092 One year imprison
Ava
It was finally the day for Capo to be brought to court, and be judged. My whole family members including Nicklaus’s parents were all present, I know Capo made a mistake with the lifestyle he chose, but one can easily tell he’s not a bad person, back then he took care of me, he treated my injuries and fed me with good food, he kept me company and told me nothing will happen to me
He made me realize Kelly was not a bad person and he also said he never knew the type of person Sherly was till she shot him. He said the only reason why he’s living this kind of lifestyle was to see his only sister through school, they lost their parents at a young age and since then he’s been the only one taking care of his kid sis, he left school just so his sister can make it
He also said he’s living this lifestyle because of life challenges, after I woke up from coma, I searched for Capo’s sister whose name was Genny, I enrolled her in a better college, after all, I promise Capo back then that I’ll help him, I don’t want his sister to know he’s in prison and that’s why I sent her to Canada to continue her studies and assured her that Capo is fine and will come visit her soon
I don’t want her to know the lifestyle her brother choose in other to see her through school, I don’t want to see her having herself and blaming herself for anything and that’s why I’ve decided to help Capo after all he helped the police kill Sherly they were going to kill her after all and Capo has not killed anyone before,
I stood at the court and was on Capo’s side, I made the judge understand that Capo was only a victim of circumstance and that the police were going to kill Sherly anyway, besides Capo surrendered he didn’t try to run, Sherly has done lots of evil and deserves the death she got
I pleaded with the judge to have mercy on Capo and allow him to serve a little punishment just to make up for his past mistakeNôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
I had my lawyers with me, and they are all here on behalf of Capo
“Your honor, I think Miss Ava is right, Mr. Capo has no criminal record, this is his first case, and the police could have killed Miss Sherly and the fact that Mr Capo didn’t run is more evidence that he deserves a second chance” One of my lawyers addressed
After several investigations and interrogations, Capo was still standing on the dock as we all wait for the judge to pass her final verdict, our heartbeat, as well as that of Capo, I can see the fear in his eyes, the regret of his past action everything was clear
My heartbeat reverberated as the judge was about to pass the final judgment, guess Nicklaus saw how anxious I was, he held onto my hand and blinked at me, assuring me that everything
“I hear by….. sentence Mr Capo Ronald to one-year imprisonment with hard labor to pay up for his past mistakes and with this, I hear by close this case”
I was happy, at least after one year he’s finally going to be free again, I looked at Capo and saw the happiness on his face,
“Told you he’s going to be fine” Nick whispered,
“Thank you for all the support” I muttered smiling, we all walked up to Capo, the police were ready to take him away
I walked up to him, and without saying anything I embraced him in a warm hug
“Thanks for everything Ava, I really appreciate”
“Don’t worry Capo, I’ll take good care of your sister and visit you from time to time till you’re finally free”
I pulled away and watched as they cuff him
“Be safe man” Nick said to him, we watched as they took him away, he couldn’t stop turning back to look at us and finally he was out of sight ready to serve his punishment, just one year and he’ll be out
Finally, Sherly is out of our lives for good, everything is becoming peaceful just like before.
“Don’t worry dear one year will be over soon, it’s just a short time” Nick assured me and I smiled laying my head on his chest as we all left the court,
“So what next?” I asked him as we sat in the car ready to drive home
“Time to have our real wedding, and this time no Sherly no problem, everything will be as peaceful as ever, are you ready my heartbeat?”
“Yes!!!” I screamed happily
“Time to plan our wedding, my dream wedding with my childhood best friend, my lover, and the father of my children, a dream come true, who says we can’t dream?”
