" Mr. James if I am not wrong according to Hanna your sister, you were with her on twentieth of July at nine-ish pm , but what you are saying now is that you were with her at seven pm that night and later went back home at eight pm. One question is, where were you? "
"I have already said where I was at times she forgets some things "he answers arrogantly again. This man!!
The court proceeds for another twenty minutes before a recess is declared. Ooh boy I'm so tired. I've been concentrating on this case for the past two months and it's all hell. Mr. Peter James is being accused of sexual harassment by Mrs. Peris Johnson a sixty years old lady.
"Nice argument Miss P, " Mary one of my friends from the jury says. " between me and you, "she whispers "this man looks like a rapist "
"That's so rude Mary! "I scold her laughing while walking out of the court room.
"We both know am saying a fact. Word has it that you are the one taking the Coopers case "
"Yeah I am, it's so confusing knowing the mother is my cousin "and the father my lover.... I say the last part in my head.
"Daaah, it's all on you. I know you have a crush on him. " she says and begins walking away. I laugh and walk to my office only to find non other than Isaac standing near my office door.
"What are you doing here? "
" Is it a crime to want to visit my sister in law? "he sarcastically says.
"I have no time for jokes, get out of my way. "
He follows me and makes himself comfortable in my office coach.
"I need to talk to you "
" And what are you doing now? Crying to me ?"
"Stop with the sarcasm. Dad wants to talk to you. " Well to many, that statement sounds good, but to me it's my worst nightmare which I never want to remember.
"Why? "I ask unemotionally.
"He needs help ."
I laugh and look at him in the eyes "Who has he wronged now ? Or has he raped a teenager again, or has he killed again? "I ask all the anger I feel towards my former father in law evident.
"It's worse than that."he calmly says. We all know who Isaac gets his behavior from.
"Just go ahead and say it !"
"He has messed with the Coopers. He was caught trying to kill Mrs. Cooper. "
"what the fuck! " I scream making him jump. Out of all the people , why did he just have to mess with them. Now I have Miles on my back and now this man does what??????
" I'm not helping him this time. He has gone too far. That's it, remember when he tried to rape Kenzie? What did I do? I forgave him. I hate that man with everything he has. After what he did to me, he still is causing me trouble. I can't help him?!"
" Please listen,,, "
"You! " the deadliest sound comes from the doorway. The man I have been avoiding all week. Miles!!!!!!
