He was about to let himself fall asleep when a man entered the station and started yelling.<span style="font-style: italic">I've done a good job keeping my violent dad a secret and now these kids are going to see it.</span>Sam picked his head up and watched his dad continue to speak to the cop in a raised tone. When he came up to the cell, he glared at the angry man. A smirk appeared on his face when the cop forced his dad to stay away from the cell door.<span style="font-style: italic">"Then lock his ass up! No program is going to help his ass he don't even listen to his own father!"</span>He heard his dad say. Sam felt anger grow inside him. He hated that man more than anything.<br/><br/>To Sam's relief, he heard his father tell Sam's mother to deal with the paperwork. He lightly sighed and waited for it to be over. When his mom came in, he felt a wave of relief wash over him. His expression changed from hateful to sweet as his mother hugged him. "I'm sorry, mom." he said, sounding ashamed.
