I watch as tears slip down Jordan's face . I'm frozen . I don't know what to do . I hate seeing her like this but I also know sometimes it feels better just to cry it out . She hasn't cried at all since she woke up, maybe it's about time she did . I place my hand on her back and rub up and down . Soothing an comforting yet non forceful .

"Alright let's continue . It'll only be a few more questions ." Brent ushers .

Question : Did John drink a lot ?

K: Yes . The first time I met him was in 7th grade , at her old house . I walked into Mrs. Aprils bedroom and was immediately greeted by the smell of smoke and alcohol . Every time I would hang out or spend the night with her, he would have a beer can.

J: He always did ! He sobered up a few days after rehab then he insisted one drink would be fine so he drank again . I was convinced he had an addiction . He always had a beer in his hand or a cigarette in his mouth . I was never unfamiliar with the smell of alcohol .

Question : Describe his behavior when he was intoxicated .

K: He wasn't exactly abusive when he was but he wasn't exactly friendly either . He wasn't physical more verbal .

J: He wasn't physically abusive but he was a very rude an cruel man . Every time he was drunk he would force me to do chores or ridiculous . He was a very verbal abuser . He would taint you with words that really got to you and stuck with you . Some making you self conscious . Sometimes he would be overly excited or hyper .

"Final question ."

Question: Has this sort of thing ever happened to you personally .?

K: I've been verbally abused . But not by my parents, more from classmates or peers . It wouldn't effect me though . I would just brush those words off .

J: My real dad abused me verbally as well . I've never been physically abused by anyone . I may receive the occasional slap from my mother when I'm being ignorant, so I deserve it to some extent .

"Alright that's all the questions we will be asking ." Brent shifts .

"Are we allowed to leave ?" Jordan mumbles .

"Sure . We'll be in touch . If you will, check out at the desk for your court date ." He instructs .

I nod . And stand up to push Jordan .

"Thank you for your corporation ." Brent adds .

I push Jordan out of the room, as we exited we saw someone we really didn't want to see . Panic filled Jordan's eyes, and anger filled mine .
