It was the next morning and I still haven't slept. My mom came and unlocked
the door.
"Go take a shower and get ready to go." She ordered.
I got up and picked out clothes for me to wear and then I got in the shower and got ready. My mom and I got into her car and took off. The new officer followed behind us. We arrived at the courthouse and when we got there I was taken to a separate room. I was in there a while when the door opened and a lady walked in. She was wearing a black robe. It must be the judge. She sat in the chair across from me.
"Hello Stacy. I'm Judge Mead. I'm here just to talk to you okay?" She said.
I nodded.
"How are you doing?" She asked.
"Bad."
"Why are you bad?"
"I haven't slept or ate anything."
"Why haven't you?" She asked
"Cuz my mom took me from my dad."
"You love your dad?"
"He's my hero. I love him a lot. He is always there when I need him and he gave me 2 brothers who I love to death."
"What about your mom?" She inquired.
"I hate her."
"Why do you hate her?"
"She married a man who abused me. When I told her about it she said I was lying and I was a bad kid." I said with tears running down my face.
"What did your step father do to you?" she asked while she handed me a Kleenex.
"He hit me with his hands and with a belt and he......he tried to rape me." I cried.
"I see," she said as she wrote down some notes.
"Was there a time when you loved your mom?" She continued.
"There was a time. When it was just her and me. When Bobby didn't get into the picture. She wanted love so bad from a man, she just tossed me away. I became the invisible child and then when I had Bobby arrested, she then noticed me and is trying to get me back to punish me for what I did to Bobby."
She nodded and took some notes.
"Tell me about your brothers"
My tears dried up, my head perked up, my eyes widened, and a smile caressed my face.
"My brothers are my rocks. I love them to death. Matt and Jeff had dreams of becoming wrestlers and they wrestled for the WWE. Matt is still there wrestling, but Jeff is now working on his music. He is very talented at what he does. They both are."
"They sound like they are wonderful."
"They are. They're just amazing. They've always been there to overprotect me." I giggled.
"Sounds like they are those kinds of brothers that will spoil you and keep an eye on you all the time." The judge smiled
"Yea they are." I smiled.
"Do they get along with your father?"
"Yea. My father and my 2 brothers are very close and my brothers also think my dad is their hero too." I said.
"What do you wanna be when you grow up?"
"I wanna be a writer." I said.
"That is awesome. What do you wanna write?"
"I wanna write fictional books. I want kids to read them and when they do I want them to be taken to a magical place where happiness is. I want them to use their imaginations." I said.
"Well I enjoyed talking to you Stacy. You are a very special person and you seem like you know what you want in life."
"Thank you." I said.
"I'm going to go back into the court room and talk to your mom and dad and tell them what my decision is and then I will tell Officer Burt to come in and give you an envelope with my decision and then he will bring you in the court room where you will be able to go home with whoever my choice is. Okay?"
I nodded and watched her walk out. She walked back to the courtroom and sat at her bench. She just looked out at my dad, brothers, mom, Lawyers, and other people who are just there to watch a court being held.
"I just got done talking to Stacy. She is a very special young lady and she knows what she wants in life. After talking to her, I found out a lot of stuff to help me come with a decision. I asked her to tell me about you Mr. Hardy. From what she told me you are a wonderful parent. To her you are her hero. She loves you a lot and is happy when she is with you. She also spoke of her brothers. She calls them her rocks. When I asked her about her brothers she just brightened up. She really loves her brothers a lot. I also asked her about you Mrs. Johnson. To tell you the truth. Mrs. Johnson I am appalled at you. You're daughter came to you and told you about what your husband was doing to her and you dismissed her and told her it was her fault. You don't deserve to have that wonderful young lady in your life. There for I find Gilbert Hardy shall have full custody of Stacy Hardy. Burt go get Stacy and bring her in here to be with her father."
Burt left and came in the room. He handed me the envelope and I read it. I started crying and smiling. Burt took me and brought me into the courtroom. When I saw my dad I ran toward him and hugged him tightly. He kissed my forehead and held me tightly.
"Court is adjourned." The judge smiled.
Matt and Jeff came and hugged me tightly and kissed my cheek and my forehead.
"Oh sis. I was so worried about you." Jeff said.
"I'm so glad you can go home with us." Matt said.
"And this time to stay" I smiled.
"I love you princess." My dad said.
"I love you too." I said.
We walked out to the car and entered it. Dad and Jeff sat in the front and Matt and I were in the back. I laid my head on Matt's lap and fell right asleep. Matt looked down at me and stroked my hair. Well Matt carried me inside and laid me in my bed. Matt, Dad, and Jeff were talking downstairs in the kitchen when I woke up 6 hours later. I went and sat in Jeff's lap and he held me tightly.
"Did that nap make you feel better?" My dad said.
"It sure did." I said.
"Good to hear sweetie." My dad said.
"I'm hungry." I pouted.
They chuckled and my dad got up and fixed me a sandwich. I took a bite.
"Let me have a bite." Jeff said.
I put part of the sandwich in his mouth and he took a bite. I giggled and finished eating. After eating, Jeff, Matt, my dad, and I went and watched TV. I looked at them and knew my future was going to be bright because I was surrounded by people I love and who love me.
The End
