7.00 in the morning, Nick woke up and began thinking to himself.
"I shouldn't be afraid of him, I'm a cop now. I should be able to handle stuff like this, so why can't I am I just a coward?"
He was thankful however that it was their day off today.
Soon after Judy woke up. "Hey Nick, you sleep ok?"
Nick put on a smile. "Well I did get some sleep, thanks for letting me stay here carrots."
Judy smiled back. "no problem, hey you want to go out for breakfast?" she asked. "I think we should talk some more about well you know."
"uh, yeah sure I guess" Nick shrugged.
They both got dressed and headed out to the café. They both sat down and began to look at the menu.
A few minutes later, A horse than came over with a notepad and paper. "are you ready to order?" He asked.
"Uh two pancakes with blueberries and a coffee please" Nick said.
"And I'll just have some toast with butter and a coffee please" Judy said
"Ok be right back with those" the waiter said. Soon after the horse came back with their breakfast.
"thank you" they said
Judy turned to face Nick "ok Nick, we both know that this is a problem after all your dad did choke you which is an assault.
Nick cringed and looked away from the bunny. "carrots it's fine really"
Judy frowned "No Nick it's not fine, this is serious we need to report this."
Nick's eyes opened wider "no we don't, we don't it's not that bad he didn't choke me that hard."
"It doesn't matter, he still choked you." Judy said in a louder voice.
"Carrots please, I know you want to help, but I really just don't want to report him"
Judy stared into Nick's green eyes "Ok so tell me what do you plan to do?" She asked folding her arms.
Nick sighed "well I could see if I could get a loan and pay my dad hopefully he'll leave me alone after that"
Judy shook her head "no he won't Nick"
"How do you know? He might do"
"Nick do you remember in school you got that one bully who always wanted things, and to get them he'd use threats. Everyone thought if they give him what they wanted the bully would go away and never come back, but they always came back wanting more. That's just what your dad will do."
"Well I don't know what else I can do carrots. I don't know what my dad will do to me if I don't give him the money, and like I said I don't know when he'll be coming back."
"Nick look at me, you need to stand up to him. Otherwise he'll never ever leave you alone, and I know it's hard for you after all he did cause you so much pain."
"I already did try standing up to him and he just choked me, he's stronger than me there's no way I could beat him in a fight."
"Use your police training, after all your training can be used to defend yourself Nick"
Nick thought about Judy's words and decided she was right it was time, he stood up to his father.
"Ok carrots, I'll try, I really will" Nick smiled
"Good and I'll help in anyway I can."
"Thank carrots"
"let's go home Nick"
