BROKEN

Chapter 9~The good and bad

*violet POV

The break of dawn showed just as me and Kenneth was waking up. kyler laid in the bed with me and Kenneth laid in the recliner across the room.

I could barley sleep all through out the night.I kept on having nightmares of different terrible scenarios. the scariest one was slim came back and took and my daughter and killed her because he was so upset with me.

Another one was CPS not reconsidering putting kyler into the system meaning they was going bring her into foster care without even thinking about it or how I feel.

I made a ton if mistakes and truth be told all I want is my baby girl back.

Kyler rolled over and hopped out the bed as she went up to the tall glass window and stared at the sunny view

I smiled as her big curly hair that use to be straight, made a big shadow throughout the room

She pressed her face up against the glass

I looked over at Kenneth who was stretching and yawning.

"Goodmorning" he said in a deep tone

"Morning" I said in my groggy voice

He walked over to me and sat at the foot of the bed

"How'd you sleep?" he asked

"Horrible. everything was nightmares." I responded

"Hmph, well violet today is a new day and were going to uplift with positivity." He said assured

I gave weak smile and nodded

"Well I'm gonna take kyler down to the cafe to get some breakfast, want anything?" he asked

"Hash brown and eggs will do" I tell him

"Ok" he smiled and walked over and grabbed kyler hand but instead she insisted on a piggy back ride.

With no hesitation he threw her over his shoulders and left.

I turned my direction to the mirror on the wall that was right in front of me. there were marks all over my neck from slim. bite marks,scratch marks,bruises, etc.

Looking at me by just that, you can tell I was in an abusive relationship.

Moments later kyler and Kenneth came back with munchies and of course I was starving

We grubbed and enjoyed one another companies

Kyler watched cartoons while me and Kenneth had side conversations.

"Excuse me mrs.jones, but child protective service is here to talk to you" the nurse comes in and says

I sighed and looked at Kenneth who gave me a positive look.

In walked a tall black kinda chubby woman dressed in a yellow blouse and black high waisted pants. her hair was short cut, kinda like the Megan good hairstyle

"Hi, I'm Mrs.peters, and I'm here to explain to you the case of what's going on and what we wanna do with it" she sat down right next to me and Kenneth

"But first I want to inform you mrs.jones that we have good news and bad news, which one would you like to here first?" she asks

I swallowed a deep knot in my throat

"Tell me the good news" I say

"Well, the good news is, your in full custody of your daughter" she says

I was I complete shock and joy. that's all I prayed for.

Tears built up in my eyes.

I've been wanting this for years
