Once we get to wards house we tie off the boat Sarah looks in the direction she had and unready face I've never been good at reading faces I grab her hand as we walk towards the mansion 

as we walk she turns back around but turns back around walking again well limping "okay okay"I hear her whisper  who can blame her I mean we're walking into the house of a murderer as we walk into the yard me and Sarah


Ward gets out of his car looking down at his phone before he looks up to sees us my hand starts to shake so I take a hit of my asthma pump making me feel not as nervous but I'm still more nervous than anything I should have stayed with Jay

he takes off his sunglasses to see if he's just seeing things he gasp with a chuckle walking towards us "Sarah?"he calls to her but I see a lady in the car but I'm not sure who I just stand behind Sarah as ward runs over to us "stay back.stay back.stay back.stay back!"she repeatedly says holding a her arm out in a protecting way 

"okay. I'm just--"ward say holding his hands up "don't." She says again "I'm just--"she looks at him "I'm back."he says backing away from us 'i swear to God"Sarah says "I'm so happy.im sorry "he tells her holding his hand to his heart "where's rafe?"she ask causing me to look around on alert

"uh,I...I don't know he's not home."he tells us looking towards his car I hear the car door close I look to see who it is to see my mom walking towards us I stumble back "ward what's going on we're supposed to be having a business meeting"she says we all look at her

"Ciara..."she looks at with what I thought would be happiness but I see the anger in her eye "what are you doing here honey...Im so glad you alive"she says walking towards me pulling me into a hug when I try to pull away but she pulls me back"we have so much to catch up on If you make a scene your dead"I froze at the deja Vu I look at Sarah with tears "hey let her go"she tells my mom

"I just want quality time with my daughter ward can I use your car were both pretty busy now right"she asks him "of course"he tells her passing her the keys I hold back a sob as she pulls me towards the car "Sarah!"I yell trying to get out the back seat but she puts the child locks on "jj!"I yell Sarah bangs in the window my mom pulls my hair pulling off

Sarah's POV
"Why would you do that?"I ask him "do what Sarah she missed her daughter just as I missed you"he tells me "no, you don't understand"I tell him the sooner I get this done the sooner I can get Cj "you ok?"he ask me looking at my ankle and  when he sees me quiet

"of course I'm not okay  you just let CJ get taken away you saw what rafe did"I tell him "he didn't mean to, sweetheart. It was an accident.it was I didn't think I was ever gonna see you again but you are  in your backyard at home"he tells me I roll my eyes

"I'm not coming home"I tell him "sare bear, you're here"he walks towards me "I said stay back"he backs up again "I'm right here.im just--im can't stand to see you hurt and  I just wanna protect you and I can't do that when you with him, and he's got you in these situations. You just can't even know what it's been like I thought you--were dead"he tries to guilt trip me

"me being hurt cj was shot and I'm not being held hostage ok do you remember that night of the storm?"I ask him getting straight to the point"yeah on the radio you promised me that if I came back you would tell the truth you remember?"I ask he looks at me

"I'm gonna testify against you that you lied and that rafe lied that rose lied"he sighs rubbing his eyes"oh, sweetie"he says "just convince rafe to turn himself in" he pauses"I'm not gonna do that but you know what I'll be happy to drop the charges for you friend Ciara"he tells me

I'm glad for cj but what about John b I look at him with tears "but why John b didn't shoot peterkin."I ask "no he didn't shoot peterkin but he is the reason she's dead"with a nod "what?"I ask him "I offered to help him for just the tiniest Little bit of what was already rightfully mine, and he said no. You know why he said no?"he questions

"because he's greedy,like he's father before him he's so crazy for that goddamn gold that he wouldn't share any of it with the one person that could help him so crazy for that gold that he pulls that van infront of our airplane almost killing you and me on that tarmac that's why we were even there. That's why peterkin was there"I look down with tears
