Vanity
Not guilty because he's deemed as mentally insane... He knew this whole time this would be the outcome. He knew from the moment he took on that trade that all he had to do was stop taking his medicine and everything else would fall right into place... Just like he knew it would.
I just stared at him. That smug smile of him getting away with all his crimes, getting away with ruining what I used to be and he just has that smile. I looked to my right to see the doors close behind Chastity and the officer who led her out after she spoke what was on everyone's mind. To my left was Caj'o and the look of murder might as well have been stained on his face, his shoulders tense and a stare that was strong enough to go through concrete. Rack City got out of his pew in pursuit of Chastity, hastily making his way out with a face I couldn't read.
The room fell completely silent as well all just looked around at each other, waiting for something else to happen and I dropped my gaze down to my lap. I was tired of crying since I had done too much of that lately, instead of tears welling in my eyes like I thought would happen, my eyes were dry. No path of tears running down my cheeks and dropping onto the top of my thighs, just a numb trance I slipped away to. I picked mu head up a little to see the Judge speaking but I couldn't hear a word he was saying. Looking over at Marquis, he had that same smile of satisfaction stuck on his face, sitting back as if this was his living room and that chair was his recliner.
"We'd like to clarify our verdict." One of the jurors said. "We found the defendant not guilty on the charges of assault in that motel room due to him being off his medications but we're undecided on the accounts of Human Trafficking in the Sex Trade."
"Upon viewing all this that was presented to us, I here by acquit him of the assault charges and seek a retrial of his charges in Human Trafficking. Till then, I sentence the defendant to be placed in a metal institute." The judge said slamming the gavel down.
Looking up at CJ, he looked back at me with the same stunned look I must have had on my face. Quickly looking over to Marquis, his smile dropped to that of concern. He eagerly took to talking with his lawyer, not once glancing my way. CJ had gave a squeeze of my hand and motioned for me to get up, to which I did but I was so curious to know what Marquis was saying to his lawyer. I saw Dad in the second pew but he didn't look at me either, just kept his head down as if in prayer and I was pulled along by CJ, exiting out of the courtroom still feeling just as I did before we walked in here.
Walking out the front doors of the courthouse, Chastity could be seen outside pacing with Rack City right at her heels to calm her down. Grabbing her arm only to have her rip her arm right from his grip with ease. CJ had begun to approach her, pulling me right along with him but I didn't want to be anywhere near her while she was like this, I just wanted to give her space so she could cool off but he adamantly kept pulling me with him.
"Chastity, calm the fuck down and shut up. We're outside the courthouse, don't be actin' up like this." CJ said in a harsh tone that got her to furrow her eyebrows and Rack City was quick to grab her by the waist, making sure she didn't try to lunge at him.
"Seriously, Chas." Rack City urged.
"Calm down?! Nigga fuck you-"
"Rack City take her ass home or something because she's not about to act like a wild ass animal." CJ said eyeing her coldly. "She wanna go dumb stupid with herself by overworking herself like that, fine by me-"
