Mariana P.O.V
"Mom, can I go to the store? I finished my homework and cleaned my room." I ask.
"Yes. Just be back before supper please." Stef replies.
I rush to the door to put on my jacket and shoes. I open the front door and head to my vehicle. I get in the car to go to the store to buy some new clothes. I have not been clothe shopping in a couple of months. I am definitely overdue for some new ones.
I walk into the store all excited to shop. It was my most favorite thing to do besides hanging out with my boyfriend Matt. I start shopping looking through everything, before I knew it two hours had past. I go up to the cashier so I can pay for my items. I only ended up picking out a couple shirts and one pair of pants. Once I have paid for the items I go to walk out of the store. However as I walk past the security system my bags go off. I can not figure out why. I paid for everything. I think to myself I'm just gonna keep on walking. I know I didn't steal anything. Just then a police officer walked up to me.
"Hey miss. Can you please show me your bags?"
"Umm, why? I didn't take anything." I question.
"It's policy. Please show me your bags." He says, getting more frustrated.
"Nah I'm good. I know I didn't take anything so I shouldn't have to."
"Watch it young lady. You're gonna be in a lot more trouble if you don't do as I say."
I was infuriated. I just wanted to leave so I could be home for supper like I promised my mom's. I started yelling.
"YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SUPPOSED TO BE HOME RIGHT NOW AND YOU'RE HOLDING ME BACK." I screech.
"LAST CHANCE. YOU STOP THIS RIGHT NOW OR YOU'RE GOING TO GET ARRESTED." He yells.
I don't know what came over me but I lost all control. I started kicking the clothing racks over and punching walls. Throwing things. The police officer was trying to pin me to the ground but I was so resistant he called for backup. When backup came I could no longer resist.
They handcuffed me and put me in the back of the cop car. On the way to the police station I think to myself what have I got myself into. My mom's are going to be so mad. Fuck my life! We arrive at our destination. The cop comes up to me...
"We are calling your parent's. You can leave when they come to get you. Until then you are going to sit here and not move. Do you understand me?"
"Yes, sir" I sit and wait knowing not to get myself into more trouble.
Stef P.O.V
I'm sitting at the dinner table angered that Mariana is not here for supper. I told her she needed to be home at this time. I have tried calling her and she won't answer which is against the rules. When I here from her she is going to be in a whole lot of trouble.
I'm sitting at the table when all of a sudden my phone rings. It better be Mariana I think to myself. As I look at the caller I.D it says Unknown Number. I answer the phone puzzled at who this could be.
"Hello?"
"Hi. Is this Stefanie Foster, Mariana's mom?"
"Yes, it is. May I ask who's calling?"
"Yah, My name is Charles I work at the police station. Your daughter Mariana vandalized a store today and resisted arrest. We we're going to keep her but we decided not to since this was her first offence. We can only release her if you come pick her up."
"Ok, Thanks for calling me I'm on my way."
I slam my phone down and grab the keys forgetting to even tell Lena where I'm going. As I arrive at the station I see Mariana sitting there. I give her a deadly glare.
"Mom. I'm so sorrry. I can explain."
"Don't even. You're in so much trouble."
I talk to to the officer to get everything sorted out. When I'm done I take Mariana by the arm. I don't say a word to her the whole way home. When we get home I open the front door.
"Go straight up to your room and wait for me." I say, sternly.
Lena comes over. "What's going on? You left the house without even telling me anything. I was worried."
I tell Lena everything that happened.
"Are you going to punish her, or should I?" Lena asks.
"I think I should since I'm the one that went and got her." I reply
"Ok, but don't go easy on her. She needs to learn that it is not acceptable to do things like this and think she can get away with it."
"Don't worry honey. I won't" I reply, confidently.
I march straight upstairs to her room to see her sitting on the bed waiting for me. She looked scared. I'm so mad I don't even say anything I just grab her arm and put her straight over my knee.

"Owwwwwww mom." She cries.
I stand her up. "We're not even close to done. Pull your pants and underwear down."
"No. Please mom." She whines.
I turn her around and gave her 5 hard smacks. "You do what I tell you to do. Is that understood?"
"Yes Ma'am"
I begin again...

I stand her up. "I'm all done. Have you learned your lesson." I ask as I am wiping away her tears.
"Yes, Mom. I'm so sorry. I will never get in trouble with the police again. I promise."
"Good I'm glad. Now I want you to stay in your room for the rest of the night and think about what you've done."
"Yes'em. I'm sorry."
"I know baby. Goodnight." I reply.
"Goodnight."
