I was arrested twice in two days. I was not guilty but no one believed me and now I was at the police station again,but this time I was sitting in a pre-trial detention cell.
Of course I had the right to one call, but who should I call? No one remembered my existence.I did not exist.
I was sitting on a chair in the corner.Who knows how many people were taken from here to prison and who knows where I will go from here.Who knows? All of this has one plus: I no longer have to worry about where to go and where to sleep.
An unknown policeman came and opened the door.
-Follow me.
He said. Maybe the baby's parents wanted to see me.That they broke one or two my bones.In their place I would at least break a few bones of my child's kidnapper.
The policeman opened the door and left. I followed him.
-Wait here.
He told me and left. I sat down on a chair. There was noise. Everyone was doing something, talking, calling, smoking.I was still sitting on the same chair where I was sitting yesterday when I was arrested.
-what are you doing here?
I looked at who was asking me and saw his green eyes.
-green eyes
I said. I should not have said it but I said it. I do not know why.
-Whose house did you break this time?
He smiled.
-This time I am a kidnapper.
I answered calmly. He was surprised and confused.
-I do not believe.
He said.
-it's true
We heard the voice of a tall, thin policeman who caught me yesterday. He approached us. He looked at his colleague and said:
- We found her with the missing girl.
Green eyes looked at me
- You do not want to say anything?
I smiled.
-for what?
I asked and looked at the floor.We heard the sound of a child crying.
- She?
Asked the green-eyes.
-Yes.
Replied tall policeman.
-She is a kidnapped child. She cries with everyone and calls her mother. Her father is on his way,he will be here soon.
The child was crying again. We could all hear her voice. I looked at the policemen and said:
-Can you bring the girl to me?
-No way
The thin, tall policeman answered me.The green-eyed policeman took the paper from the table and began to read silently. In a few minutes he looked at me and asked:
- Did you find the child in the park?
-She found me.
- What were you doing there?
- I was sleeping
I answered quickly. Both of them looked at me.
- I slept in the park
I said loudly and got up.
-Because I was tired and because I have nowhere to go.Because of you and my parents.Yesterday you arrested me for being in my own house.I could not go there again, that you did not catch me again. Yes I was in the park to avoid coming here again, but as you can see I am here again.
I don't know why I said so much. I felt angry. I said the word again too many times. Wanted to stop, but I couldn't.All the emotions I had turned into anger and I had to get rid of this anger.Then I stopped and noticed that everyone there was watching me. I sat on the chair, looked at the policeman with green eyes and told him:
- I saw this kid for the first time today.
He looked at me and said nothing.
-I know you do not believe me.I stood up again and took a deep breath.
-Mommy
We heard a voice. I looked to the left and saw an open door about five feet away, from which a little girl was running towards me.
-Mommy
Shouted again. I looked back. I thought her mother was back. But there was no one back. I looked at the girl again, she ran up to me and hugged me.
-Mommy
We heard her voice again.
