7). A Little white lie
344 Words
By now It was around 630 pm when my sister and I ended up at one of our neighbors' houses as we sat there on one of his lawn chairs, as my sister embraced the pure look of exhaustion and panic mixed with some high rating of fear upon her face. Catching her breath while she stares back over at me and then back to the grassy area all shocked. She knew real well she would be in deep s**t for all this because she may have instigated or prolonged an irrational situation her boyfriend started. That was just how she was though, she would always feed into his manipulative "ACT."
It was only seconds now they weren't so far away. Scared shitless at that point. I could hear the police cars racing down the street and ambulance sirens echoing in the distance getting louder by the second as they sped down sandwich street almost monitoring the distance between them and us. As discussed I looked at my sister and told her to be quiet. She nodded in agreement. When the officer walked up she had asked us::
"What happened here?"
"Which one of you two did this?"
we both just sat there silently, first looking at each other then down at our feet not knowing what she was truly talking about, or to whom was she insinuating, I wanted to ask what was she referring to because we were the ones who called 911 but instead we remained silent for a few minutes Then the officer proceeded to ask again but this time with a slight attitude as she huffed she said
"Don't make me ask again I'll take you both down to the station, now which one of you two did this?"
I looked over at my sister as she began to cry. I told her I loved her and not to worry it will be okay and I stood up and said…
"I DID- I DID IT"
scared and frightened after the fact as she cuffed my hands behind my back.
