Chapter 7

‘Katie Smith?’ The Policeman asked. ‘Yes that’s me!’ Katie said. ‘I have come to tell you some news. Some good, some bad.’ ‘Urmm one second’ Katie replied. ‘Connor can you take Amelia out of here please I don’t want her to hear this.’ Katie said. He nodded and took her away. ‘Okay continue’ Katie grabbed my hand. ‘Well Katie, we have convicted Ben with Rape, stealing and for possession of a gun for no serious reason, like Josh’s reason is because he is a celebrity. You won’t be seeing Ben for a long time.’ His name makes me so angry ‘Okay and the bad news?’ Katie asked. ‘Well Ben wants to appeal to court to make his sentence of 15 years shorter. The thing is you need to be present.’ I had to do something. ‘Urmm Officer, if Katie does go to the court would she be able to be in a different room?’ I asked. The policeman nodded. ‘Yes of course.’ There was a pause. ‘That’s not the only bad news.’ He said. ‘Your father has not left you in a very good position.’ ‘What? I don’t get it?’ Katie said. ‘The money your father has, well had but has now been given to you is stolen. The company he worked for stole the money and made out it was their own. The companies have decided to press charges against you.’ Charlie, Katie’s dad didn’t seem like a man that would do something like this ‘ But I haven’t done anything? It’s my father’s fault not mine! Why do I have to get the blame! I have had enough things happening at the moment and I don’t need more.’ Katie began to cry. I put my arm around Katie. ‘Katie, that’s not all. Your father was in a lot of debt, About £100,500 of it to be exact.’ Katie was crying so much.‘NO !! WHY IS EVERYTHING IIN MY LIFE GOING WRONG!! I CAN’T DO THIS!!!’ I screamed. ‘I FINALLY REMEMEBER JOSH AFTER 2 YEARS!! BOTH MY PARENTS DIE!! I GET SHOT!! I GET RAPED!! I HAVE TO GO TO COURT!! WHY THE HELL IS IT ME!!’ Katie screamed. ‘Katie please calm down.’ The police officer said. ‘CALM DOWN!! ARE YOU BEING SERIOUS!! YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN!!! YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING TO HELP!! NOTHING TO TRY AND HELP ME!!!’ Katie yelled. ‘Katie, there is a team of experts trying to convince the companies to take away the charges but at the moment there is no response to it. The government, may ignore the debt, considering the person the debt is held to is now deceased and cancel it. I am not sure. Your Lawyer is speaking with the government and a team of experts you lawyer has hired is speaking to the companies.’ Katie nodded.  ‘Sir, will you know soon?’ I asked. ‘Hopefully this week, I know you are getting discharged tomorrow Katie, so I will have to come to your house with your lawyer and discuss it, is that okay?’ He asked. Katie nodded. ‘Thank you officer.’ I said as the policeman left the room. I kissed Katie. ‘It will all be fine I promise.’ Katie smiled. ‘Josh, Take Amelia and Connor back to mine, have a shower, a sleep, change clothes, eat and then come back. You have been here nearly a whole day. Please go. I won’t take no for an answer.’ I didn’t want to leave her, but if that’s what she wanted me to do then fine. I nodded. ‘FINE.’ I said as I got up. Katie told me her house address and told me where the keys were. I grabbed her house keys on her clothes, kissed Katie and left the room. I walked past Connor and Amelia. ‘Come on guys we are going home for a bit and then coming back okay?’ The nodded and got up. We got in the taxi and left the hospital.
