"All rise for Judge Vivica Fox." We all stood up as we watched the judge walk in.
"Court is in cession." She slammed her gavel and called upon the defense to speak.
Belle told me that she didn't want to punish her dad so she would try to make it seem that it was self defense. But after the meeting she had with him yesterday all that went out the window. Today she would tell the court how he was an abusive husband and often came home drunk.
I was surprised with the amount of witness the plaintiff found. From neighbors to family friends to co-workers the plaintiff had 18 witnesses. Everyone could see that they had problems but no one would speak up. Maybe if they did she would still be here. I had no idea of the instinct of the problems they had. I figured that their relationship was just unhealthy for Belle to be around. She just told me they argued a lot but I should've figured it was more to it.
After every witness went up it was sure that he would be headed to prison. Everyone was so sure that it took the jury 10 minutes to decide that he was guilty. I've never been so relieved. The judge on the custody case said that if he went to jail his rights over Belle could never be granted. His charges were 1st and 2nd degree murder, assault , possession of an unregistered deadly weapon. This chapter is ending and on a good note. Even though we should be happy now deep down inside I know the worst is yet to come.
Beyoncé POV
As usual lately Jay and I were chilling in the living room playing around.
"Seriously though one day we should visit the safari and see your ancestors." Jay was cracking up at his own jokes while I just mugged him.
"And you can even fly us there." I shoved him but that time I had to laugh it was kind of funny and his laugh was contagious.
The laughing fit continued for another few minutes until a sharp pain went through my body. "Ouch." I groaned. Jay looked over at me as I bent over in pain.
"You okay Bey?" By now my eyes were watering, the pain would not subside.
"J-jay... I think somethings wrong. This doesn't feel norma-ahhh." A stronger wave of pain hit me in the middle of my sentence not even allowing the first bit of pain to leave. Jay didn't even respond this time, he slid his shoes on and picked me up bridal style locking the house and putting me in the car. And like before he drove me to the hospital.
By now I was in tears this pain made it hard to breathe and felt like daggers continuously stabbing me. We made it to the hospital and Jay went to sign me in and call my mom. I was bleeding now. So much that it was traveling down my legs. I gathered up the strength to call the nurse at the sign-in desk she brung me a wheel chair once I finally sat down everything went black.

Beep...beep...beep...beep...
I groaned sitting up looking around seeing I was now in the hospital bed. The room door opened and in came my mom and Jay.
"Thank goodness your awake. How you feeling baby." She rubbed my forehead. I responded with an okay as she rang the button for my nurse.
"Hello I'm your nurse for tonight, Ryan." She was brown skin with blue hair and a bright smile.
"For now I'm just gonna give you some more fluids and check your vitals. Your doctor should be here soon. If you're still in pain I could get you something for it."
"Yes please." I responded. She smiled and walked out. Not even a minute later the doctor walked in.
"Good evening, I'm Doctor Bradford. I have some news that may be hard to hear about what happened to you would you like to hear it alone?" I shook my head no. I knew now I wouldn't be able to hide the fact that I'm pregnant. But since I didn't want to tell her I knew the doctor would mention it.
"Alright then. Ms.Beyoncé you have had a miscarriage. We removed the baby when you passed out. You lost quite a bit of blood before we brought you back but it seems that you are fine now. We're going to keep you overnight just for safe measures. I also want you to relax these next few days. I'm sorry for your loss."
Happy isn't what I felt yet I wasn't sad ether. I wasn't excited to have a baby but I did have some love for it. I was hurt that my child was gone and it felt like my fault because I really didn't want it. Knowing my baby wasn't made out of love made my situation complicated. My attachment to Jermaine is gone.
The doctor walked out of the room and Jay soon followed to make a call.
"So you failed to let me know you were pregnant?" Mom stared of at the wall not even blinking.
"I didn't know how-"
"Well maybe you should've just said it!" She turned to look at me. "You having unprotected sex, you bold enough to do that so you could've told me." A tear slipped out my eye. "I work so hard so you wouldn't have to go through what I did when I had you. Yet you go against everything you stand for. Why Bey? Why!?!"
"I-I didn't mean to... I-" she cut me off again.
"Don't give me that I didn't mean to bullshit. If you didn't mean to." She her voice went even deeper and I began to ball my eyes out.
"I didn't want to. I kept asking him to stop he just- I didn't know what to do-he said he loved me. Why mama? Why does love hurt so bad?" Both she and I's tears ran all over my face. She came to hug me rubbing my back, shushing me until I fell asleep.
