I'll Get You Back (Bendystraw/Cendy Story)

Ch.17

Bendy POV

I could feel anger, confusion and just my whole world crashing after what I heard. Cuphead and I have known each other for so long, how could he not have mentioned this?!

"Do you have something to say about this?" The judge asked me as I stood there not knowing what to say looking like an absolute idiot.

"I was not aware, your honor." I said and he looked at me. That look. I've gotten that look before, when I first became a lawyer. When I didn't find out all the information I was supposed to in order to help my client. I became a laughing stock, an idiot. Now here I am, given that look again, and now I don't know what will happen to my work.

"Well I have some things to go over, this case will continue next week. Adjourned." He said slamming his gavel as I began to pack up my papers, yanking the ones Cuphead touched away. As I straightened up holding my brief case, Alice came up behind me, I could feel her hot breath on my shoulder as I bit my lower lip to contain my anger in the court room.

"So how long has he been screwing you? Huh? Cause I know he can't afford you." She remarked as I faced her narrowing my eyes as I tried to walk past her.

"Move. Move!" I exclaim pushing past her and out of my way as she put her hands up.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey. I will beat that ass." She mocked me as I heard her follow behind me out the court room. Cuphead kept trying to talk to me the entire time I tried to walk away from him. Once we were outside he grabbed my arm saying my name.

"Get off me!" I remarked pulling my arm away. He proceeded to grab it again.

"Bendy wait-"

"Get your hands off me!" I stopped in my tracks facing him a few steps above him on the stairs as I glared at him feeling myself snap.

"You know what! Shut up! Shut the hell up! I can't even stand to look at you right now! You're a labeled racist you think that was something I shouldn't have known?!"

"I was going to tell you I just didn't know how to-" I cut him off feeling tired of hearing excuses from every person who abuses my trust.

"Let me ask you something! Did you or did you not go to jail for rape?!"

"Bendy look-"

"Did you go to jail for rape?" I exclaimed feeling my voice rise. He continued trying to give excuses so I repeated myself again this time yelling and he looked straight ahead sighing.

"Yes. B-" I laugh ironically as I raised a hand to silence him.

"That's all I need to hear, Boris will give you all the information you need to transfer your stuff to another lawyer. You don't need me anymore Cuphead and I certainly don't need you!" I remark as he tried to interrupt me, but I didn't let him as I turned away quickly so he couldn't see the tears that were now becoming visible as I walked away to my car.
