"and then I walked in here." I said as I finished telling the court room the last 2 weeks of my life.

"So... you... have a not so good life." the woman said completely ignoring my little monologue. "is that correct?"

I nodded not sure where this was going.

"most girls would at least cut themselves if they were in your position."

"not me."

"and why not?"

"because I know cutting is just going to make it worse."

"so you've NEVER attempted suicide or tried to harm yourself?" the woman asked and walked over to a table.

I shook my head.

"then why is your fingerprints on this knife?" she said holding up the plastic bag with the knife that had stabbed me and been at my throat.

Just then I remembered. "Oh... well... there was this one time, I touched that knife. I... thought about killing myself."

"so you lied."

Just then the court began murmuring.

"quiet down!" the judge yelled pounding her mallot.

"you do realise your under oath. Don't you? if you lie, its a crime."

"sorry! I just... didn't realise. I didn't remember."

"you didn't remember? attempting suicide is a pretty big thing, don't you think?" the woman asked.

"you lied while you were under oath! who knows what else you might be lying about! maybe you even faked that fall at the talent show!"

"why would I do that?! I was infront of the entire school!" I snapped realising I had risen my voice.

"exactly, you were in front of the entire school. I bet you knew you'd get attention by singing a dramatic song like that and fainting on stage."

"that song was about how I was feeling at the time!"

"oh, YOU wrote that song? really? I would've thought that someone big like Christina Perry wrote it. but not a 13 year old girl."

"but I DID write it! I have a journal at home that I wrote it down in."

"you mean the one with your blood on it?"

I nodded.

"if you didn't cut, how'd the blood get there?"

"I was writing in it after Jason had left."

"and what did he do?"

"like I said a thousand times, he raped me. He was the one who put the cuts in my arms!"

"then why is it that there's no evidence of that?"

"I don't know, why you asking me? he's wanted in a lot of other states he's been doing this for a while."

"so you really-" just then the woman was cut off.

"quit calling my best friend a liar!" I heard a frustrated voice yell and looked to see riley was standing looking quite angry.

"If you say that Jason didn't do anything  your also saying that I'm loyal to a liar. I am not going to let you badger her like that! the facts are there! yes! there's no evidence of him doing anything! but you have evidence he's done it before with I don't even know how many other girls! you have a witness! farkle here! who reports him doing the exact same things that maya says! you have cameras catching him with knives! pulling maya into an alley, the janators closet and following her home! he's obviously guilty! just put the guy in jail!"

As riley stood there for a moment noticing the sudden silence in the room at her words she then sat down and I caught a glimpse of farkle smirking as the woman turned to the judge. "no further questions."

the woman sat down and the same man from earlier stood.

"maya, where's your mother?"

"I don't know, she left a few weeks ago."

"she just... walked out?"

I nodded.

"where did she say she was going?"

"uh... she said she got some part in some movie."

The man hesitated. "well, she lied. She never got a part in anything."

"so she just... left for no reason?" I asked. that sounded like her.

"no. We listened to the phone call she picked up that night right before she left. It was Mr. pike. He told her that he either gets you or her."

"What do you mean? So she left so i'd be wide open for jason?"

"No." The man said. "She gave herself to pike. He told her, it was her or you. She left trying to protect you."

"wait, what? But... she beat me almost every night when I came home late. She always acted like I was a burden."

"well... she might have some anger issues but... she was worried. She didn't want the same thing that happened to her, to happen to you. your mother is one of Mr. pikes victims from 14 years ago. You and missy are products of her rape."

"wait... WHAT?!" I looked out to the court and saw missy looking at me with wide eyes. Jason raped my mother? missy is my SISTER?! "how do you know all this?"

"cuz 14 years ago, I worked on your mother's case. Everything that your going through, she went though too. From the getting cuts on her arms to no one believing her. She was 16 Maya and because there was no evidence, Jason got away. DNA proves that he's your father."

He continued. "Mr. pike. left the knife he used on her at her house and ways managed to never get prints on it. He made her life a living hell, just like you. One day, she attempted to commit suicide getting her finger prints on it making everyone think she did it all to herself, just like you. She tried to tell people she was raped, no one believed her, just like you. Jason continued tormenting her and she continued to suffer in silence. When she ended up pregnant with missy, she went to her brother, who was a close friend of mine. But by that time, Jason couldnt be found. Her parents threw her on to the street, so when missy was born, she gave her up for adoption. But you were born right after."

I couldn't believe it. I felt myself tearing up. I felt so guilty. I almost hated my mother when she payed her life to try and protect me... I had a SISTER. I had a FAMILY. And in that moment I realised that I was never alone.

BOOM! giant plot twist! I love this! like... seriously! But I couldn't have gotten this idea without you guys!

I got to thank @somethingDifferent02 for giving me the idea that bloomed into this:

"maybe the plot twist could be that Jason is mayas dad...."
