All rise Department one of lower court is now in session. Judge Tia presiding. Please be seated.
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Calling the case of Gregory Smith versus Shayla Smith. Are both sides ready?
"Yes"
"Your honor my husband wants a divorce because he claims he isn't happy with me anymore. "
"And why do you want a divorce Mr. Gregory can you tell me a little bit about your marriage as to the reason why we are here today?
"Well your honor, Shayla and I have been married 8 years and everything was going swell until after we had our 3 children. She became lazy"
"That's not true your honor" she interrupted.
"Hang on" I said
"Like I said she became lazy with her appearance , she doesn't like to cook anymore , she doesn't want to have sex anymore and I'm just like what's the point " he explained.
Sometimes I wonder why I chose to be a judge maybe I just like to hear people's stories. "What's going on Ms. Shayla? May I please have your side"
"I will admit that I have been very lazy it's just while he's at work. I have to slave around the house with the kids and its draining maybe I'm not happy either"
"Okay, well you do know when you're married you commit yourself to each other. And since he's the only one bringing in income economically it should be your job to cook, clean , and take care of the kids" I explained.
"Exactly your honor"
Jacob
"Place your hands up where I can see them sir" he yelled.
"No man, you can't tell me shit. Ya'll think just because ya'll officers ya'll have powers. That's why no one likes you all now" The young 16 year old spat. He was caught stealing from the newsstand and this dumb kid thought we wouldn't notice.
Simmons patted him down pulling out a bag of skittles and gum from his pocket.
"Here it is" he said giving the stolen candy back to the owner. I placed the handcuffs around his wrist walking him to the car. I absolutely hated dealing with kids only because I know half of the time they don't mean harm. Either they're hungry or their parents just don't have it. But my chief has been on my case for letting too many people slide. I opened the door helping him get in.
"What's your name? Daniel asked. He sucked his teeth. "Man..... Khalik"
