~*Chapter 6*~Peters in Trouble!*~
Ruthie was devastated by the news of Peter being abused. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know if she should go to the police, Peter's mom, her dad, or anybody.
I know! Ill go to Simon! I've always gone to him for help on anything. He should be able to help me in some way.
Ruthie ran in the house tears streaming down her face. She ran up the stairs and knocked on Simon's door.
"Come in!" Simon said.
"Ruthie? What's wrong? Why are you crying? Are you ok?" Simon asked.
"Simon…..I'm ok…..but…." Ruthie started to burst out crying.
"Ruthie…." Simon got up and hugged his sister. "Tell me what's wrong."
"Its……Its….Peter……he's in trouble" Ruthie sniffled
"Trouble? What kind of trouble……What's wrong with Peter, Ruthie" Simon asked wanting to know.
"He's…..He's…..being abused." Ruthie started crying uncontrollably.
"What! How do you know?"
"I heard a man yelling at Peter and then I heard a slap. Then the man went into his car and drove away and now I don't know what to do and I didn't—" Simon cut Ruthie off.
"Ruthie…..calm down. It'll be ok. We'll catch this man and Peter will never be hurt again." Simon hugged his sister and rubbed her back.
"I hope so Simon because I don't want it to get worse that….." Ruthie stopped.
"That what??"
"That I'll………never see him again."
"Oh Ruthie……..I promise you it will never get to that point."
Simon hugged Ruthie again and she ended up falling asleep on his shoulder. Simon picked her up in his arms and carried her to her room and put her in her bed. He kissed her forehead and then shut the door.
