All I did was just stand there and watch them leave, with swollen cheeks.

My job here is done, Hunter said and left too.

Oh no, that loneliness again, Why are they all leaving and I can't do anything to stop them? I can't believe I led an innocent man to his death just because of my dad, now I'm a killer.
I heard my phone ringing from Veronica's bedroom, I went upstairs to pick it

Where are you, I heard my mom's cry on the phone.

I'll be there in a minute

Okay, she said.

I arrived at the stallion, I met Mom moving around panicking. See who he's making everyone suffer because of his greed.

My son is here, she told the officer in charge as she saw me.

I want to see the prisoner, I said.

The visiting period is over, come tomorrow and take your mom along.

I want to see him, I shouted

Who the hell are you, he shouted back I told you to come back tomorrow

I showed him my ID and he lowered his head and apologized, I'm sorry sir, we'll go get the prisoner.
Minutes later he appeared in front of me with Dad as Mom went to embrace him, Get away from him I said and turned to officer early, Can you take my mom outside for a while I need to discuss something with him

Okay, sir, he saluted and left with mom

Are you here to bail me out? You know I'm innocent of all charges.

Dad, I want you to answer me honestly, that file you asked me to retrieve from the senator's secret save where they yours.

Yes, that man wanted to expose my shitty business I had to get rid of him

So you purposely let an innocent man die.

Someone has to pay If you're done asking can you get me out of here?

I want to ask you one last question and I need the truth, Did you kill Hunter's father?

Yes, that man wanted to report I had got rid of him.

What about his son

I can't remember,  why are you asking me all these questions about all these dead people., They might have rotted away.

Seems you'll not be getting out of here, I showed him the record I just taped.

You bastard, get me out of here.

Sorry, Dad but you have to pay for your crime That's the list I can do for you.

You son of a bastard get back here, You can't send your father to jail.

Watch me, I said and walked away.
Yvette, I'll help you get the justice your father deserves, I know it's not enough to make it up to you but this is the little I can do for you

How is your dad, is he going to be released Mom asked

No, he's going to jail this time.

No that's not true, she said a fainted.

Mom, I shouted as they called for the ambulance

Tears filled my eyes as I entered the mansion,  that was the only thing the court didn't confiscate when my dad was framed.

You're back, I heard a familiar voice, I turned to see who it was, Lucy I said and hugged her.

I knew you'd come back one day, that's why I took good care of this house she said and hugged me tight with tears in her eyes,  do you know since you left I've been searching for you, do you know how worried I was? she said.
