"EVERYONE REMAIN SILENT!" The judge ordered
I went up to the concession and sat down "Michael Stevenson what do you plead?"
"Innocent of course" his lawyer spoke
I looked over at Michael in his orange Jump suit and hand cuffs
"You may go up and state your case ms Jackson"
Carly appeared on the concession and looked at me and smiled a little
"Just remember I did this for you" she mouthed to me
She walked up to the mic and prepared for her charge against Michael
"You may began ms Jackson"
"Well first Michael started off kind of forcible in he and Jada's relationship, he would always call and check up on her and tell her to go to his house when he needed her, then Jada told me about to forced sex she had with him not to mention she was under age-
"OBJECTION!" Michael's lawyer yelled
"accepted"
Carly got down and returned to her seat and my mother went up
"Mrs hartt tell us about the changes your daughter has went through"
"Her grades started dropping, she started skipping school, drinking, smoking all that bad stuff, it was just ridiculous, but once she's gotten her grades up again and back on tack she started to be depressed and one day I asked her what's wrong and she told me about the heart breaks with this gentleman here and it honestly broke my heart to hear her talk like that about anybody. Jada was honestly in love"
"Thank you mrs Hartt have a seat"
"Mr Hartt you may come up and speak your side"
"My daughter has been a wonderful girl throughly her entire life and I aimlessly shaped her into the young lady she is until that is one time she came home intoxicated, she wasn't listening g she was acting out and I didn't know until this boy here has been in my house, I've caught them together and I quite frankly believe this man tired to shape my daughter into what he is, a pest that needs to be taken care of"
I looked at Michael and he gritted his teeth, I fell bad for doing this but I have to I have to do it, he broke my heart, and that's what he deserves right?
"Jada Hartt you may tell your side to the story"
"there's no need for sides your honor we just have a couple questions for ms Hartt"
"Proceed"
"Did you or did you not have sexual relations with Michael Stevenson before the age of 18 years?"
"I did"
"Was there any force going on?"
"Yes"
"Did he make you do anything-
"OBJECTION"
"Accepted"
"Back to mr Stevenson how would you describe your relations"
"I was sweet to Jada, I gave her anything she asked for and I truly loved her but she always wanted to have sex and I would always hesitate because she was too young, but I didn't forc-
"OBJECTION? your honor Michael Stevenson just admitted to Rape"
"It wasn't rape" Michael called out
"All we have is one more question"
"Jada Hartt do you feel as if you were raped?"
I looked at Michael again and remembered all the heart brakes he has puttin me through, everything, but the good out ways the bad, I can't bring myself to lock him In jail and i can't bring myself to let him be free with another woman.
"Yes."
"Michael Stevenson you are found guilty of rape and illegal drug trade, Without Bail or Parole"
The judge knocked down he gravel and it was over, it was all over, everything I've been through with him is over, I wanna take it back but I can't, it's to late and I can't.
