Sheila's P O V

     The Jordan's siblings didn't care a bit ,they were   all disgusted and hated Kennedy gut.
  Kennedy has three brothers and a sister who is married and living abroad with her family,  The oldest brother Philip is at war with my husband he  didn't even attend our wedding, and  didn't give a hoot about his bro ,the others wasn't any different. His family is divided ,love doesn't even flow ,They lost their parents when the last child Priscilla was just a teenager.
         No wonder Kennedy is like that, As freaking rich as they are when we needed money for a house they didn't come to help us. Only john and Robert came to my aid now but they were furious.
        They all blamed kennedy for his misfortune , "his anger has gotten the best of him " john said angrily "he always act reckless, we this is not his first  time to kill someone ".
"John stop" ! Robert stop interrupted him.
No !let him finish I want to hear all he have to say after all this is also my family.
" Our family was once a lively one we all talked and laughed together,  and everyone acted oblivious to the fact that  our father was a wife beater and a cheating husband, we persevered but Sheila did you know what Kennedy did". He paused and I nod my head I disagreement and he continued.
  " he went and ruined it all he got into a fight with our dad, I heard their voices in my sleep he intervened in our parents argument that got everyone up that night. our mother pled in tears for them to stop but it fell on deaf ears , their fight ended after our Kennedy hit our dad's head on the study table which led to serious bleeding , he died on the way to the hospital.
        Mother couldn't bear the grief ,she died two weeks after Dad's burial, our home went cold we all kept the truth about Dad's death a secret, little sis was traumatised and Kennedy didn't feel any remorse . Philip blamed Kennedy and they have been at war since.
            "sheila no need to cry now it's all in the past" Robert came closer to me wipe the tears from my eyes , I had been crying silently it was all too much to take. "let's look at the future now "sister. he concluded and pulled me into a hug I needed that so bad.
          " I have spoken with some of my contacts I got the best lawyer in the country," john commented breaking our embrace, hoping that would calm me down.  "he was awarded for pulling a major case involving the minister, I have set up a meeting with him ,the bill is settled, just get ready let's all meet up with him.
  The drive to the lawyer's was very awkward and silent. He told us that my dear husband has a chance of coming out alive since it was a case of manslaughter. The news got me elated I was so happy to hear that.
The lawyer went to meet him were he was held in solitary confinement the next day since they refused immediate families from visiting except advocates.
             The lawyer called us again this time he said he had good news and a bad one ,John and Robert couldn't leave their work place so I went alone exceptant, "Good day Mrs Jordan " he said and I smiled in reply I was too weak to be in any cheesy conversation.
" I have some interesting news for you ,it can get your husband out in a jiffy because he is to be persecuted in a month time, " My heart sank at the thought of him saying persecuted but my strong will and hope still stands " what do I have to do sir" I replied feeling nauseous.
"Here, this is a letter saying that  your husband has been forgiven, you have to get it signed by the deceased family preferably his widow, then submit it at the court, your husband will then be redeemed . Get it signed by any means if you want your husband alive, maybe you can get your brother in laws to pay them off or something".
"This is his address ,it's in the east country side, their family is pretty influential so you shouldn't have any problems reaching them".
  "thank you, sir " I said relieved " I shall leave tomorrow then ,am I indeed grateful, I will take my leave now".
      As difficult as it seems I would get it done I would go to the end of the earth if that's where the family is located I would beg and groan and roll ,i would even serve them just to get their forgiveness and sign the paper . I prayed to the Holy one to direct my parts and make it successful......

    Until next time guys much ❤❤❤,
