I am trying to console a bawling baby while trying not to cry myself, as I see Fred cuff Carl and arrest him and then take him away. Cathy was in his arms and I had to literally pull Cathy from him while Fred pulled him back. I don't think I will ever forget the scream that tore from somewhere deep inside him and the look of pure unadulterated hatred he shot me. And not just him, Cathy too. She hates me for taking her away from her daddy. She just hides her face in my arms and sobs.
"Daddy.. Please don't let them take him! Daddyyyy!" She screams after him.
"Catherine, calm down please, baby, please. We won't be able to help him if we are like this." I tried consoling her to the best of my ability but nothing seems to work and at last, she is exhausted and cried herself to sleep.
