Nagpatuloy ang pag trace ni Ronie sa mga cellphone number ng mga stalker ng buong banda habang nasa gilid lamang ako tahimik na nakikinig sa kanilang mga sinasabi kay Ronie. All the confirmations and everything.
So, Khaos and Lucy did end up eventually. Huh! Obviously Mae. They still keep in touch, he has her number on his phone.
Ngumiwi ako at binalingan ng tingin si Khaos. Nagulat ako ng nakita itong naka tingin sa akin. Nag iwas ako agad ng tingin.
While Sir Four concentrated on his work at the table, I discussed the restraining order with the band
"Since we have traced and known your stalker we're here to discuss the restraining order against all of them. I am her to make sure you understand every step of the process."
Baste nodded as well as Atlas nodded. The three only coldly looked at me.
"Will that work to keep them away completely?" Atlas asked.
Tumango ako. "A restraining order is a powerful legal tool designed to protect you. It creates a legal barrier that your stalker cannot cross without facing serious consequences."
"But how does it work exactly?" Baste asked.
"Let's break it down," I said, professionalism mode on. Opening a file. "First, we need to file a petition with the court. This petition will detail all of the harassment and stalking incidents you've experienced. We'll need to provide as much evidence as possible messages, photographs, witness statements, anything that shows a pattern of behavior."
"Yes, we have some pictures of them..." si Baste.
"That's good. Once we file the petition, the court will review it and typically grant a temporary restraining order, or TRO. This is an immediate but short-term measure to protect you until we can have a full court hearing. The TRO usually lasts about 20 to 25 days."
"And then what happens?" Khaos asked coldly.
Pasekreto akong suminghap.
"At the court hearing," I explained, "both you and your stalker will have the opportunity to present your cases. You'll need to testify about the harassment and how it's affected your life. I'll be there to guide you through the process, and we'll present all the evidence you've collected."
Atlas nodded slowly. "And if the judge will believes us, which they said earlier right? They believe us."
Tumango ako.
"Then, what happened next?" Baste.
"If the judge is convinced that the stalking is real and that you need protection, they'll issue a permanent restraining order," binaba ko ang baso ng juice. "This can last for several years, and in some cases, indefinitely. The terms can vary, but generally, it will order them to stay a certain distance away from you, your home, your workplace, and any other places you frequently visit. It will also prohibit them from contacting you in any way."
"And if they break it?" Kristof firm voice asked.
"If they violates the restraining order, it's a criminal offense," I said and grab my bag I believe this will end here. "They can be arrested and charged. The violation of a restraining order is taken very seriously by the courts and law enforcement."
Nilingon ko si Ronie na binabalik na ang gamit sa bag niya.
"Do you have any other questions?" I asked.
Umiling iling sila. I look at Khaos and only saw him staring at me. I guess no?
Tumayo na ako. Sir Four stood up to.
