingham could come over to my house, its important."
"Okay, may I ask who this is and why you are calling for him?"
"My name is Tamoyah Ferguson, I was in the hospital about 2 days ago and he came in to talk to me about my mother, if you can just have him come over for a second I would really app-"
"Dont worry he's on his way now, we tracked down the phone to 181 Blossom Dr. is that correct?" She said as she cut me off from what I was trying to explain.
"Yes Thank You".

*Ding*
"Thats probably him, I said to Kiara"
"Do you want me to come with you?"
"Yes please"
As I opened the door I saw Officer Whittingham standing there, with a mean look on his face.
"Good afternoon Ms. Ferguson, its nice to see you again, may I come in?"
I turned away to look at Kiara for a signal that it was okay.
"Sure" I motioned for him to come in
Walking in I stepped to the side and began to stare at the tattoo of what seemed to be his wife and kids names on the left side of his arm.
"I was told that you wanted to talk to me about your mother"
"Yes". I said softly, still kind of curious about what I wanted to do with her. Then I managed to say,
"I want you to arrest her. She beat me again last night after we got home I couldnt take all the beatings and verbal abuse anymore so I ran away and my friend stopped by me in the street and picked me up. When I left she was sleeping, shes probably looking for me now" I said to him.
"She's living with me now!" Kiara blurted out to the police man.
"Okay. Do you and your friend want to come to the house with me, for some last words.
"No Thank You"
"Kay then, I'll call back the phone and let you know what happens."
When he walked out the door, for some reason, I started tearing up. At that time I was actually kind of happy for doing what I just did.
When I started crying, Kiara slowly opened her arms. As I walked into them I put my head on her shoulder and continued crying.
"It's okay, your moms going to be sent to jail and everything's going to be good! Cheer up"
"I'm fine." I said to her sorrowly wipping the tears off my eyes.
Its been about 10 minutes and the phone had already rung.
"Hello?"
"Hi Ms. Ferguson it's Officer W. We took your mom and she's being sent to the jail house right now"
"Thank you soo much, how can I ever re-pay you?!"
"No need. Just give the chief a good word in for me" He said humorously.
"Sure thing"
It was happening, what I thought was never going to happen finally did.
My mom is going to prison.
