Ok, so it is like this. My mom divorces my dad. Yes they had some very bad fighting issues verbally, but I can't really remember it. So my mom moves out to start her life over again while my dad is raising us for a little while (Me and my brother that is). So then my mom is dating thes guys. Some cool,some totally lame. But there was this one that she kept talking about named Eric. I thought he would be some sexy tan guy. But no, no I was completely wrong. He was over weight, facial hair "Go T", and a ripped T-shirt that had a pick up truck and lived down town. My brother and i thought he was pretty cool at first, but one night when my dad came over to drop my brother's medicine off, he saw Eric. He just stood there, frozen in his place. And we invited hiom to come down and eat w/ us. And this was when my parents were trying to get back together. Then my brother and I went inside and KU-BANG! It all went down hill in a he said she said. Then one thing led to another my dad said, " You're lucky I dont knock your damn teeth in." And at the time they were very nasty teeth. Then they met again, at my brothers basketball game, I was sleeping over at a friends house. We had ordered pizza and the guy was running late. Eric (now my step dad) has kind of a temper. So he was just going on and on. And he had some beers, like alot. SoI went to my friends house. The next day My brother is like, " Dad hit Eric! Dad hit Eric!" I was like what?!? Then my mom told me the story. They got there a little late and my dad was like hurry up to him. Then my step dad says, " Landon only listens to me." And his pupils were very wide and you could definately tell he had been drinking. Then he keeps saying all of this stuff about my dad's family and i mean BAD. So another thing led to another, Eric said, " I am going to kill you, fillet you, and drag you down the street." Then my dad had enough. He punch him and he fell down on the first shot. And Eric is like 250-300. So then my mom said my dad was in jail for the day and night. I was bawling. Then like 4 weeks later, Eric says it was a set up. And he has all of this rude stuff to say and blah blah blah. He just puts you down, especially me because i know what is going on. I mean, im not stupid. So, my brother and I go back to my dad's every other week. And he is supposidly talk to his "buddies" about how happy he is that we are leaving. AND he does it right infront of our faces. And the sad thing is my mom know half the story and is still married to him even though he has said and done terrible things. It kills me to see my mother suffer because of the worst decision she has ever made in her lifetime. This is why she cries at night, and cant sleep because of a "nevre problem". If you ever see one of these men, Good luck czuse they're real ass holes.
