I knew from that day that the court case wasn't going to go my way. I knew by the end, I was going to be thrown in jail for the rest of my life. Knowing this, I prayed that they let me have the baby before they decide to throw me jail, I don't want my child being born in no prison.
The trial lasted for over nine months, and I was afraid on the day of the juries decision I would go into labor. As I was walking to the court room, Ben pulled me to the side. "What's up?" I asked, looking like I had encountered a ghost because of my pale skin "I'm sorry." he uttered and my mood changed. "All those years, I knew what dad was doing to you, I just didn't want to believe it. I didn't think dad had changed that badly." he started with tears rolling down his cheek "When you was about eight, I remember you telling me dad hated you, I knew he did, I just didn't want you to know." he uttered and instead of my anger blowing up in his face, I simply hugged him and walked in the court room.
I sat next to my lawyer and shook my hand saying "I'm sorry." he must of known what I already predicted. As one person in the jury stood up to read the verdict, my eyes became an ocean of tears "We the jury find Uni Bridges-" and was then cut off by Zach "Uni didn't do it! It was Uncle Edwin!" And pointed straight at him, while everyone else was dumb founded, especially me. "Son theses are serious accusation you're accusing this man of. Do you have any proof?" the judge asked my little brother, and he came out of his seat to the judge and pulled out his phone and viewed a video to him. The video showed after I self-defended myself from my father, he had woke up from being unconscious and Uncle Edwin walked with the exact same gun my father had an shot him through the head. My Uncle Edwin killed my father, and was going to let me take the blame, I can't believe this. "Due to the recent evidence provide, I order the case to be dismiss and I order the guards to arrest Edwin Parker for the murder of Marshall Bridges." the judge ordered, and just like that I thanked god with tears running down my face, because he just saved me from going down for something I didn't do. I thank my mlm too, for telling me to always keep faith. Thank You.
