“She came down from her bed and hugged me while we both burst into fresh tears, is okay mum she said on my shoulder while I kissed her hair and whispered to her don’t worry he is going to regret ever laying his hands on you for the rest of his life.
” I know my mum so well once she told you this phrase ” rest of his life ” please just run away because she is not longer the good woman again I smiled and say come on mum he deserved it am with you even if I don’t know what she wants to do with him but I know is gonna be a dreadful crime.

BEN POV (TEMI’S STEP FATHER )
” I wasn’t myself Since the day I raped Temi but you know what surprises me is that my wife never shows any sign of hateful to me, it seems like the girl didn’t tell her anything so I was happy within myself but something keeps telling me am gonna regret doing that to the innocent girl but I wave the thought off my mind.
” Temi was discharged a week after the incident and I went to pick her and her mother up even if I don’t want to go but to avoid suspicious from my wife who told me Temi confessed she aborted a pregnant that’s was why she passed out in her room but I know that’s a big lie but who am I to tell her so since she believed what her daughter says I decided to play along and you know what shocked me most was that Temi hugged me the moment she saw me telling me to forgive her for not been a good girl I looked at her mum’s face but I couldn’t read anything than the smile on her face.
” Is okay dear but don’t do such thing next time I said and told them to get into the car and off we went home.
