daddy let me go home

when i was in grade 4, a year after my parents split, my dad went...crazy. i only visited him now again and only on the weekends. me and my brother went together one week and my dad was going to take me to my netball presentation. my brother...lets call him bob...went to the movies while me and my dad went to the presentation to get my trophy.well we were all meant to meet up at the McDonalds closest to us. then my dad sent my mum a message saying she was never going to see her kids again. bob hadnt showed up yet so we waited. then dad got a message saying that she had bob and she would be coming to get me. my dad didnt like this so he grabbed my arm and pulled me out of McDonalds and onto the bus. i was pushed onto the floor of the bus until the bus was out of sight from my mother. i was so scared and i really wanted my brother. by the time we were at my dads house i was hysterical. i wanted to cry and i felt so alone. my dad locked the door so it could only be opened with a key from the inside. he took the keys so my mother called the police. the police rang and demanded that i was put on the phone. they asked questions that i didnt know what they meant. i knew...they werent going to help me. my dad started crying saying he was sorry but he couldnt let me go home. he called my mother filthy names that i never want to hear agin. about an hour later my mother and uncle came to his apartment and started beating on the door. i was on the other side beatin the door. to. i wanted my mum. after lots of screaming my dad said if they went down to the car and got in it he would bring me down. so hurridly i packed my things and bobs things. we went downstairs and there was one problem...they werent in the car. my dad started pulling me up the stairs but i wouldnt have it. i pulled with all my might and ran free. i ran all the way to the car, got in it and locked myself in. my uncle went up and hit my father, grabbed bobs stuff and we went home. that was the day i was kidnapped by my father...that was the day i stopped loving him.1
