Silent confessions

"Brother Larry, is that still long? I'm going to be late for my exam!" I shouted here because of the long traffic.

"Wait a minute, Ma'am, because the one car in front isn't moving, it's broken."

"Fúck! What the hell is that, do they think they own the road?" I got down and moved to the driver's seat, repeatedly honking the car's horn

"HEY MOVE YOUR FÚCKING CAR" I yelled here, "Brother, get out of there, I'll drive, Are they going to tear me apart if I'm late for my exam, it's annoying!"

I started to drive my black car to cross the other way but suddenly my car was stopped by a strong impact.

"Ma'am, you damaged a car" Said my driver who was in the passenger seat next to me

I'm not flaking anymore, money is the solution to that, does anyone hate money?

I handed an envelope with only money to my driver "Oh..give it to me, I have to go"

From inside my car, I could hear the answer of two men and one of them was my driver "Hey, brother let's go"

He approached me and whispered "Ma'am, I'm dead! I don't want to accept the money, ma'am"

I went out to see who the stubborn man was, he is wearing a black polo, its order cannot be denied.

He looked at me from head to toe and he frowned, what's the problem with this mess, can you think!

"Brother, maybe we can settle it, I already gave the money, maybe we can split it first"

"Is this it?" He held up the envelope with only money, and handed it back to me as a warning

"Brother, let's settle it!"

He looked at me with a smirk on his face. "Settle? Why would I do that? You don't have enough money for the damage you did," he said sarcastically. I felt a mix of frustration and determination. I knew I had to find a way to resolve this situation.

The man crossed his arms and looked at me skeptically. "I don't need money. You need to learn a lesson. You can't get away with what you do without proper punishment," He replied firmly.

I laughed at what he said, "I'm going to be late for my exam, I don't have time for your law! accept the money, and have your car repaired" I gave him the money and tried to leave, but he grabbed my arm I.

As the man held onto my arm, a mix of fear and frustration coursed through me. I tried to pull away, but his grip tightened. "You can't just run away like this. You have to deal with the damage you did," He said, his voice filled with determination.

"Let go, I said!"

I pushed it with all my strength and immediately got into the car "Mr. Larry, give me the money if it's still insufficient and abusive call me, I'll send it!"

I pushed it with all my strength and immediately got into the car "Mr. Larry, give me the money if it's still insufficient and abusive call me, I'll send it!"

When I arrived there were a lot of people, Avery and Jia were there, Avery and I were the only two who were going to take the bar exam.

"Oh..what's up with you girl? There's no exam stress yet."

When I go inside, I feel a mixture of nervousness and fear.

"We can do it, Caliee" Avery told me

We were given six hours to take the exam, my head hurts, what I feel now is a mixture of nervousness and headache.

After six hours, Jia met us, but I was looking for someone else, so I tried to go around to see mommy, but they didn't come.

"Are you alright?" Jia asked.

"Ah? Yes, I'm fine" I felt a little pain in my feelings, this is what they want but they don't support me.

"I'm first, Caliee. Kian is already waiting for me" She said goodbye. I hugged her before leaving.

I felt my phone vibrate in the bag so I answered it, Manong Larry.

"Hello, man?"

"Ma'am, I'm in the precinct right now, I really don't want to accept the money, I need you here." I was almost shocked by what he said, who is that man? why are you punishing me! Well, I was in a hurry and he lost it.

I drove my car to the precinct, I saw Manong sitting and being interviewed I think the person interviewing him was an investigator.

"Uhmm? sir?" I called here and he turned his head.

"Have a sit" He pointed to the seat next to manong, but I didn't sit because I knew I wouldn't be staying long

"Sir, I'm ready to pay no matter what" I said without hesitation

"Ma'am, I'm sorry but Prosecutor Villanueva doesn't want to settle yet."

"P-po? who is that?"

"I"

From behind me I heard a loud voice, so I immediately turned around, I was surprised because he was a prosecutor.

"Do you have a problem if I don't want to fix it?" It said coldly. He came closer to me, and leaned his hand on the table.

"Reckless imprudence resulting in damage to property, The case I filed against you, Miss?"

It's pure, Why don't you want to forgive simple damage, it's a mess.

"Sir, please I don't want to go to jail" I begged

"Then...I hope you're careful!"

"You will be jailed for 30 days miss" said the investigator.

"Don't be..." This is an annoying animal, a man!

"Brother...I mean sir, maybe I'm just in a hurry because you know I'm going to take an exam"

"No."

He said it coldly, so I just held my forehead, I'm about to explode a little with annoyance here

"Please forgive me"

"You're facing thirty days in jail, and you're still asking me to forgive you? Is this really your best attempt to get away with this? You damaged property and put people at risk with your recklessness. I don't understand how I'm supposed to forgive that."

"I was really in a hurry, please I will pay for what I damaged" I immediately answered him

"Money doesn't fix everything. You could offer me all the money in the world, and I would still send you to jail for what you did"

I raised an eyebrow at him "Oh really?"

"I'm not kidding. Miss?"

"You don't seem to realize the severity of what you've done. You're looking at a minimum of thirty days in jail, but if I had my way, I'd give you at least six months. Maybe that would be enough time to teach you some responsibility."

"Six months? Are you fooling me, if I can pay, why can't I?" I said to him irritated. I noticed it took a deep breath before looking at me

"This isn't about the money. This is about responsibility. You need to learn that actions have consequences...And those consequences can be serious. If I let you buy your way off the hook, you won't learn anything. You'll just be a brat who thinks they can get away with anything by throwing money at it."

"Wait a minute, are you a prosecutor or a professor, you've passed the lecture today!"

"It's not a lecture, it's a lesson."

"The fact that you're acting like this just proves how immature and irresponsible you really are. Maybe a few months in prison will be good for you." He smirked

"Immature? irresponsible? What are you implying? Huh?" I narrowed my eyes, ready to lash out at him

"Do I have to spell that out, just so you understand? You're an irresponsible and immature brat. You think you can get away with anything, and when you don't get your way, you throw a fit like a child."

I growl under my breath and clench my fists, trying to control myself. If it weren't for the situation we were in, I would slam him against the wall and make him regret ever even looking at me that way.

"Look at that. See how angry you're getting?" He said with a patronizing tone. "You can't even control yourself right now."

"Tell me, if you want to lock me up, lock me up, don't do it" I said to him irritably, I glared at him.

"You're dàmn right, I'm going to send you to prison for this. You know what? Just for that comment, I'm going to push to give you six months instead of just thirty days. See if you learn a thing or two in there." He said, trying to conceal his smirk.

That shit, wait...When I become a lawyer, I'll fire you! Wait? can the lawyer remove the prosecutor?

"Caliee" I was brought back to my senses when someone called my name.

"What happened?" Avery immediately asked me, I didn't look him in the eye. Avery even surpassed a parent no.

"This...going to be imprisoned for 30 days, shit." I cheerfully opened up to him and laughed sarcastically

"Huh? What did you do?" She asked, and hugged me.

I looked at her, my eyes filled with confusion and fear. "I damaged a car!" I said, my voice barely a whisper. "I wasn't careful to express myself, because I was in a hurry, and now I'm facing a 30-day sentence because of that crazy prosecutor."

Her eyes widened in surprise, "Can't it just be a fine?" She asked, her voice filled with concern.

"I don't know about that crazy person, I thought his car was worth millions" I rolled my eyes

She sighed and tightened her grip around me, "What are we going to do then? Wait, let me try to talk to that prosecutor, hmm?"

"Why, do you know?" I asked her seriously

"We understand, please"

I waited for hours, Avery took so long to convince that guy, it's annoying, why is that guy like this, is he crying

"AVERY!" I shouted, which caused me to get everyone's attention

"Hey, maybe you're forgetting that you're in the precinct, girl?"

"Oops, sorry." I covered my mouth as everyone looked at me.

"So, what? Did you convince him?" I asked.

"Yeah, luckily he's my college classmate, he just took the bar exam earlier than us. You didn't mention it was Caleb, by the way"

"Did I know! That guy with the cry is your college mates"

"Thank you, friend, that's why I love you so much. Don't worry, I'll treat you to a snack later" I said, wrapping my arm around her.

Before we could leave the precinct, that guy appeared in front of us again, does he have a breed?

"You're lucky, woman. Your friend begged me"

It's still my conscience, it's good to be punched, it's annoying to make a face "Oh, you're there" I shouted.

"Are you shouting at me?" one of his eyebrows raised, isn't it obvious that he is deaf?

"Isn't it obvious?" I raised an eyebrow at him, clearly asking.

"Do you want me to return the case I filed against you?!"

"Oh, of course not, I'm just kidding, it's not funny" I patted his arm

I grabbed Avery and left, I was afraid that if I didn't control myself, I might become a múrderer and stab this Caleb.

"I feel like he has a crush on me," I said to Avery, making her laugh.

"Huh? You? Girl, he's not into spoiled brats. Besides, as far as I know, he's engaged, so don't assume it's that bad.."

"But... he's handsome" I said here and laughed angrily

"ISA CALISTA AZALEA HARRISON" She shouted so I covered my mouth

"I'm just kidding right"

The next morning. I'm sitting on the couch, reading a book. I'm wearing an oversized sweater and my hair is still a mess.

I sigh, closing the book and taking out my phone. I check my social media notifications, when you're done I'm ready I just took a shower.

When I finish taking my shower, I brush my teeth and put on some comfy clothes. All this time, I've been thinking about the last thing that happened between me and that damn prosecutor

I exit the bathroom and head for the kitchen, where I pour myself a cup of coffee. I start drinking it as I stare out of the window, lost in thought

As I finish my cup of coffee. I looked at the clock. It's been an hour since I woke up, and my day is already going terribly. I sigh and decide to get some breakfast.

I prepare my breakfast, which consists of sausage and bacon with toast, I'm not on a diet right now. I bring the plate to the table and sit down, trying to enjoy the food

I try to focus on my breakfast, but I can't help thinking about my last exchange with that gódàmn prosecutor again, I start grinding my teeth as I take a bite of the food.

"Bwisít, you're messing with me until I eat, aren't you?" I said to myself

I put my fork down and sigh. Then I decided to ignore the stupid prosecutor and just focus on my food instead.

The bar exam suddenly entered my mind, what if I don't pass?

I shake my head as I take another bite of my food. The thought of failing the bar exam haunts me, and I start feeling anxious about it. I put down the fork I was holding, 'cause I'm losing my appetite from thinking too much. I put what I ate in the sink.

I sit back down at the table and take a deep breath. "I need to calm down and stop overthinking. I have studied hard for the bar exam and I know I can pass it." I said, trying to calm myself down

We waited for months for bar exam results, which are usually released by the Supreme Court. Every night and every passing day was filled with anxiety and tension to me.

I pace back and forth in front of the window, my heart pounding from the thought of whether I passed or failed. "What's up Calista, you did your best?"

In the next morning, where is the day I dreaded, and everything. The result will be known.

I just took a shower, I put on the long sleeve that daddy gave me, my bottom was a long skirt, I was surprised when the door opened, it's Avery and Jia.

I look at them with wide eyes, and they look back at me just as nervously. "Caliee" they both shouted hugging me

They both hug me tightly, and I can feel their heartbeat pounding against my body. I'm so nervous, too, but I try to remain calm and not appear as anxious as they are.

"Are you good at hugging, Jia?" I agree

"Daig is still taking it..." Avery added.

Avery laughed lightly, trying to hide her own anxiety. "Calista and I can pass"

"Of course, the results are very anxious." I told them.

"Just calm down guys" said Jia

"Duh! I can't calm down until there are results," I laughed. I'm just like that, but deep inside, I'm trapped by nerves.

"Me too. Look, my heart is already palpitating," Avery said, pointing to his chest.

The next morning is the day when the results will be released usually because he is being arraigned in the Supreme Court. Every night and every passing day was filled with anxiety to me, I was so nervous that I couldn't sleep.

"CALIEEEE!" Avery yelled at me.

"This is the day! omg are you ready?" This is a question.

"I-I don't know, can I really do it? What if I fail, what if I don't pass?" I asked him, both of my eyes were almost bulging with excitement.

"What, you can do it, you're going to be a lawyer! hmm?" I nodded to him. We used daddy's car. Mom and dad couldn't come with me to see the results themselves, so I don't even know if they support me.

We waited for a few hours, there were many people with us, some old, some my age, almost mixed.

Little by little, everyone's name and last name appeared on the screen, many of them stared because others had passed, while Avery and I were going to join.

When it came to the letter H, we looked for my surname "Harrison" but unfortunately it was not there

"Avery, nothing. I-I didn't pass!" Little by little my tears flowed down my cheeks.

When the letter T was done, Avery's last name and name came out "Avery Axiana Torres" Avery will be a lawyer, but she can't be happy if she sees me sad.

"Caliee, you're coming back next year, huh? He tried to comfort me.

I shook my head here and ran out. I hailed a taxi without bringing anything. I left my bag in the car that I brought earlier. "This is my brother," I gave my expensive gold bracelet to the driver as payment.

"Oh, ma'am, it's too expensive" It's obvious from the look of my gold bracelet that it's really expensive because of how shiny it is.

"take it first brother!"

I shouted here while sobbing, you can see the driver's reaction of surprise as if he is asking himself what he did wrong to me.

When I got out of the taxi I went straight into the mansion, I met manang ellie, but I didn't pay attention to it.

"Mom?" I called here, and he turned to hold me on my cheek because of a strong slap landed on my cheek.

"I-I'm sorry."

"You useless son!"

"Mom, I'll come back next year, I'll get better!"

"I don't have a stupid daughter!" A slap

it did it again on my other cheek.

I couldn't handle everything anymore, so I answered it, even though I knew there would be consequences when I did that.

"Mas..You have nothing to say! Who told you that I want this? Why are you the one not making the decision in my life? Why are you blocking my dreams? Why would I want to be a lawyer if that's what I have in mind? I am medicine!" I shouted, at the same time it gave me a strong push

"How dare you! I didn't swallow you to answer me, Calista! You really have nothing to say, I wish I would have just killed you, you animal!"

"I hope so! Because you're a worthless mother!"

"What? Get out, Get out! You don't have to say anything, not even a squint, Get out of my house!" He pushed me out, but manang ellie blocked but there was nothing she could do because she would lose her job.

"Ma'am don't--" He didn't finish speaking when mom's eyes widened.

"GET OUT YOU DON'T TAKE ANYTHING, NOT EVEN YOUR CLOTHES!"

I took my car that I had been saving since college, drove it and went to my daddy's club. When I got to the club, Nix immediately greeted me

"Hey, look who's here!" Nix shouted

He put his arms around me, I was trying to remove it, "Will you let me go, I'll remove your two eggs?"

"Hey, calm down, Calista. What happened? I heard the results came out, right? Did you pass?"

"Can you please leave me alone?"

"Oh?? Let me guess, you didn't pass, right?" he still grumbled

"I-I didn't pass." I said softly

"That's okay, bro."

"Gagó not okay, no!" I shouted at him so everyone who passed by looked at me.

"Yoah, why am I shouting against you here, let's get drunk.."

He handed me a glass of wine, but I chose to drink a bottle of whiskey instead. "Caliee, calm down, you might get drunk with that, it's not good bro."

"Edi màmàtay, let satànas take me, I don't fúcking care!"

I didn't realize that little by little I was getting drunk, I went to the dance floor and I danced and let out the pain I was feeling.

"Hey miss wanna join me?" The man behind me asked.

It's crazy, why does it seem like something is rubbing behind me "Hey, I have a lot of problems, don't add to it" I yelled at him as I poked him.

I lost control and went outside to get some fresh air. "I-I...I'm going home, help! I want to go to sleep, I don't want to drink anymore!" I shouted outside the club.

I want to get in my car, but I'm trying to open my car so I can't put the key in, "Who's going to lock it!" My language, even though I actually locked it.

When it was opened, I immediately started my car, around 11:00 am when I finished, there were not many people passing by so I sped up a little.

As soon as I unlocked it, I immediately started my car. It was already 11:00 pm when I finished, and there weren't many people passing by, so I slightly sped up while driving.

Until little by little it speeds up which scares me, I seem to have lost my drunk "A-av-very" I call my friend trying to get my phone out of my pocket, but I can't get it.

I'm still trying to stop the car after a few steps on the brake but it doesn't work, my tears fall

"What did I do, help"

I screamed, but there was no one at that time, I tried not to crash, when I saw a woman my age, she crossed where I was going, if I turned I would end up in a deep and watery part, I tried to shout at the woman to block her but she had a name.

"MISS TABI!" I shouted.

"Miss, please get out of there, please help me!"

I gave a strong impulse, at the same time as I did, the girl in the road was covered in her own blood, "W-what did I do?"

My two hands are shaking, as well as my knee, I'm not in the right frame of mind anymore, I feel a mixture of nervousness and fear at this time.

I called Nix to help me "N-nix I crashed" I was sobbing here

"Gagó, where are you? I'm going to see you, send me your location, now!"

he shouted, I could barely speak properly, "W-what am I going to do" I said while holding my cellphone, my hand was shaking and I couldn't hold my cellphone properly.

I sat down, no one is passing the time, this woman is bloody.

I waited a few minutes for Nix to come, "Caliee!" It screamed and hugged me.

"W-what should I do, Nix? I-I didn't mean for all of this to happen!" I shouted at him.

"Go home to your dad's hotel first, I'll take care of things here," He said and hugged me again.

I hesitated to get into Nix's car, what I knew he was going to do was call his people to take care of it, I don't know, I don't know!

"YOU STUPID CALISTA!" I shouted here.

I beat my chest, "What sin did I do, why are you punishing me?"

"I-I'm sorry, I'm not a dying person!"

My clothes are full of blood, I can't be seen like this inside the hotel, so I got dressed, Nix left a hoodie so I put it on, as soon as I entered I was greeted by people, no I can't speak, and I'm just dumbfounded that I didn't even ask what free room.

"Ma'am Calista? Is that your key?" the female employee here at the hotel reached me.

"W-Ah? Me? W-What?"

A strong ray of sunlight hit my eyes, so I squinted, suddenly someone knocked on my door.

"M-Ma'am Calista, here's your breakfast," She smiled as she reached for my food.

"thank you"

I smiled at him, "Hey, thank you, it was all just a dream, I really thought I had killed myself!" I laughed sarcastically to myself

I left the hotel, Nix greeted me, so I congratulated her.

"Nix" I shouted at him.

"Calie!"

I can see the sadness and nervousness in Nix's eyes, I don't know why he is reacting like this.

"Oh? Why do you look so sad to see me?" I asked him

"It's okay now."

"Huh?" I asked him, I didn't know what he was telling me.

He furrowed his brow and hugged me tightly. "Calie, everything's fine, you won't go to jail."

"Huh? what are you talking about?" I said sarcastically to him

"Caliee, that accident girl, she's on a hill now"

My eyes almost watered at what he said, does that mean it wasn't a dream? Did I really kill the girl in my dream? does that really exist? how, why?

"I'll go to him" I said here but he pulled my arm closer to him.

"You can't go to his hill, Caliee, it's not family"

"I s-killed him?" I sat on the floor sobbing, tears running down my cheeks

"Caliee, everything was an accident, not your fault."

"What did I do?" I asked him while holding my chest, I hit it while sobbing, no one tried to stand me up, everyone was staring at me. But no one tried to approach me.

"Caliee, stand up, it's not your fault, it's okay that you can live a good life again, okay?"

I shook my head at this, he hugged me tightly, and put my head on his chest while he stroked my black hair.

He took me to my room, he handed me water but I was still stunned and thinking about what happened.

I took my bag and reached for the envelope with only money, "give it to the woman's family" I reached for it.

"Calista, you'll get into trouble. What will they think if you give them money?"

"Tell them... I'm a friend of..."

"See! You don't even know my name, what do you expect me to do?!"

"Donate, just give that to the girl's family" I shouted here

"Ca-Calista" It whispered my name softly

"Get out!" I shouted, it was no choice to leave in front of me.

"You don't have friends màmàtay man, múrdérer me!" I almost lost my breath 'cause I found out, I just stared at my hands

I soiled my hand, I'm a dead man!

I lay in the room, crying and wondering what to do. I soiled my hand, and I feel the weight of the mistake I made. I can't believe I was part of a tragedy. The word "" keeps repeating itself in my mind. I don't know how to deal with my sins. My life changed in an instant, and I don't know how I can get it back, how I can solve it.

"Ma'am calista, there has been trouble down there for a while now." The female employee said.

"Will you let me in, or will I sue you all?" The man said the guard was pulling him away but it was forced, I took it out and saw Caleb?

"W-What?"

He came near me and pushed me so that I leaned against the wall.

"You killed my fiance, die man, the day you killed him, I was talking to him and I heard your voice!"

"FÚCK YOU I'LL MAKE SURE TO HOLD YOU TO THE BARRIER!"

"I-I didn't s-kill him!" When I refused, he insisted on pushing me against the wall.

"You're a liar! You even sent money, for what? To make it seem like you can afford my fiancée's life? You're just rich, Calista! Remember, I... myself will be the one to pass judgment on you, leading to your death!"

After he finished saying all those hurtful words, he left me standing and full of worry. "How is she? Caleb's F-Fiancée is the one I ran into?"

I almost collapsed when he said to me, "I didn't kill him, I killed him" When I denied myself.

"Ma'am, Calista, are you all right, I just want to ask who is that?" asked the woman earlier who was holding Caleb.

A man I wish I would never see again.

I went back inside the hotel, I arranged everything with my stuff when suddenly Avery called me.

I've been out of my mind for a few days, restless about what Caleb will do next, what if he doesn't stop me?

I was thrown back when Avery called me.

"Calista...Caleb, fiancée, it's her last day on the hill, maybe you want to take a peek?" He asked me on the cellphone, Nix had already told him. I really have nothing to hide.

"Send me the location" I said here before hanging up the cellphone.

When I came to the hill where the woman I ran into felt the weight of sorrow around. Many people grieve and express their grief over the loss of a good person. I saw Caleb's friends and relatives waiting in front of the casket, my face covered, 'cause I didn't want Caleb to recognize me.

I quietly approached the coffin and looked at the coffin, but after a few moments I moved away, I stayed outside the funeral. I saw Caleb who was now in front of his fiance's coffin, the pain was obvious on his face, and he was angry with me.

When someone suddenly approached me from behind, "Hija? why didn't you come inside?" this offer is probably in its fifties.

"N-Not anymore."

"Oh gosh, what's up with Krisella?"

"Me? I'm one of those who want to be Krisella's friend" I tried not to let my tears fall, but it was hard.

"Oh..why are you crying, stop it. I'm Krisella's mom, it's a shame she won't recognize that" I could feel the hurt in her heart, her voice was breaking little by little, she couldn't stop crying either.

Mom, who are you talking to?" I immediately turned around when suddenly someone called the woman I was talking to, it's Caleb.

"Miss? why didn't you come in?"

"Don't do it"

I tried to change my voice so that he wouldn't notice, but he faced me and I could feel his gaze from head to toe.

"C-Calista?" It's a bad manner, wait, why did he recognize me? I almost couldn't breathe in my cover.

"I-I'm not calista"

When I refused, but he pulled me out, which got everyone's attention, he pushed me so that I took off my hat and shades.

"Tànginà, your face is also thick, isn't it, your lime is thick to show here, don't you have a conscience?"

"I-I just want to see Krisella at least in the end---"

I was surprised when it broke the vase in front of me "No one needs your presence, will you run away or shall I kill you?"

I knelt in front of him and touched his feet, which made everyone look at him and startled, "Please, it's not my fault, I'm not doing anything wrong, believe me" I begged.

"Son, what's going on, he's Krisella's friend!" Krisella's mother scolded us.

Mom! That girl is going to die, you shouldn't believe what the múrdérer is saying!"

He looked at me in the eyes, there was pain and hurt in his eyes.

"No...we should hurry, Caleb. No one knows what happened."

"Ma, I know it's him, I heard him!" It screamed

"Caleb, just respect Krisella's hill, please, she's a girl, don't hurt her"

"I only respect Krsella and you, not this fúcking woman

He looked at me badly, and left in front of us "Are you alright hija?"

"O-opo, won't you throw me away?"

"I'm angry, Yes. It's inevitable, I'm a mother, but no one knows everything that happened, so I shouldn't judge, Caleb should be patient first, he loves Krisella, they were supposed to get married, but this tragedy happened".

I felt a little relief from what he said, because...when he also rejected me and judged me, I might also be angry with myself.

I didn't take too long because almost everyone was looking at me, "Uhmm... ma'am, please accept this, ahh... maybe you will think of it as a bribe, oh what, I just want really give it to me, it's okay even if you get mad at me, no problem" I reached here with the envelope.

"Hija, I'm not tired--" He was about to return the envelope but I stopped him.

It stopped speaking when I said "Just that, please.

No choice he took what I gave, my conscience would kill me so much if I didn't help. I know they hate me. But I also know myself that everything is an accident.

When I got home, I couldn't forget everything about how Caleb humiliated me. When I got in Avery Immediately asked me.

"Are you okay, Callie?" Avery asked me, but my attention wasn't on him, as if Caleb's words were already imprinted on my cock.

"Psst, hey are you alright?" It's a question again

Ah..ah? Yes, I'm fine."

"Did Caleb embarrass you on Krisella's hill?" He asked me, shit, that news spread so fast, there must be a lot of gossips, really bad people

"Do you have two or five eyes? You know everything" I said to him and he laughed

"It's me, no one can keep secrets from me, when you're tired, Calista. Just say I'm here, I'll lift you up!"

"What's the news about aunt Vivianne, are you still making money?"

"I've been kicked out, I'm staying at daddy's hotel"

"Huh? He frowned and hugged me, "Bessy, high bank"

What is bank height? I will ask.

"Cheerup"

"You're being silly, Avy"

"Come here, I'll hug you tightly, this Jia, he's just playing pranks" I laughed at what he said, "Caleb is just like that, but deep down inside he has a good heart"

"I don't think so." Avery and I laughed at what I said.

As we laughed together, I felt a sense of comfort and warmth in Avery's presence. It was moments like these that reminded me of the importance of friendship and support during difficult times.

Days turned into weeks, and Avery and I continued to be there for each other. We spent hours talking, sharing stories, It was through these conversations that I began to understand the complexities of Caleb's character and the impact he had on those around him.

One day, my quiet life was disrupted when someone knocked on my hotel room.

"I am prosecutor Villanueva, I am placing you under arrest for the alleged múrdér. The evidence against you is substantial, and it is my duty to ensure that justice is served. You have the right to remain silent, and anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You also have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be provided for you. Please cooperate as we proceed with the legal process."

"Huh?"

I was about to try to speak and defend myself when he handcuffed me

"N-I didn't kill him!"

"Let me go." when I struggle

"I told you, I myself will take you to the railing, and you will experience holding the railing, actually it's not enough for kílling my fiance."

I knelt down with both of my hands in handcuffs, "please, I didn't do--"

It stopped me from speaking when the police stopped me, everyone was looking at me, everyone was whispering, there were many whispers that the son of the owner of the hotel was a murderer.

When we got to the Central Investigation Bureau, it made me sit down and I can be considered a suspect, I am now sitting inside the investigation room.

When Caleb entered he flipped the folder on the table "Confess it...so the conversation is over"

"I'm not guilty, I have nothing to confess, everything was an accident"

"You're drunk, aren't you?" This is a question.

"H-hin---"

I didn't even finish what I was going to say when he yelled at me "DO NOT MAKE ME STUPID"

He approached me, and pushed my forehead with his index finger "Since I saw you, I knew that you were capable of killing an innocent people"

"You don't know me, you don't know anything you can't judge me!" I screamed and took my anger out on him

He brought his face closer to mine, I could almost feel his every breath, "I'm a prosecutor, Calista! I'm not like you"

"If your family pays all the police and courts, I will still put you back where you belong."

It left me inside, I waited for a few hours to see who would come, if anyone would worry, maybe when I'm gone they'll only worry about me.

"Miss, Calista. Your parents are here" One of the detectives shouted.

"I-I'm s-sorry."

Two strong slaps hit my cheek, "How long are you going to embarrass me, Calista"

"Mom, that's not true, I didn't kill the girl, m--"

That's what I'm saying, so I should have killed you in my womb a long time ago, you're worthless, you didn't pass the bar exam, you didn't pass the commission, you passed Avery! Avery has a child, you don't have anything to eat, why don't you imitate Avery!

"Avery and I are different, I am not her, she is not me, Ma! I am not Avery!"

"Mrs Harrison, calm down, we're in the precinct, calm down"

"How much? one, three, how much tell me, do you need a million?" mommy promised without flakiness.

"Ma'am, because...I'm not the one in charge of the case, but.."

"Let the boy go, take the money from me later"

"Remember, Calista. It's not free, so fix your life as long as I don't mind the wheels you're making" He said while leaving in front of me.

"You can leave, Ms Harrison" said the detective and removed my handcuffs.

That's it, I'm right, money is really the battle, but what's the use of money if my opponent has a position and is willing to do everything just to punish me?

I went out of the precinct and sat outside, I cried all over so that when I cried and threw away all the pain, it was another challenge.

Bending down, at the same time as my tears flowed, fresh air touched my skin, "Why? life is so unfair."

What do I have to do to tell the whole world that I'm innocent, less than an hour, I'm in the news. Funny to think, I tarnished the last name that my family has kept.

Why is this world so sick, I just want someone who will love me, I don't want an enemy. I want to be happy
