Avah's pov

Sarah put her hand over his wound trying to stop the bleeding, Brandon was holding his bleeding neck and whining in pain. The second shot was on Kris' side, they have shot each other. He was only alive because the bullet went through the side of his neck.

"K-kill him Sarah" I heard Brandon say to her, she was shaking trying to stop the blood but he pushed her towards the gun. I quickly ran towards Kris and grabbed his gun pointing it towards Sarah.

"Avah? Please listen to me, I'm not the bad guy. I can explain everything" Sarah said taking a step forward, my hand was shaking and I knew deep down I couldn't shoot anyone, let alone Sarah. I could see Brandon going trying to reach the gun, I couldn't let him do that. I closed my eyes and pulled the trigger.

I opened my eyes and I saw he pulled his hand away, I quickly run towards the second gun while still aiming at Sarah and kicked it under the car. Suddenly Sarah's fake genuine face turned into a creepy smile.

"You know Avah, I'm tired of pretending to like you..." She said whipping the blood on her clothes, I couldn't speak. I would've cussed her ass.

"Your boyfriend isn't of a need anymore, I just needed someone to blame so I can get everything for myself" she said with a smirk, she quickly pulled a gun from the back of her waist and shot Brandon right in the head.

"What the fuck!" Kris yelled horrified, I was confused and terrorized as I started at the gun aimed towards me.

"Poor Avah, the girl who's been abused all her life. Avah this, Avah that. I'm tired! I'm done! You took everything from me Avah Rogers. I loved him first, he was mine first. Even Kris gave you more attention than me" she said casually, she was jealous of my abuse? What kinda of psycho is she? Who desires an abusive partner? Who wants a perverted father? I was too invested in her sayings and my own questions that I didn't even notice she got closer to me. She was only a few steps away.

"But now this is my chance to end the life of the Avah Rogers, say hi to Brandon for me" she aimed the gun to head and a loud gun shot was heard. 

I felt something splash against my face and I opened my eyes to find Sarah on the floor with her head busted open.

"You good Sir?" I heard a manly voice behind me, I let go of the gun and turned to see who it was. Dozens of men dresses in black suits with guns were surrounding us, two of them helped Kris on his feet.

"You Clean this shit, and you, take the lady to the court house where my father is located." Kris ordered, I ran to the car and opened the door and hugged Nadine. She grabbed into me with dear life and cried.

"Check this car before burning it" Kris order his men,

We both were escorted to a different car and the man took us to the court house, Nadine was laying on my lap. The man was helping me to walk up the stairs because I was feeling weak and drained of energy but I still kept a tight grip on Nadine.

He pushed the door for me and I walked inside, all eyes were on. The Martins, the judge, the juries, the guests. I felt two arms try to grab me and pull my kid away from me but the judge stopped them.

I was asked to step to the middle of the court and handed a pen and a notepad where I'll be able to write my statements that will be read by Katrina. 

"Miss Rogers, did your father Mr Rogers ever hurt you physically or sexually?" The other lawyer asked me, I shook my head no but he didn't prevent Brandon from doing that.

"Did you ever see him beat or sexually abuse your daughter?" I've never seen him, but with what my daughter has told me and Kali. And the bruises on her little body I know it's the truth, so I shook my head no.

"No more questions your honor" he said and went back to his seat, Katrina stood up and faced me.

"Miss Rogers when was the first time your saw your daughter after the trip?" I grabbed the pen and started writing, when I was done I cut the page and handed it to Katrina who started reading immediately.

"The first time I saw my daughter, was when Kali and I went to get her from my dad's house. I stayed in the car and a few minutes later, Kali ran out of the house with my daughter in her arms." Katrina read out loud and then handed the paper to the judge so she can make sure it was indeed what I wrote.

"Did you see your father that day Miss Rogers?" I shook my head no,

"How did you know that your father was molesting your daughter?" She asked me again, I started writing remembering what Kali has told me and then Nadine confirmed it later.

"My daughter told Kali about it first and then she told me. When we got home, I was showering Nadine and I saw bruises all over her body. Places like her inner thighs, which couldn't possibly be a bruise from falling or school" Katrina read out loud, I waited for her to ask me something else.

"Lastly Miss Rogers, did you see Kali Martin kill your father?" I shook my head no.

"No further questions, your honor" Katrina smiled at me with a nod and went back to her seat.

"Your daughter has told you and Miss Martin that her Grandfather, Mr Rogers, has been sexually assaulting her?" The judge asked and I nodded my head, before I could move or go back to sit with the other guests.

"Grandpa would help me in the bathroom and he'd take picture of me, and, and when I go to bed he'd sleep on my bed with me because I'm scared of monsters and he'd touch my leg" Nadine said out of the blood making everyone in the room go silent, she looked at me and I smiled with a small nod encouraging her to continue.

"Kali took me to my mom and now I don't want to see grandpa anymore, because he is very angry with me. He hit me because I spilled soda on the table, I said sorry but he was angry" my daughter cried while whipping her tears, I could tell the judge was touched with what Nadine said.

I was asked to go take a seat while the juries talked about their decision. I sat next to Carolina who whipped my face with her sleeves.

"Are you okay?" She asked, I nodded my head with a small smile. 

"In the case of Kali Martin and the murder of Leroy Rogers. And suite to variable arguments and evidence, along with the testimony of Avah Rogers and her four year old daughter Nadine Wester. Here is the decision that the court has made" the judge said grabbing papers from the police man standing next to her seat.

"The defendant, Kali Martin has plead guilty on first degree murder and will be sentenced to 4 years with the possibility of parole after 24 months in federal prison" the judge tapped her wooden hammer shocking everyone, there wasn't room to argue with the judge. We just had to accept it, I felt my heart drop as I watched the judge stand up ready to leave.
