Sorry guys, I was on vacation, but now I'm back, and the story will continue.

I sat across the table from Ben, doing everything I could to keep myself from physically attacking Uma who was sitting in the chair to my far right. Evie was sitting to my left and holding my arm to keep me from doing anything but kept glaring over at Uma. Dizzy was still in the hospital and wasn't getting better. I knew Evie was worried I could sense it, somehow. Ben was explaining the situation then he finally looked to me.
"Mal, unfortunately there is no evidence provided that can prove Uma is guilty of harming Dizzy, so unfortunately all I can do of now is put her on watch and have security on her 24/7." He said and I grew mad, I was the best for this job because I was close to Dizzy but not so close I was to emotional to fight.
"Ben she almost KILLED an innocent child and your just letting her off with a warning?!" I said glaring at Uma who had a sinister look on her face.
"Mal I said she is innocent until proven guilty that is my final word!" He said slamming his fists down. I stood up and stormed out, quickly followed by Evie.
Evie
"Mal please slow down." I said chasing after her. She stopped suddenly and her fists clenched tighter, before she could do anything, I ran up to her and kissed her, eventually I felt her loosen up and wrap her arms around my waist. She rested her head on my shoulder and I rubbed her back.
"We'll figure this out okay.." I said quietly and she nodded slowly. I took her hand and led her back to our dorm. When we got back she practically collapsed onto her bed, exhausted.
"Mal I'm going to go see Dizzy, will you be alright alone?" I asked and she looked at me softly.
"I'll be fine." She said and I hesitated going out the door.
