We then kind of ran home after that. I will never forget the hurt look in their faces or the look in Lily's face as she cried on the way home. When we came home everything was totally different.

As soon as we came home my dad grabbed lily and slammed her to the ground. Dad did love us but he had problems. But something happened that never happened before. He came at me with a glass bottle. He hit me once in the arm. Then lily kind of blacked out. She grabbed him and kicked him in his twig and berries. He hunched over groaning and then lily told me to grab my bag and run. So I did and she was right behind me.

I asked her where were we running to. She said to grams house. When we finally got there we were panting very hard. When we came in the house and gram welcomed us with that loving grin that we grew up with. Then she saw our faces. She hurried over to us and asked us what happened.

As we both retold the story we started crying. As soon as we finished she called the police. They showed up about two hours later and said that our dad had been taken to jail. They also said to get comfortable at grams house because we were going to stay at her house for a long time. But we already stay there all the time so it wasn't a big deal. We hoped that the news wouldn't get out but guess what was on the news the same night. Lily ended up punching a reporter.
