Through another Child~ By Briana
Chapter fourteen: Court! Part one
Ryanna held in a deep breath as her, Bulma and Michael sat in the defendant seat of the courtroom. "All rise for the honorable Judge Chow." A tall dark haired man walked in the judge's seat. "You may be seated." Matt looked at Ryanna and smirked. Ryanna frowned and held Michael close to her. "Mrs. Briefs, you may call your first witness, and begin your questioning." Bulma nodded and got up. "For my first witness I would like to call Sakura Kumara." Sakura took a deep breath and approached the bench. She swore the truth and sat down. "Ms. Kumara, how long have you known Ms. Coutsa'n?" "Four years this June, Mrs. Briefs." "How did you meet her?" Sakura adjusted her seat. "Well I drive taxis; I picked Ryanna up from the airport. She wanted to go to a cafe. On the way there I could tell something was really bugging her so when we got there I offered to buy her a latte and she told me what happened." Bulma nodded. "What did she tell you?" "She told me that she found out she was pregnant with her long-term boyfriends baby, and that he wanted nothing to do with her or the baby."
Matt scowled. "And what did you do after that?" "I asked her if she had anyplace to go. She said yes but didn't really want to face them." "Why was that?" Sakura sighed and looked to Ryanna. "She said that her whole life her friends and family looked up to her. That they respected her, and she didn't want to loose that because she made a mistake." "What mistake is that?" "She shouldn't have had sex with that bastard sitting in that chair." Several people gasped, Ryanna covered Michaels ears but tried to hide a giggle, and Matt was two inches away from killing Sakura. Bulma hid a chuckle. "I'm done with my questioning your honor." "Mr. Shang would you like to question the witness?" "Yes your honor." Matt's attorney stepped up. "Mrs. Kumara, did Ms. Coutsa'n have any proof that my client didn't want the child?" "he only real evidence were her tears." "Though she could have been crying about something else."
Sakura gulped. "I'm done with questioning this witness your honor." "You mat step down Ms. Kumara." "Now that that is down I would like to call Ryanna Coutsa'n to the stand." Ryanna gulped and handed Sakura her baby. She approached the bench, swore the truth and sat down. "Ms. Coutsa'n how long did you and my client date?" "About two years sir." "And when did you decide to have sex with him?" "About seven months after we decided to date." Mr. Shang smirked making Ryanna nervous. "How man times have you had sex with him." Ryanna blushed. "Why don't you ask him?" "I'm asking you, now answer." Ryanna tried to hide her tears. "I don't know exactly." "So don't you think you could have been somewhat aware of your consequences." Ryanna was getting mad. "You're making it sound like I didn't want the baby in the first place." "Well did you? After all Ms. Kumara told us you thought it was a mistake that you had sex with Mathew." Ryanna was in tears. "I was so happy when I found out that I was pregnant. The only reason I though it was a mistake was because of Matt. He didn't want anything with me except fuck me. He didn't care about me or the fact I was pregnant which made it clear when I caught him with another woman!"
Several gasps were heard and Ryanna had broke down in tears. "This case will take a recess until nine o' clock tomorrow morning. until then court is adjourned." Ryanna stepped down from the platform and walked over to her son. Matthew went over to her and smirked. "The way this court is going I will have my son by Friday." Ryanna looked at him tears flowing down her face. "Why are you doing this?" Matt smirked. "I can't loose my bank account can I now?" He tapped her cheek and left, Michael frowned and stuck his tongue at the man. Ryanna smiled and hugged her son. "Don't worry mommy won't let anything happen to you." Michael hugged his mother tightly. Outside trunks had just arrived from work and was looking at the scene smiling. "You're a great mother Ryanna, don't let anyone tell you other wise."
