"Dry your eyes and go to bed; Tomorrow you'll see the color again"
―V.M―
It was almost afternoon, the time when the sun was high above in the sky, right in the middle and it was hot, so hot Betty was sitting right in front of the ventilator and the cold air was blowing all around her, and her sun-colored hair was throwing all around her. She was so beautiful. with her tight green top and black jeans, she had her head turned right in front of the TV and was watching some random TV-show just to kill time since her grandparents were gone somewhere she didn't know and didn't need to and Red-head and Freddie were in some another party.
She wanted to believe that she was not jealous, but some little feeling still flicked inside her, she was little disappointed when they call and asked her to go with them, knowing she was waiting for a call from the police station.
Betty shook her head, of course, they should have fun, it's not like just because she is here waiting for police call everyone should stop having fun and sit in this boring room and start watching some stuff.
The phone buzz made Betty jump for her seat, she ran towards the phone, which was resting on the tale and pick it.
"Hello?" She said, her voice nervous and shaky.
"Is this Betty Tyler?" The voice another side of the line asked, it was female voice, soft but deep.
"Yes" Betty nodded, knowing the woman could not see that, but it was just a habit.
"This is officer Andrews from the police station in NER, we want to inform you that Noah Campbell was arrested list night accorded by your complaint." The girl inhaled deeply and woman from the other side stopped talking, notice the girl needed a time. after a couple minute of silence, she continued "We want to inform you that the court will be within a week, we will send you more information anytime soon. Do you have any question?"
Betty shook her head, and then rolled her eyes, knowing that the woman could not see that "No--wait, how long will he get?"
"If everything goes by your side Ms. Tyler and you will win the case, the boy will get at least 5 years. But I don't know, anything could happen, be prepared."
"Thank you"
"Oh and make sure to get a lawyer"
"Sure"
Betty hung the phone and looked around the room, she needed a lawyer. She hadn't thought about that earlier, how could she forget that?
She signed, knowing the damn right it was time to tell the family what was going on in her life.
But at least, she knew the boy could not harm her anymore.
