No Ordinary Love

Chapter 31

****Not Edited ****

"What the fuck was that about!" Roared Henry, slamming his briefcase on his desk. Roman and Don Xavier waiting patiently outside the waiting room. The whole ride back from court Zayra had been quiet.

"Fuck them." Zayra said defiantly. "They were calling me unstable."

"Zayra you only succeeded in proving them right. Now you just got yourself on probation and you are now to attend mandatory anger management. Plus mandatory therapy. Clear your calendar kid you just got your self a busy season of this shit." He sighed pacing the floor.

Zayra sat staring out the window. She didn't care, they had pissed her off and she had lashed out in court. She obviously looked deranged. The D.A even had the audacity to smile.

He didn't smile when she threw her glass of water at him, well she wasn't exactly aiming it at him, she had aimed it by him. She smiled and felt Henry's angry gaze on her.

"This isn't funny Zayra."

"I didn't say it was." She rolled her eyes at him. "What's done is done. I'm the one that is paying the fucking consequences any way right."

"Zayra your turning this out to be harder than it is. You could have landed in jail for that shit." He continued pacing.

"When do I start?"

"ASAP. You report on Monday to your Probation Officer and I suggest you start looking for classes and a therapist."

She bit her lip.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Henry is it okay to come in?" Don Xavier heard their argument outside.

"Yes. Maybe you can put some sense in her." Henry said gruffly.

Roman walked behind him. He sat next to Zayra and grabbed her hand. She pulled away only to have him tug it back to his, holding it firmly. His eyes narrowed he knew she was upset about court.

Xavier looked at Zayra. "Zayra you need to listen to Henry, you can't keep lashing out on people because you're upset. Especially in court."

"It's too late for the speech don't you think. It's fucking done. Am I done here, I need to clear my calendar right." She stood to leave but Roman sat her back down with a pull to her hand.

"No Zayra." Xavier shook his head. "Zayra do you understand that if you have another blow out they'll send you to a mental hospital?"

She bit her lip angry at this. She heard what they said in court. "Well maybe I fucking need to go, no? I mean you all look at me like I might fucking snap any minute. Maybe it would be best." She felt Roman's body tighten at this. His breathing hitched his eyes turn darker.

"We don't think that Zayra. We know how hard this is?"

"Oh do you now? I wasn't aware any of you were orphaned at 16. Or that your fucking father bashed the shit of your family until they died. I'm sorry but did any of you commit murder?" She said sarcastically. Her body vibrating with anger. Her jade eyes dark, her heart rate jacked.
