Silas nodded and turned slightly in the chair to hold his hands out to Kris "I did not mean for any of this to happen..." Silas whispered, a few tears rolling down his cheeks as he continued looking straight at Sidney. "I thought they would have taken us... to the clinic... or somewhere I knew... and..." Silas choked up and shook his head, "I'm sorry..." he said the words loudly enough that Sidney would even be able to hear it.
As Kris finished patching up his wrists and his bloodied knuckles, two uniformed officers - both men about as big as Silas in the muscle department, but both shorter than he was - came over and cleared their throats "We're sorry, but we've got to take you to central booking now." Neither officer made a move to touch Silas - they were obviously warned beforehand that Silas was dangerous and touching him was not at all a good thing to do.
Silas looked up at the two officers, his eyes wide - he then glanced at Kris and then Sidney "But my husband... my daughter... they need me!"
