the front door slammed behind me as my brother rushed ahead to give my mother a hug.
"MOMMY!"
"hi lukey! how was the playground?"
I could hear their muffled conversation from the kitchen. then I heard a much deeper voice.
"you're late." my father spoke from behind me. I quickly turned around and gasped, not expecting my dad to be there.
"dad, um yeah, Luke didn't want to leave so I let him play for a little longer." I explained slowly starting to back away. I knew this wouldn't end well.
"Danielle how many times do I have to remind you not.." he hiccups and stumbles forward, "not to be late? I'm sick and tired of you disrespecting me."
"but dad, Luke wanted..." he cut me off, "I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT WHAT THAT KID WANTS! HE HAS DOWNS! HE'S A FUCKING RETARD!" my father screams at me.
"I'm sorry it won't happen again." I stare at my dad with a look of pure terror on my face and rush upstairs. Behind me I hear my father tell and something fall to the floor. sitting on a step I look through the banister and see he knocked over the little table in the hall. my mom runs in and starts picking up everything that fell telling my dad to go sit in the living room and calm down.
