Natalia I watch as Andrew is put in handcuffs for attacking David. I know I have to step out of his truck, but I am so scared. There are so many people here. Everyone is going to find out what happened. Everyone is going to know the truth. My worst fear has just become my reality. This is the worst thing that could have happened to me, but I need to talk to the police officers, so they can let Andrew go. He was just trying to defend me. They can arrest me. This happened because of me and my mom anyway. Before I get the courage to do so, someone opens the passenger door. "Natalia, are you okay?" I sigh, feeling relieved. "Officer Grady," He smiles. He is my aunt Mary's high school best friend. He was always a trusted adult. He knows some of the things that have gone on in our house.
