Finally the day has come, the day where this all will end. I wore my black coat on with proudness, staring at my reflection. I looked at my phone to see Sagar's text saying 'All the best'. I smiled and replied back to him. "Here goes nothing" I mumbled, swinging my bag onto my shoulder, holding my important files in my hand as I left the hotel. I sat in my car and drove to the court. I parked my car and got out only to see Vicky pulling over next to me. 

Without even greeting them, I walked inside and greeted the other lawyers. "Good Day Miss Healer" a lawyer also known as Mr Bolt smirked at me. I mentally rolled my eyes and gave him a fake smile. "Good day" I nodded at him. "May the best lawyer win" he smirked at me. I just stood there, giving him a blank look. "You are defending Rapists Mr Bolt, may the right one win" I stated with calmness and walked into the hall, greeting lawyers and other people while I organised my desk. 

"Would you like a coffee?" a helper who worked here asked me politely. I glanced at my watch to see I had 10 minutes. I smiled at her and nodded, "Yes please, thanks dear". She came back with my coffee after a few minutes making me thank her. I sat down on my chair with my hot coffee besides me. I opened my files to re-check if I had everything I needed. 

All of a sudden a loud thud sound with a voice saying "All rise, this court is now in session" was heard causing everyone to stand up. I stood up with respect as the judge walks in. "You all may be seated" he spoke with a firm yet loud voice making us all sit down in our seats. I glanced behind me to see the group sitting there, Vicky wrapping his arm around Sona who had tears in her eyes. I glanced at Ezhil, whose eyes were just stuck on me. I quickly looked back at the front, my hands shaking slightly as I took deep breaths. 

The judge then introduced the trail and asked for the session to be started. Mr Bolt stands up, giving me glance as he smirked at me. "Your honour I am here today to defend a group of boys for being accused of the gangrape of Miss Butt" he spoke in a confident tone. I heard a whimper behind me while he uttered those words. "I would like to bring in my clients into the witness box my honour" he bowed his head. The judge nodded giving him permission as he brought in those monsters. 

I heard Sona sob quietly while Vicky whispered sweet nothings in her ear to comfort her. One of the boys were brought into the witness box by the police, his hands handcuffed behind his back as he glared at everyone with anger. Mr Bolt stood next to his client with the holy book wrapped in a red cloth. "Do you Mr Jake Smith swear that evidence that you shall give shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth" he spoke, raising the book in front of Jake. 

Jake looked at book with fear but then shrugged his shoulders repeating Bolt's words. "Now Mr Jake, would you tell me how you know Miss Butt?" Bolt asked as he walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. Jake gulped and glanced at Sona behind me. "I..I don't know her. S-she was j-just walking down the street and suddenly s-started screaming, accusing me and my friends of rape" sweat ran down his temples as he gulped again. 

I leaned back, a humourless smile on my face as I watched him shiver with fear. Oh boy, you have no chance Jake. "Hmmm, so you see your honour my client was accuse-"

"Objection your honour" I stood up as I stared at the judge. He looked at me and nodded giving me the permission to speak. I glanced at Bolt who sneered at me. "With your permission, could I please bring out the victim of this case, Miss Sona Butt" I asked with confidence. "Permission granted" the judge spoke making me turn to look at Sona. 

She looked at me with watery eyes, her body shaking with fear as she clutched onto Vicky's hand. "Come Sona, this is your chance" I gave her a soft look. She wiped her tears and slowly stood up walking into the witness box. Her palms were fisted beside her, her legs wobbly as she looked down to her feet. 

"Your honour Mr Jake Smith is lying about not knowing Miss Butt, in fact instead of Miss Butt screaming and accusing Mr Smith of rape, the opposite had happened. At 7.30pm Miss Butt and her boyfriend Mr Mandel had gone out to get some medicine for their friend but while walking back home she was harassed by 4 boys, one of them being Mr Smit-"

"Objection your honour, this is-"

"Objection your honour please let me finish" I cut him off. The judge looked at me and gave me a nod to continue. I mentally smirked at Bolt was glaring at me with anger. "As I was saying the boys had started to harass Miss Butt and also injured her boyfriend, Mr Mandel. She was violently gang raped by two of the boys while the other two had forcefully held Mr Mandel in a weak state" I stated. 

"Your honour, may I ask some questions to Miss Butt" Bolt asked while eying Sona. "You may" the judge granted permission. I sat back at my place and gave Sona and comforting look. 'Calm' I mouthed making her nod at me. After doing the oath, the questioning had started, "So Miss Butt, at the night of the incident what exactly happened?, please explain in full detail" he questioned her with a smirk. I clenched my jaw at his stupid question. 

Sona glanced at me and back at him. "M-me...m-me and Vicky w-were w-walking b-back f-from the chemist until o-one of t-the boys started to s-say s-some inappropriate things" her voice shook. "What were those words Miss Butt?" he asked shamelessly.

 'Motherfucker'

Sona looked down feeling uncomfortable as he body became stiff. "T-they were saying t-things l-like...like-" she gulped and looked down at her feet, her eyes now wet. "I object your hon-"

"Objection your honour, please let me question Miss Butt" Bolt cut me off. "You may continue Mr Bolt" the judge said making me grit my teeth as I sat back down in my seat, my palms fisting into balls. "So Miss Butt, what were you saying?" he smirked at her. Sona wiped her tears and held her head high. "They were harassing me, looking at me in the wrong way knowing that I was with another male. They cat-called me while I was walking until they s-said t-they will p-please me better t-than my boyfriend. V-vicky hearing their words became angry and hit them b-but, b-but one of t-the boys hit V-Vicky in the head and I was dragged a-away" Sona placed her hand over her mouth and cried. 

"How long have you and your boyfriend been dating?" he asked her. He sniffled and wiped her tears. "10 years" she replied back. "Hmm" he scratched his chin. "So, what evidence do you have to prove that you were raped Miss Butt as I'm sure you are not a virgin after dating your boyfriend for 10 years" he spoke with no shame. I gave him a disgusted look while hearing Vicky cuss him under his breath.

Sona's cheeks flushed as she looked away feeling uncomfortable with the question. "Objection your honour" I stood up with my files. "I have full evidence of Miss Butt's rape but first will you allow Mr Mandel to come into the witness box?" I asked with determination. 

"Permission granted" he stated. Sona walked back to her seat but not before hugging Vicky. He kissed her head and walked into the witness box, throwing daggers at Jake and the other boys who looked like they were going to piss their pants.

I needed Vicky to take over as Sona was breaking down in tears. Vicky stood with his held high, no fear in his eyes, just anger and only anger. "So Mr Mandel, what was the reason behind attacking Mr Smith?" Bolt asked. 

Vicky's jaw clenched as he gritted his teeth. "He disrespected my girl in front of me. People like him deserve to be locked in jail. We did nothing until they came up to us and started to pick up a fight. He said some disgusting things which I couldn't bear hear against my girlfriend, so as a protective partner I attacked him but I was one against 4. I was hit in the head making me lose my balance" he spat and pointed his finger at the boys, his eyes now red and watery. "they....they raped her....right in front of my eyes w-while I was helpless. They beat me until I couldn't even fight anymore. T-they forced me to watch those two strip her dignity a-away from her" Vicky snapped as tears rolled down his eyes. 

I looked at him not realising that tears were also rolling down my cheeks. I quickly wiped them before anyone saw them. Bolt stood there stunned, not knowing what to say. "Your honour, by your permission, I want to question Mr smith about the incident" I stood up. 

"Permission granted" the judge agreed. I walked towards Jake and stood in front of him, wearing a cold expression on my face. "You said that Miss Butt all of a sudden just started screaming and accused you and your friends of rape right?" I asked to which he hesitantly nodded his head too. "Hmm but you said you didn't know her at all so why would she walk on the street with her boyfriend and randomly choose you boys to accuse of rape when you both don't know each other at all?" I tilted my head and gave them a mocking expression. Jake's face paled at my words. 

"I..I d-"

"Also you did not only rape but you and your pathetic friends have also harassed other girls who walk down that street. What are you?, some cheap street goons?" I snapped at them. Jake looked down not knowing what to say.

"Objection yo-"

"Allow me to finish my questioning your honour" I cut Bolt off. The judge gave me permission to proceed making me smirk at Bolt who threw daggers at me with his blue eyes. "I have full proof of what you did to Miss Butt, it's better to tell the truth rather than a lie Mr Smith because still in the end you are going to end up behind the bars" I raised my eyebrow at him. 

He gulped and looked at his lawyer before looking down at his feet. "Hmm Mr Smith?" I mocked him. "As you can see your honour, Mr Smith's silence answers all questions, it wasn't really that hard to find out the truth" I walked back to my table and took my file. "I have all the medical reports from when Miss Butt was admitted to the hospital after the incident happened and I also have photographs of the marks on her body as well as Vicky's body" I gave the file to man standing next to the judge. 

He handed the file to the judge who took his time to examine them. "Mr Smith, it's better for you if you confess right now" I gave him a blank look. "Your honour I Obje-", "Yes...Yes I...we did....w-we r-raped h-her, p-please...p-please f-forgive u-us...p-please, I d-don't w-want t-to b-be in j-jail, p-please, I am o-only young" Jake pleaded. 

"Well you should have thought about that before committing the sin" I hissed at him. The judge then slammed his hammer onto the table silencing everyone. We all sat back down waiting for the judge to speak. He whispered something into the man's ear before nodding and facing us all. 

"Please give us a moment to come up with our final decision" the clerk said. I turned around and looked at a crying Sona. "You did well, I am proud of you" I reached my hand over the bar and held her hand. She squeezed my hand and smiled at me with tears glistening her eyes. The thud sound came again making me turn back towards the Judge. 

He cleared his throat and opened his mouth to tell his final decision. I sat back and relaxed knowing it was going to be good news.

"I declare Mr Jake Smith, Mr Asher Brown, Mr Carter Johnson and Mr Peter Gosling guilty for raping Miss Sona Butt and attacking Mr Vicky Mandel and shall be prisoned for 8 years. The jury is thanked and excused. Court is adjourned" he spoke and slammed the wooden hammer again making me smile.

Everyone stood up when the Judge stood up. Once he left I turned to see the group only to see Sona crying with happiness. The group hugged and congratulated each other with happiness, wiping each other's tears as they cried. I secretly smiled and moved away from them. "Won another case huh?" Bolt suddenly spoke now standing next to me. I raised my eyebrow at him, "It wasn't a hard case you know, only if you had solid proof" I smirked at him. He chucked and pulled out his hand. "Congratulations for winning again Healer" I looked at his hand before shaking it. "Thank you". 

"Ezhi...Sona....how did it go?, did you win?" a voice suddenly spoke catching my intention. It was a women dressed up in a Indian saree. Her back was facing me as she hugged Sona kissing her forehead. She then turned around to hug Vicky but I froze when her eyes locked in with my mine.

My body became tense as she also froze, her footsteps now walking towards me. I knew one thing for sure, I could never forget that night, neither could I have ever forget this face. 

"You"

"You"

we both said at the same time, her eyes widening in shock while I stood there stunned before she threw her arms around my neck making me stumble back a few steps. 

"Oh Eyshana"
