I could just imagine them drinking afterwards telling their comrades about the situation. High fives would surely have gone around as their fellow officers congratulated them on their bravery. In reality, they had been waved them down on the side of the road, their black on black on black truck could not have fooled anyone. They questioned constantly, as we rode the short distance back to my home. Stuck in my ways, I remained reticent. Oh, how my father would be proud. Upon arriving back home, the yelling, the screaming, the hitting, was pushed aside, just like it always. We were a ‘happy little family’ again. I lay awake that night, hoping I could wake up somewhere
