saved my smile (A Harvey Mills Fanfic)

Every Days The Same

I was awoken the next day by the same old shouting and screaming downstairs, and checked my phone for the time, only to find that it was only 6:30am, and i turned over and closed my eyes, attempting to go back to sleep, like any normal family would do at 6:30am on a Sunday, but we weren't any normal family, and it was impossible to go back to sleep with how loud it was, so I sat up, and got dressed, then got my head phones off of my desk and watched YouTube with them on to block the sound out the best I could.

After I had watched half a video, I was interrupted by hearing a loud knock on the door downstairs, and looked out of my window curiously to see two police officers stood at the front door......

Shit......

I stood there, worrying, part of me was thinking, oh no, what's gonna happen now, and the other half of my body was thinking, finally, after all these years, but i just stood there, staring, until I heard my mums voice shouting up the stairs, "issy, here darling," and her voice was shaky, so I could tell she was scared. I walked down the stairs to see my mum sitting on the sofa, her whole body was infact shaking, and my dad was stood at the other side of the room, looking mostly angry, like he always did. The two officers were sat at either side of my mum trying to comfort her, and there was another woman in the room aswell as them, standing by the front door, and she was dressed in full black.

"now," one of the police officers started unexpectedly, getting all of our attention, "is this everyone in the household,"

My mum and I nodded slightly, as my dad just stood still.

"brilliant," she continued,"now we are here to help and we have come up with a solution. Judith and Ric," she said, adressing my parents, "you will be given 4 weeks to try and sort your relationship out without Issabella," and my heart sunk, "Issabella will be taken care of by Sara Mills," she said, and the lady standing near the front door, walked in, and kneeled infront of me holding out her hand...

"I am your social worker, Sara Mills, and the way I work, is not in a care home. I take care of children in my own home, so for the next 4 weeks, you will become part of my family, and we will make you feel at home the best we can. I have a husband, 4 children, 2 cats and 2 dogs that you will meet once we get there, "

I shook her hand and nodded, as she told me to go pack my stuff. Most kids would be distraught about leaving their parents for 4 weeks, but i couldn't wait. I packed my stuff and rushed down the stairs and listened to what the police officer was saying.

"if you cant sort it out in the next 4 weeks," she said, addressing my parents, "we will ask Issabella who she wants to live with and the parent she chooses will be where she stays, and we will take the other parent."

This excited me even more, because I knew my parents would never be able to fix it, and obviously I was going to live with my mum and then there would finally be piece without him there, but my thoughts were interrupted by my name being called, and i looked towards the woman who had earlier introduced herself as Sara Mills, "come on honey," she said, and i gave my mum a hug and said goodbye, and then followed her out to the car and got in......
