*A Week later*

Bianca
This Trial and or hearing has Been a little time consuming.

I have been in rage the entire time. Seeing Trevor in his orange jumpsuit irked my nerves. I just wanted to kill him.
I turned to see Algee on my side rubbing my right hand back and forth.

That was his way to say calm down.

Soon it would be my turn to testify.

Even though the restraining order was set, the judge just wanted to hear more of my side. They feel as though that it needed to be confirmed.

Trevor's lawyer still wanted to put up a fight due to his clients football career. But that would be long gone as soon as I testify.

"Bianca Ramos James to the stand."

Algee looked at me with promising eyes.

I walked over and proceeded with the following procedures.

Algee
Seeing Bianca up there just proved to me how strong she was. This whole week we've been putting up a fight in this court house, bringing in different witnesses and hearing many false accusations from Trevor's team.

It was all so intimidating. And this was the last day to determine whether or not he would go to prison or not.

It's overwhelming for Bebe and I could tell through her voice as she spoke about her scary times with him.

"Any last words from you miss James?" The judge asks.
"No.."

I turned to see Trevor laugh and grin at her bawling her eyes out. This man was the devil. It took so much in me to not run over across the room and beat his ass.

As she walked back over towards her seat next to mine, the judge ordered a recess so he and the jury can come to a conclusion of what Trevor would be sentenced with.

As Bianca & I walked out into the lobby she started to cry even more.

"Aye aye bianca calm down what's wrong?"
"I swear to god Algee... if they let him free after all this I'm gonna be so upset. I've gone through so much pain with him throughout our relationship. I can't-" she suddenly pauses.

"It's gonna be okay. Look you provided your evidence, you stated your piece perfectly. So did Beverly and I and everyone who was involved. Even your lawyer. In the end you know that   you did what's right."

I wipe away her tears with my dress shirt.
I soon grabbed both of her hands.
"Bow your head Bebe."

As we both bowed our heads, I whispered a prayer.

The devil was not gonna win today.

The recess was over and everyone was back in the court room. I was anxious.

The whole crew was here to support. Keith, Luke,Yazz,Elijah, my mom and step papa and Beverly. And of course, Algee.
He squeezed my hand. There was so much tension in the room.

The judge was ready to say the words. I kind of blocked my ears out and the good and bad memories kept reoccurring in my head.

*A Year earlier*
"I love you Bianca...forever. I want you to have my kids I want to marry you. Baby we forever!" He says while smiling and hugging me.
